2010 Nissan Sentra 4-DR.w/SAB

The contact owns a 2010 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start after multiple attempts with an unknown red warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact also stated while driving 30 MPH, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle failed to restart, and the contact had the vehicle towed to her residence. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 11V579000 (Electrical System) which she linked to the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that her vehicle was not under recall. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

AIRBAG LITGH IS ON. I STARTED THE CAR AND THEN SUDDENLY AIRBAG LIGHT WENT ON AND STAY LIKE IT SINCE.

ISSUE WITH THE OXYGEN SENSOR. THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE KNOCK SENSOR SENDING WRONG INFORMATION TO THE ECU CAUSING THE ENGINE TO ADJUST TIMING. I'VE GONE THROUGH 3 CATALYTIC CONVERTERS DUE TO THIS ISSUE. NISSAN SAYS THEY'RE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND KNOW OF NO FIX. GOING THROUGH FORUMS, IT APPEARS THE ONLY WAY TO STOP ENGINE FROM OVER COMPENSATING THE TIMING IS TO ISOLATE THE KNOCK SENSOR FROM THE ENGINE WITH A RUBBER O RING. I HAVE DONE THE REPAIR, BUT CAN ONLY USE PREMIUM FUEL OR RISK CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. IT ONLY APPEARS TO HAPPEN TO THE 2007 TO 2012 SE-R SPEC-V (MANUAL TRANSMISSION). I HAVE REPLACED ALL WIRING HARNESSES, ECU, SENSORS AND EVERYTHING ELSE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM. IT TENDS TO HAPPEN AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF TURNING CAR ON. GOES AWAY SOMETIMES AND REAPPEARS SUDDENLY. ENGINE BUCKS AND CONVERTER TURNS BRIGHT RED. HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2018 AND IS RECORDED ONLINE FORUMS AS FAR BACK AS 2008. ONE EXAMPLE: HTTPS://WWW.NISSANCLUB.COM/THREADS/2010-SENTRA-SER-SPEC-V-BOGGING.335872/

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH. ADDITIONALLY, THE HORN WAS INOPERABLE.

MY 2010 NISSAN SENTRA (WAS STATIONARY EACH TIME) FAILED TO START SO I REPLACED THE BATTERY AND IT BEGAN STARTING FOR A WEEK.THEN ONE MORNING IT FAILED TO START AGAIN. I CLEANED BOTH THE CABLE ENDS ON THE BATTERY AND EACH POST. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR STARTED AND LASTED A FEW DAYS AND THE SAME PROBLEMS ARISES AGAIN. THIS TIME THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER BUT WOULD NOT START. PUT A CODE MACHINE ON THE CAR AND RECEIVED A CODE FOR CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR OR THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I HAVE DISCOVERED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE THAT WOULD CAUSE THE CAR TO NOT GET GOOD CONNECTION AND CREATE FAILURE FOR THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. I ENTERED MY VIN NUMBER BUT THE NHTSA SYSTEM IS NOT RESPONDING. COULD PLEASE RESPOND TO SEE IF MY VEHICLE IS ON THE RECALL LIST?

I'VE BEEN GETTING CONTACTED ABOUT LEMON LAW CASES FOR MY CAR - MY SPECIFIC YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL BUT I CAN'T FIND OLD RECEIPTS THAT WOULD HELP ME WITH THE CASES. MY AIRBAG SIGN KEEPS GOING OFF AND THE ENGINE IS IN HORRIBLE SHAPE. I HAVE TO PUT IN A "THICKER" MOTOR FUEL TO KEEP IT FROM BURNING ALTHOUGH I DO MY OIL CHANGES REGULARLY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MORE THAN A YEAR NOW. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE IT STARTED HAPPENING SO I PUT 1/1/18 AS THE DATE BELOW.

WHILE DRIVING, MANY TIMES MY CAR LOSE POWER AND STALL OUT. RATE OF SPEED DOESN'T SEEM TO AFFECT WHETHER THE CAR STALLS. I HAVE TO THROW THE CAR IN PARK REAL FAST AND RE-CRANK IT AND IT TYPICALLY STARTS BACK UP. IF THE CAR WERE TO STALL OUT WHILE MAKING A TURN OR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THIS COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. IT IS UNKNOWN WHAT IS CAUSING THIS, BUT I DID SEE A RECALL ONLINE THAT STATED THE BATTERY TERMINAL MIGHT BE THE CAUSE OF THE LOSS OF ELECTRICAL OPERATION.

AFTER 4 DAYS OF NOT DRIVING MY CAR, MY CAR WILL NOT START. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DON'T DRIVE MY CAR, (THE FOUR DAYS). I HAVE TO JUMP START MY CAR. I HAVE BOUGHT NEW BATTERIES. I HAVE HAD MY ALTERNATOR CHECKED.

WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR MAY OCCASIONALLY LOSE POWER AND STALL OUT. RATE OF SPEED DOESN'T SEEM TO AFFECT WHETHER THE CAR STALLS. I HAVE TO THROW THE CAR IN PARK REAL FAST AND RE-CRANK IT AND IT TYPICALLY STARTS BACK UP. IF THE CAR WERE TO STALL OUT WHILE MAKING A TURN OR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THIS COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT.

I WAS DRIVING 30 MPH I HEARD A RATTLE AND A THUMP, EVERYTHING WENT DEAD ON THE VEHICLE.

THE FUSE FOR THE LOW BEAM 15 AMP THE DRIVER SIDE STARTED TO BLOW REPLACED ONE TIME, LIGHT WOULD WORK AFTER APPROX 2 DAYS BLEW UP AGAIN, REPLACED AND STARTED TO BURN A WIRE FROM THE WIRES UNDER THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD. I CANNOT PIN POINT WHERE THE WIRE IS BURNING AND NOW THE LIGHT IS VERY DIM AND HIGH BEAM IS NOT WORKING EITHER, BEFORE ONLY THE LOW BEAM WAS THE PROBLEM AND I'M AFRAID IT WILL CATCH FIRE. THE CAR DID NOT GET WET AS THE CAR WAS PARKED FOR ABOUT THREE WEEKS AFTER THE FIRST FUSE REPLACEMENT. THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING AS I WAS REPLACING THE FUSE.

ON MY 2010 NISSAN SENTRA S - PS WARNING LIGHT (POWER STEERING) COMES ON, AND I HAVE NO POWER STEERING (SO VERY HARD TO TURN THE CAR LEFT OR RIGHT). I RE-START THE CAR AND PS WARNING LIGHT DISAPPEARS, THOUGH SOMETIMES I HAVE TO START THE CAR A FEW TIMES BEFORE THE PS LIGHT GOES OFF !. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FREQUENTLY ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNINGS/EVENING AND IT IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. I CALLED UP NISSAN AND THEY MENTIONED THAT THERE IS A RECALL WITH NISSAN ALTIMA FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT NOT WITH NISSAN SENTRA. ON THE NET I SEE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH OTHER CARS HAVING ELECTRICAL PS SIMILAR TO NISSAN SENTRA (EG. NISSAN VERSA & ALTIMA) THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR PS ISSUE WITH NISSAN SENTRA AS WELL, SINCE THIS IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AND A SECURITY RISK.

IN THE COLDER WEATHER HAS A LIFTER NOISE ..AS IM LEARNING THE 2.0 NISSAN MOTOR HAS THAT PROBLEM ..I BROUGHT IT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND DONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AS THE CAR IS NOT WORTH IT. THE CAR HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT. I HEAR ALOT OF THE NISSAN SENTRAS DO THE SAME THING.WHY CANT THEY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT ? IT MAKES THE NOISE WHEN MOVING OR IDLE

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME AND RECOMMEND TO MANUFACTURERS ISSUE NEED TO BE FIXED I CALLED NISSAN DID NOT RESPONSE IT

THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND WHEN STANDING IN IDLE ON A CITY STREET.

CAR WILL STOP ACCELERATING NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL. WHEN THIS OCCURS CAR WON'T GO OVER 45-50 MPH. HAS HAPPENED ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, ON THE HIGHWAY, AND USUALLY 'CORRECTS' ITSELF WHEN I'M ABLE TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND IT TURN OFF ON ME WHILE 40 MILES AN HOUR

THE CAR STARTED MAKING A NOISE, TOOK IT TO AUTO ZONE & THEY SAID IT WAS THE BELT TIGHTENER. THE CAR WAS HAVING A HARD TIME DRIVING UP HILLS ON THE WAY HOME AFTER GETTING THE PART. IT ACTUALLY STALLED OUT AT A RED LIGHT, MAKING IT VERY HARD TO BREAK. AFTER GETTING IT HOME & REPLACING THE PART THE NOISE WAS STILL THERE. WE WERE GOING TO GO BACK TO AUTO ZONE TO SEE WHY & WHILE DRIVING ON THE WAY THERE A VALVE CAME SHOOTING THROUGH THE ENGINE. IT WAS QUITE ALARMING SOUNDED LIKE A SHOT GUN WENT OFF. WE PICKED UP THE BROKEN VALVE, PARTS OF IT LOOKED MELTED, & TOWED THE CAR HOME MAKING SURE NO CARS HIT US WE PUSHED THE CAR OFF THE RD. THANK GOD WE WERE NOT ON A HWY WITH MY 5 MONTH OLD & 11YR OLD.

DIFFERENT TIMES ON HIGHWAY AND ON STREET DRIVING MY CAR IS IN GEAR, WHEN YOU START TO USE THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR TURNS OFF ,YOU HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND PUT IT BACK IN PARK THEN RESTART, IT TURNS BACK ON. MY MECHANIC DOES NOT NO WHAT IS WRONG.

