Default Unhappy

Hello, I’m hoping someone can help me out. I purchased the NX350 SPORT a couple months ago, I live in Illinois but the car is from Canada, everything in the car is programmed in kilometers and Celsius. I was told this was an easy fix just to bring it in to the dealer the next day and the mechanic can reprogram it. Soon to find out the only thing that can be reprogrammed in the menu is mph, everything else cannot be reprogrammed it would have to be shipped back to the manufacturer. I tried reaching out to the co owner and sales person and no response. Also, my payments are going directly to Lexus but Secretary of State shows the lien holder as a credit union in California no affiliation with Lexus. I purchased my car from a large Lexus dealer in Highland Park Illinois; what can I do at this point? This car should’ve never been brought to the U.S.

Read your Multimedia Manual and it has the instructions of how to change the units (mph, miles, mpg, psi, degrees F). Good luck. And if it were me, I'd find a new dealer to do service.

Yea, none of this requires a trip to the dealer, its all customizable in the infotainment system. Each unit type can be selected individually too, while I use metric units for speed, distance, and temp, I still use the old PSI for pressures.

It’s so easy, I googled it.. To change the temperature display from Celsius to Fahrenheit on a Nissan NX350 Sport, navigate to the vehicle's settings menu on the infotainment system, typically accessed by pressing the "Menu" button, then find the option for "Temperature Unit" and select "Fahrenheit" to switch from Celsius.

Learn metric - it's much more logical than American units of measurement.

There’s two kinds of countries in the world, those that have landed a man on the moon, and those on the metric system.

Actually, all project Apollo was metric. NASA, US military and aerospace industry converted to metric long time ago.

For the astronauts display, readouts were in units of feet, feet per second, and nautical miles. Let’s not talk about the mars climate orbiter. LOL.

Actually not entirely. NASA used metric system for calculations, but all displays were still using the imperial system during the Apollo missions. And as far as Aerospace, they still use the imperial system here in the United States, well at least large companies like Boeing and Honeywell.

One of NASA's greatest failures was when one of the engineers accidentally used US measurements instead of metric. Scratch one Mars orbiter.

As many others have already said this is not a problem to adjust in the menu on center screen. You can have the odometer and trip meters show miles, The speedometer shows miles per hour, the fuel economy gauge readout in miles per US gallon too.

Just to be clear though, did you buy a brand new or used NX from a Lexus dealer in the US? Or was the car originally a vehicle sold new in Canadian and it's been imported and brought across the border? If it's the latter you probably won't have an active factory warranty from Lexus.

Almost all 2022 -2025 NX (except 450H+ from Japan) are manufactured in Canada, so yes the statement 'the car is from Canada' is almost certainly right. I just want to understand what you mean by that.


If it's a car that's meant for US purchase then the car should have come off the truck setup for US measurements from the factory. Someone may have fiddled with the settings at some point possibly.
