I find it difficult to believe that so many solenoids would go out at the same time (but it's not impossible). So the first place I would check would be the fuses and relays supplying actuating current to the solenoids - probably in the IPDM; FSM will tell you for sure. While you have the IPDM open, use a voltmeter to verify you have the unlock signal coming from the BCM (or wherever it comes from) to the IPDM circuit board. How to find all those test points, fuses, relays, etc will be in the FSM; along with Nissan's troubleshooting procedures.
I did have one gone bad before, it was a 2011 FX50. Luckily, there’s a small access hole from the cabin where the solenoid was reachable...I ended up unplugging the power to it, became always unlocked until I had to to send the car to mechanic. Very frustrating when trying to fill gas and couldn’t get the darn door to open.