THE AC/HEATER STOPPED WORKING AFTER MAKING A LOUD NOISE WHEN IN USE. AFTER 4 DAYS OF HEARING THIS NOISE OFF AND ON, IT FINALLY WENT COMPLETELY OUT WITH FUMES. MY CD PLAYER ALSO STOPPED WORKING. I'VE HAD MY CAR 7 YRS., BOUGHT IT NEW, AND MAINTAINED UPKEEP. WHAT HAPPENED? NEED ANSWERS.

ALSO WHEN I AM ACCELERATING IN THE FREEWAY OR IN THE STREET THE CAR SLOWS DOWN AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH I ACCELERATE IT STAYS IN THE SAME SPEED. I TOOK IT IN TO PEPBOYS AUTO CENTER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT HAS AN INTERNAL NOISE AND THAT IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL STEERING. THEY ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE CAR CAN LOCK WHILE IM DRIVING OR TURNING AND IN TURN CAN CAUSE ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT , SO THAT I SHOULD TAKE IT TO THE NISSAN DEALER SINCE PEPBOYS DOES NOT FIX ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HOWEVER DO NOT HAVE MONEY TO TAKE IT INTO THE DEALER. WHILE DRIVING I WAS ALSO NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY ENOUGH WHEN GETTING INTO THE FREEWAY BECAUSE THE CAR SLOWS DOWN AND DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO GO ANY FASTER.

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE BATTERY IS LEAKING. ABOUT A YEAR AGO MY BATTERY WAS LEAKING BADLY AND I HAD TO REPLACE IT. ON FRIDAY MY HUSBAND WAS CHECKING THE OIL AND HE SAW THE BATTERY LEAK AGAIN. IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS CORRODED. HE CLEANED BUT IT IS STILL LEAKING.

BEFORE AFTER AND DURING AN OIL CHANGE VEG SHAKES. WHEN AC IS ON CAR SHAKES AND ENGINE SHAKES LIKE ITS ABOUT TO DIE.. IT'S NOT THE BATTERY IN . .UPDATED 07/21/15 *BF UPDATED 9/22/2015 *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED AND STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY WAS NOT KEEPING THE PROPER VOLTAGE AND NEEDED TO BE TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. THE BATTERY HAD TO BE CHARGED MORE THAN TWICE DUE TO THE FAILURE, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 10V555000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND 11V579000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 121,000.

WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY I CAN'T PICK UP SPEED. I CAN HAVE THE PEDDLE ALL THE WAY DOWN AND IT WILL NOT PICK UP SPEED. IT HAS SLOWED DOWN AND I HAVE HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE EXPRESSWAY. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT WAS MAY 3RD. I TOOK TO THE SHOP AND GOT A CODE P0744. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I WAS TOLD THAT I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION.

AS I WAS DRIVING I NOTICED A SHAKING NOISE COMING FROM BENEATH MY CAR. THE EXHAUST GASKET HAD RUSTED AND MY MUFFLER WAS HANGING FROM A BOLT. *TR

INACCURATE FUEL GAUGE. FILL THE TANK BUT ALWAYS SHOWS 2 POINT BELOW.10 MILES DECREASE THE 1 POINT OF GAUGE .VERY FRUSTRATING. I WANT THIS PROBLEM FIX BY NISSAN DEALER AT NO COST TO ME. I HEARD NISSAN SENTRA HAS THIS PROBLEM PLEASE HELP ME.I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.IT IS ABOUT MY FAMILY SAFETY. *TR

MECHANIC AND I FOUND A RECALL ON MY MAKE AND MODEL CAR. NISSAN DENIED THE RECALL THREE TIMES SAYING MY MODEL IS NOT AFFECTED. I DISAGREE AND THINK MY CAR SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AS IT SHOWS EXACT SYMPTOMS AS RECALL. ITS VERY POSSIBLE THAT MAYBE MY MAKE AND MODEL IS JUST STARTING TO BE AFFECTED. VEHICLE ENGINE STOPS RUNNING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, CAUSING AN UNSAFE CONDITION, AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. I LOSE BRAKES AND HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT TWICE WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR. *TR

I HAVE A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA AND THE ECM HAS GONE OUT DUE TO A FACTORY DEFECT. THERE WAS A RECALL ON CERTAIN 2010 NISSAN SENTRAS, HOWEVER MY PARTICULAR VIN# WAS NOT INCLUDED AND THEREFORE NISSAN WILL NOT MAKE THE REPAIRS. NOT LONG AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR, I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE BATTERY. IT WOULDN'T START AT TIMES. I PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY, HOWEVER STILL HAD THE SAME ISSUES. I TOOK THE CAR TO A FEW MECHANICS AND THEY COULDN'T DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. EVENTUALLY THE CAR JUST STOPPED. I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE, BUT IT WAS AROUND 12.7.14. THANKFULLY, I WASN'T DRIVING AT THE MOMENT, HOWEVER LOOKING AT OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES, THEIRS DID. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND THAT'S WHEN I WAS TOLD ABOUT THE ECM. AFTER DOING MY OWN RESEARCH, I SAW THE RECALL AND THE PEOPLE HAD THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING WITH MY CAR AND THEN THEIR ECM DIED. I DON'T FEEL LIKE I SHOULD BE STUCK WITH THIS CAR OR HAVE TO PAY FOR THOSE REPAIRS, HOWEVER NISSAN WILL NOT FIX IT BECAUSE AS MENTIONED, MY PARTICULAR VIN# WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THAT IS BULLCRAP AT IT'S FINEST. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO START AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE AIR MASS SENSOR. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE CONTACT WAS MADE AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V579000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 11/2 YRS AS A CERTIFIED NISSAN MULTIPLE PROBLEMS LIKE 2 TRANSMISSIONS AND A ENGINE STARTING 1 MONTH AFTER PURCHASE NOW AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AND DEALER SAYS IT IS A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG. NISSAN WILL NOT COVER THIS. WHAT OTHER MANUFACTURE ARE THEY USING FOR THE AIRBAGS. *TR

THE FIRST INCIDENT I WAS REVERSING OUT OF SPOT AND THE ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF, I HAD NO CONTROL OF GAS HOWEVER LIGHTS AND DASHBOARD ERRORS WERE DISPLAYED. I PUT CAR IN PARK, TURNED IGNITION OFF AND TRIED TO START UP CAR WITH SUCCESS . SO I THOUGHT MAYBE SOMETHING STRANGE HAPPENED AND I WENT ON WITH MY LIFE. OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS THIS KEPT HAPPENING MONTHS EVEN YEARS APART AT THE STRANGEST TIMES. FOR EXAMPLE THE MOST RECENT TIME IT HAPPENED I HAD STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN STARTING TO ACCELERATE THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF LIKE IT HAS SO MANY TIMES . BY NOW I STARTED THINKING MAYBE THIS IS MORE THAN A COINCIDENCE AND ACTUALLY SAW A RECALL ONLINE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. ONLY THIS TIME THE CAR WOULDN'T START BACK UP. I HAD IT TOWED TO NISSAN AND TOLD THEM MY SUSPICIONS ON THE RECALL AND I GET A CALL BACK A FEW DAYS LATER SAYING I NEED A NEW ENGINE AND THEY CAN'T CHECK THE ELECTRICAL RECALL BC THEY CAN'T START THE CAR . WHAT DO I DO NOW!? *TR

I PURCHASED A USED 2010 NISSAN SENTRA SL ON JULY 5, 2014 FROM A NISSAN DEALER. THE VERY NEXT DAY I DISCOVERED THAT WHEN I MOVED THE SUN VISOR DOWN TO BLOCK THE SUN RAYS WHILE DRIVING, EACH TIME I MOVED THE VISOR DOWN OR UP IT HIT THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. I NEEDED TO READJUST THE MIRROR BEFORE IT WAS USEFUL AGAIN. WHEN THE SUN IS JUST ABOVE THE HORIZON IT IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO SET THE VISOR TO BLOCK THE SUN RAYS FROM HITTING MY EYES WHILE DRIVING DUE TO THE POSITIONING OF THE MIRROR IN RELATION TO THE VISOR. THIS FEELS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC BECAUSE THE MIRROR NEEDS TO BE RESET EVERY TIME THE VISOR IS MOVED UP OR DOWN. THESE SEEMS A MAJOR FACTORY INSTALLATION GLITCH. I COMPLAINED TO THE NISSAN SERVICE MANAGER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR. HE SAID HE CHECKED OTHER 2010 NISSAN SENTRAS ON THEIR USED CAR LOT AND ALL OF THEM HAD THE SAME ISSUE. WHY HASN'T A FACTORY RECALL BEEN INITIATED FOR THIS ISSUE? THIS IS DANGEROUS ISSUE FOR SAFE DRIVING. *TR

IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS, FOOT/SHOE MAY CAUSE TRIM PANEL TO THE RIGHT OF GAS PEDAL TO BECAME DISLODGED, THUS INHIBITING ACCELERATION/DECELERATION AND CREATING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. FASTENERS FOR TRIM PANEL APPEAR TO FAIL AND/OR ARE LOOSE. *TR

THE EXHAUST PIPE ON MY NISSAN SENTRA 2010 STARTED RUSTING FOR THE FIRST YEAR. FOR THE 3RD YEAR THAT I OWN THE CAR THE EXHAUST PIPE RUSTED THROUGH THE PIPE AND ACTUALLY BROKE APART AND IS NOW HANGING DOWN. NOW THE EXHAUST IS COMING OUT WHERE THE RUST CAME EAT THROUGH THE METAL AND IS MAKING REALLY LOUD NOISES. *TR

I WENT TO SERVICE CENTER SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIX THESE. WHEN I AM DRIVING MY CAR SLOWLY UNDER 10 MPH, THERE IS NOISE FROM FRONT WHEELS EVERYDAY, IT IS LOUD. I CAN HEAR A CONTINUING SOUND WHEN I TURN MY CAR TO LEFT OR RIGHT ON ROAD. WHEN I AM DRIVING MY CAR ON LOCAL ROAD, THERE IS NOISE FROM GEAR-KNOB BUTTON(SHIFT-KNOB BUTTON). I FOUND MY CAR DOESN'T HAVE DOOR-LOCK WITH KEY. WHEN I LOCK THE FRONT DOOR, OTHER DOORS ARE NOT LOCK TOGETHER. BUT THE MANUAL DOESN'T SAY LIKE THAT. *TR

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT WANT TO COME OUT OF LOW GEAR. AT 35 MPH, I WAS AT ABOUT 6,000RPMS IN DRIVE. I CONFIRMED THE OVERDRIVE OFF BUTTON IS NOT ENGAGED, NOR IS IT IN "L", AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS OFF. WHEN IT HAS BEEN COOLED OFF FOR ABOUT 3+ HOURS, IT WILL DRIVE FAIRLY NORMAL FOR ABOUT 10-12 MINUTES UNTIL WARMED UP, THEN IT ALL STARTS AGAIN. EVEN ONCE IT IS COOLED OFF, THERE IS A SLIGHT DRAG ON POWER AND IT WILL BEGIN TO HAVE ERRATIC SHIFTING (SIMILAR TO A REGULAR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SLIPPING) AFTER A FEW MINUTES ON TAKE OFF IT FEELS LIKE THE PARKING BRAKE IS ON, BUT IT IS NOT. THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT COMES ON, THE VDC CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON, AND ANOTHER LIGHT THAT IS ABOVE THE VDC LIGHT COMES ON. CODES P0720 AND P1778 WERE FOUND BY A LOCAL NON-NISSAN DEALER WHO CHECKED THEM AS A COURTESY FOR ME. HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NISSAN HAS EXTENDED THE CVT TRANSMISSION WARRANTY ON CERTAIN NISSANS UP TO 10 YRS OR 120,000 MILES, MY SENTRA IS INCLUDED AMONG OTHERS. GET MORE INFO AT: HTTP://WWW.NISSANASSIST.COM/PROGRAMDETAILS.PHP. HOWEVER, MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER SAYS IF IT WILL COST ME 4 HOURS LABOR AT $125 HR TO TEAR DOWN FOR A FULL DIAGNOSIS. IF NOT COVERED, I HAVE TO PAY THAT. A CALL TO ANOTHER NISSAN SERVICE CENTER EXPLAINED THE SAME EXPENSE. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT THERE ARE MANY COMING THRU THAT ARE UNDER THE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM DUE TO A DEFECT THAT CAUSES ENGINE COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION. FOR THAT PROBLEM, NISSAN WILL REPLACE IT BUT THEY EXPECT THE CUSTOMER TO PAY $2,000 TOWARD THE BILL. THAT IS RIDICULOUS FOR A MANUFACTURER DEFECT IN DESIGN THAT THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT CAUSES THE FAILURE. I HAVE FOUND IN THE NISSAN FACTORY CVT MANUAL THAT THE PROBLEM IS INTERNAL AND MECHANICAL ACCORDING TO ITS OWN DIAGNOSTICS SEE THAT MANUAL HERE HTTP://ALLSENTRA.COM/FSM/2009_SENTRA/CVT.PDF .

DRIVING TO OKLAHOMA FROM EL PASO, TWO HOURS INTO THE TRIP WE ARE GOING UP THE MOUNTAINS AND THE CAR STOPS SHIFTING. WE WENT FROM 70MPH TO 40 MPH ALL THE WAY UP THE MOUNTAIN. THE CAR DID THIS FOR THE ENTIRE TRIP. WE CONTACTED CASA NISSAN ONCE WE RETURNED FROM OUR TRIP. MY CAR WAS DUE FOR ITS REGULARLY SCHEDULED TUN UP SO THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID HE WOULD CHECK OUT THE ISSUE DURING SERVICE. THE REPRESENTATIVE ASSURED ME THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO LOW TRANSMISSION FLUIDS AND THE FLUIDS WERE FILLED AND SERVICED. ON AUGUST 10,2012 WE WENT BACK TO OKLAHOMA AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED. WE ARE BACK IN THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THE SAME REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED ME THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. SEPTEMBER 2011 THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE IN THE CAR AND NOW ITS THE TRANSMISSION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A WOODED BACK ROAD WHEN AN ANIMAL RAN OUT IN FRONT OF THE CAR. I HIT THE BRAKES HARD ENOUGH TO ENGAGE THE ABS AND COME TO A FULL STOP. IMMEDIATELY AFTER STOPPING I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND STEPPED ON THE GAS. THE CAR ACTED LIKE THE BRAKES WERE STILL APPLIED. I SHIFTED BETWEEN DRIVE AND REVERSE MULTIPLE TIMES IN AN ATTEMPT TO FREE UP THE BRAKES. EVENTUALLY I JUST PRESSED HEAVILY ON THE GAS AND THE CAR BEGAN TO MOVE FORWARD SLOWLY AND GRADUALLY PICKED UP SPEED. AFTER SOME 15-30 SECONDS FOLLOWING PRESSING ON THE GAS, THE CAR RESUMED ACTING NORMALLY. THERE WAS A SECOND INCIDENT ON AN INTERSTATE FREEWAY WHEN THE TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY BRAKED HARD. THIS TIME I DID NOT STOP, BUT I FELT THE SAME SENSATION OF THE BRAKES STILL BEING APPLIED. THE NISSAN DEALER HAS REPRODUCED THIS PROBLEM ON MULTIPLE DIFFERENT SENTRAS OF DIFFERENT MODEL YEARS BUT OF THE SAME BASIC GENERATION. NISSAN HAS TOLD ME THAT THE CAR IS WORKING AS DESIGNED AND WILL NOT FIX IT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM THAT PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE OF LEAVING A CAR UNABLE TO MOVE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. *TR

I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A ONE-TIME,ONLY-THING, BUT FELT I WANTED TO MENTION IT. MY MOTHER DRIVES A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA, BUILT ABOUT 2/10 IT HAS NEVER BEEN SERVICED BY THE DEALER EXCEPT FOR 'INCLUDED' OIL AND FILTER CHANGES, AS PART OF THE NEW CAR 'SELL' I TOOK THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL OFF, TO ROTATE THE TIRES AND, SINCE I HAVE REPLACED CONTROL ARMS, AND CV AXLES MYSELF IN THE PAST, LOOKED AROUND. THE 32 MM SPINDLE NUT WAS LOOSE ENOUGH TO TURN BY HAND, THE ORIGINAL COTTER-PIN (PAINTED BLACK WHILE THE CAR WAS BUILT) WAS ORIGINAL-PROPERLY INTACT. I CONSULTED MY TECHNICAL MANUAL AND IT SAID THAT THIS 32 MM SPINDLE NUT IS USUALLY TORQUED TO 92 FOOT-POUNDS-NOT FINGER TIGHT. IN FAIRNESS AS I WRITE THIS-TO LEAVE NO STONE UNTURNED-AND TO THE MANUFACTURERS DEFENSE-THE CAR DID HIT A CURB ON THAT SIDE-AND THE TIRE BLEW-IT WAS REPLACED BY ETD TIRE SERVICE IN NJ. BUT THAT COTTER PIN IS ORIGINAL-NEVER REMOVED. SO A SOCKET COULD NOT HAVE BEEN PUT ON IT TO LOOSEN IT FROM THE ORIGINAL TORQUE SETTING. UNLESS THE SHOCK OF THE TIRE IMPACT JARRED IT LOOSE? KNOCKED THE WHEEL BEARING AND LOOSENED THE SPINDLE NUT? EITHER WAY-I AM GLAD I SPOTTED THIS. I WONDER IF THIS TORQUE SPECIFICATION IS ADEQUATE? 92 FOOT LBS. *TR

THROTTLE FAILS TO RETURN TO IDLE AFTER I TAKE FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL. REPORTED TO DEALER, WHO CHECKED IT OUT, BUT FOUND NOTHING. IF IT REPEATED, THEY SAID TO RETURN IT. IT DID REPEAT, SEVERAL TIMES. I PLAN TO CALL THEM AGAIN TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. IT SOUNDS VERY FAMILIAR TO THE RECENT FORD ESCAPE AND MAZDA TRIBUTE THROTTLE PROBLEMS. *TR

I HAVE NOW HAD 2 BLOWOUTS IN THIS CAR AND HAVE 20350 MILES ON THIS CAR AND THESE TIRES SAY THAT THEY ARE 70,000+ MILES AND THEY HAVE WAY LESS THAN THAT. THE FIRST BLOWOUT WAS AT ABOUT 11000 MILES WHICH IS TOTALLY NOT RIGHT AND I WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 50 AND THE SECOND BLOWOUT I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 70 AND AGAIN DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING AND ANOTHER TIRE BLEW. *TR

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY CAR STOPS, HAD IT IN SHOP 4 TIMES SAID NOTHING WRONG. HEARD ABOUT RECALL??? *TR

DEAR MADAM/SIR, THIS IS IN REGARDS TO MY 2010 SENTRA THAT EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN ACCELERATION ON 15TH OF JANUARY 2012. PICTURES OF THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION INCIDENT AND EXPLANATIONS CAN BE FOUND AT HTTP://WWW.NISSAN-INCIDENT.COM/. AS PER NISSAN'S-USA RECOMMENDATIONS I TOWED MY CAR FOR EXTENSIVE DIAGNOSTIC INVESTIGATIONS AT MARRAZI NISSAN, IN NAPLES FL ON FEBRUARY THE 21ST. NISSAN -USA DID NOT SEND ME A COPY OF THE DETAILED TECHNICAL DIAGNOSTIC REPORT THAT MY CAR WAS SUBJECTED TO FOR THE PAST 3 WEEKS. CLEARLY THE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED SINCE THE 5 FEET SKID MARK ON THE SIDEWALK IS VISIBLE 'CHECK THE PICTURES POSTED. THE SHOE WAS NARROWER THAN THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE ACCELERATION PEDAL, SO THIS DOES NOT EXPLAIN THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT IN 2005 NISSAN INTRODUCED THE OVERRIDE ACCELERATOR INPUT, MEANING DEPRESSING THE BRAKE WILL CUT OFF THE ACCELERATION. CONCLUSION: IT WAS A MALFUNCTION AND CLEARLY A SUDDEN ACCELERATION INCIDENT. NISSAN USA WILL NOT STATE WHETHER ACCORDING TO THEIR INVESTIGATION THE VEHICLE IS SAFE FOR DRIVING AND DOES NOT POSE A ROAD HAZARD. THE CAR IS STILL UNDER FULL WARRANTY, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE IT FOR NEARLY A MONTH. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR SINCE IN MY OPINION IT POSES A SAFETY HAZARD. THE CAR IS STILL AT JOHN MARAZZI NISSAN WHO NEVER EVEN CALLED ME, NOT EVEN AFTER I LEFT THEM A MESSAGE AND SENT THEM A FAX. I'D LIKE TO KNOW AFTER THE NISSAN-USA EXPERT INVESTIGATION IF MY CAR DOES NOT POSE A ROAD AND SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE AND FELT A "POP" AS THE WHEEL TURNED. I TURNED THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH AND NOTICED THERE WAS NO RESISTANCE WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT. I TURNED CAR OFF WITH THE WHEEL STILL TURNED TO THE LEFT AND LOOKED AT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL AND NOTICED THE WHEEL WAS POINTED TO THE RIGHT. I LOOKED AT THE RIGHT WHEEL AND IT WAS POINTED TO THE LEFT. I LOOKED AT THE LEFT WHEEL AND SAW THAT THE TIE ROD HAD SNAPPED IN HALF. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT AND THERE WERE NO CEMENT PARKING BARRIERS PRESENT. *TR

MY CAR NISSAN SENTRA 2010 BROKE DOWN ON PARKING LOT AT MY WORKPLACE (LACK OF ELECTRICITY) ON NOV 30, 2010. AT THAT TIME I WAS NOT AWARE ABOUT A RECALL FOR POSITIVE CABLE TO CAR'S BATTERY. WITH MY COLLEAGUES AT WORK WE TRIED TO USE JUMPING CABLES TO START THE ENGINE. AFTER UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS CAR WAS TOWED TO KENDRICK'S NISSAN IN LAFAYETTE INDIANA. THE NEXT DAY DEALER'S TECHNICAL ADVISER TOLD ME THAT ECM IS BROKEN AND IT LOOKS THAT I BURNED IT DURING RE-START ENGINE ATTEMPT USING WRONGLY (REVERSING) CABLES. HE ADDED THAT I BROKE A WARRANTY AND I HAVE TO PAY $871 FOR REPAIR. I BELIEVE THAT DIAGNOSIS IS NOT CORRECT AND THAT THE REASON FOR CAR STARTING PROBLEM WAS FAULTY CONNECTION CABLE WHICH COULD ALSO CAUSE SOME OTHER DAMAGES DURING A RE-START ATTEMPT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 65 MPH WHEN SHE WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH IN WHICH THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE AIR BAGS WOULD ONLY DEPLOY DEPENDING ON THE WEIGHT OF THE PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT AN INVESTIGATION WOULD BE PERFORMED TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING A DECISION IF HER INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD DEEM THE VEHICLE AS DESTROYED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3,000. UPDATED 11/28/11 *CN

CAR WOULD NOT START. I CALLED DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE RIGHT BATTERY CABLE CONNECTION AND TO JUST TIGHTEN IT. I HAD MY HUSBAND TIGHTEN IT AND IT DID START. THIS HAPPENED TWO ADDITIONAL TIMES AFTER THIS. THANKFULLY MY HUSBAND WAS WITH ME AND HE WAS ABLE TO JGGLE THE CABLE AND WE DID GET THE CAR STARTED. RECENTLY I WAS OUT ALONE SHOPPING LATE AT NIGHT COMING FROM THE MALL AND THE CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT START. HAD MY BROTHER IN LAW COME TO MY RESCUE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER SHIP TODAY TODAY AND I WAS ASSURED THAT THIS PROBLEM WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. I DROVE HOME AND THEN HAD TO GO BACK OUT FOR SOMETHING WE NEEDED FOR DINNER AND THE CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT START. I HAD JUST LEFT THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE STATION. DID SOME FURTHER RESEARCH ON LINE AND FOUND OUT THAT THE RECALL PARTS WONT BE DISTRIBUTED UNTIL 11/29. SO WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO IN THE MEANTIME. ALSO THIS ISSUE CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO STOP SUDDENLY AT LOW SPEEDS AND CAUSE ACCIDENTS NOT TO MENTION DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. WHY WAS I TOLD THAT THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED WHEN I FOUND OUT THE RECALL PARTS WERE NOT EVEN AVAILABLE AT THAT TIME TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE??? I DONT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AND FEEL NISSAN SHOULD REPLACE THE VEHICLE FOR ME. I PURCHASED A NEW CAR SO THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT GETTING TO MY JOB ETC. I HAD A SEVERAL USED CARS THAT I PUT ALOT OF MONEY INTO AND DECIDED TO GO NEW TO GIVE ME SOME PIECE OF MIND.

AFTER DRIVING APPROX. 50 MILES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS 65-70 MPH AND EXITING TO A FULL STOP, ENGINE WOULD REV UP AS USUAL BUT ONLY MOVE 1 MPH. TRANSMISSION NOT FULLY ENGAGED. THIS PUTS ONE IN HARMS WAY WITH NO ABILITY TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. OCCURRED IN ALL GEARS. ONLY WAY TO GET BACK TO NORMAL WAS TO SHUT OFF ENGINE AND RESTART. THIS OCCURRED THREE TIMES IN A ROW ON SAME DAY (10/13/2010). DOES NOT HAPPEN IN NORMAL SUBURBAN DRIVING OR SINCE THAT DAY BECAUSE CAR NOT TAKEN ON HIGHWAY SINCE (OR BEFORE 10/13/2010). DEALER (LEITH NISSAN APEX NC) WAS UNABLE TO REPRODUCE OR REPAIR BECAUSE TECH ONLY DROVE CAR FOR 4 MILES ON 50 MILE PER HOUR SUBURBAN ROAD WITH SEVERAL STOPLIGHTS. *TR

THE BACK END CAN SLIDE AROUND A CORNER EASILY, ALSO WILL ALSO COME OFF THE GROUND GOING OVER BUMPS OR RAILROAD TRACKS. THIS HAS OCCURRED EVEN WHILE TRAVELING BELOW SPEED LIMIT, ON A CLEAN DRY ROAD. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY BETWEEN 10-15 MPH WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN IN ANY DIRECTION.

ON JULY 20, 2010, I WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WHEN I WAS REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE FORCE OF THE CRASH WAS SUCH THAT THE REAR OF THE CAR I WAS DRIVING SUSTAINED SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS IN DAMAGE. THE FORCE ALSO, PROPELLED ME INTO THE CAR STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME. THIS OTHER CAR SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THEIR BUMPER TO DISLODGE IT FROM ITS SUPPORTS AND THROW THEIR REAR WINDOW OFF TRACK. THERE IS NO PLACE IN THE REPAIR BILL THAT STATED THAT THE AIRBAG WAS RESET BECAUSE IT FAILED TO DEPLOY. GIVEN THE FACT THAT THE REAR CRUMPLE ZONE WAS DESTROYED, AND THE REAR QUARTER PANELS WERE REPLACED, THIS CAR IS RENTED BY BUDGET UNDER THE GUISE OF IT BEING SAFE. THE PAPERWORK I RECEIVED FROM BUDGET ALSO STATES THAT THE FEATURES OF THIS NISSAN SENTRA (2010) IS FRONT, REAR AND SIDE AIRBAGS. SINCE ALL OF THE REAR OF THE CAR WAS DESTROYED IT CAN BE SAFELY ASSUMED THAT THE AIRBAG SENSOR SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRIGGERED. IF BOTH FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR DEFINITELY FROM THE FORCE OF MY CAR BEING PROPELLED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. BUDGET RENTED THIS CAR AS BEING A "SAFE" CAR WITH THIS NISSAN SAFETY EQUIPMENT WHEN IT CLEARLY IS NOT. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2010 NISSAN SENTRA S ON FRIDAY JULY, 2. IT HAD 47 MILES ON IT, 10 OF WHICH I PUT ON DURING A TEST DRIVE.

AFTER WAITING AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 4 HOURS, I WAS SENT HOME WITH A RENTAL CAR. AFTER A FEW DAYS, THE DEALERSHIP ALERTED ME THAT THE MY ELECTRONIC COMPUTER UNIT FAILED. THEY REPLACED THE SYSTEM AND I GOT MY CAR BACK ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 14. AFTER HAVING THE NEW CAR IN MY POSSESSION FOR LESS THAN A WEEK, IT SUDDENLY STOPPED AGAIN, AND WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS CAUSING THE ELECTRONIC COMPUTER UNIT TO FAIL. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN A MONTH THAT THE ELECTRONIC COMPUTER UNIT IN MY 2010 NISSAN SENTRA. *TR
