Summary

FUEL PUMP FAILURE AT 75K MILES. RESULTED IN VEHICLE SPUTTERING, THEN STALLING, DASHBOARD LIGHTS GOING OUT AND THEN TURNING BACK ON WITH MORE THAN HALF A TANK DIFFERENCE IN THE FUEL READING, AND THEN RAN OUT OF GAS ENTIRELY. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP WHO DENIED THERE BEING AN OPEN RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE EVER, WHICH IS INCORRECT AS I'VE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FROM A RECALL. THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY UNSTABLE AND IS NOW ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS HOLDING BRAKE FLUID. CAN'T FILL TANK AT THE GAS STATION EITHER BECAUSE REFUELING STOPS IMMEDIATELY EVERY TWO SECONDS AFTER TURNING ON EVEN IF YOU PHYSICALLY HOLD IT THERE... YOU CONTINUE TO HAVE TO CLICK IT BACK ON BECAUSE THE FUEL IS NOT ACCEPTED BY THE VEHICLE. THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED ENTIRELY. IT IS UNSAFE AND HAS STRANDED ME 3 TIMES AND REPAIRS HAVE BEEN UNREASONABLE. NISSAN MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND ISSUE RECALLS THAT WILL FIX THE ISSUES FREE OF CHARGE. AS OF TODAY I'VE BEEN ASKED TO INVEST ANOTHER $3,000.00 TO FIX IT, BUT IT'S WORTH LESS THAN THAT NOW.

EVER SINCE I FIRST BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW WITH 23 MILES ON IT I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH WHAT ALMOST SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION, BUT I THINK IT'S A SENSOR THAT TELL THE CAR TO SHIFT OR GIVE GAS. MY ENGINE HAS CAME ON A FEW TIMES THEN GONE OFF IT HAD TO DO WITH A SENSORY THAT WAS CAUSING TO MUCH AIR TO LEAK INTO THE GAS LINE , REASON FOR THE STUDDERING WHEN YOU ACCELERATE AT STOP SIGNS . THE CAR OUT OF NO WHERE JUST STOP GIVING GAS AND TAKES A LONG TIME TO SHIFT WHEN I FIRST MENTION THE PROBLEMS TO THE CAR COMPANY THEY SAID THE ENGINE SHIFTS ON ITS OWN SO IT CAN FEEL A LITTLE GREEKY ?? WHAT KINDA ANSWER IS THAT . NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAD ANOTHER ISSUE WITH MOSTUIRE GETTING INTO MY HEADLIGHTS AND CAUSING THE LIGHTING SYSTEMS TO MALFUNCTION. I DON'T SEE THIS CAR LASTING ME ANOTHER 2 YEARS THE WAY THE CAR RUNS . AND I DO IN TOWN DRIVING .

NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS DURABILITY IS UNDER A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT, AND THEIR RESPONSE TO EXTENDED WARRANTIES TO COVER THE ISSUES IS INSUFFICIENT AND IN DISREGARD OF THE CURRENT PANDEMIC. NISSAN DOES NOT EXPLAIN WHY 7 YEARS OR 84000 MILES WERE CHOSEN AS THE CUTLINE TO PROVIDE COVERAGE. IF 7 YEARS IS THE DECIDED COVERAGE, WHICH IS UNSATISFACTORY FOR TRANSMISSIONS, THE CORRESPONDING MILEAGE SHOULD BE 94500, NOT 84000 BASED ON "THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION'S FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION STATES THE AVERAGE PERSON DRIVES AROUND 13,500 MILES EVERY YEAR.". NISSAN MUST EXPLAIN THIS COVERAGE LIMITS DECISION AND EXTEND THE WARRANTY PERIOD AMID THE PANDEMIC TO AVOID NEGLIGENCE.

THE OTHER ISSUE IS YESTERDAY I WENT TO GET DINNER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON.

I AM OWNER OF A 2014 NISSAN CENTRA. I STARTED GETTING PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKES. I NOTOCED THAT WHEN I PRESS ON THE BRAKES, THE PETALS GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. MY CAR ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES. I TOOK IT FOR AN INSPECTION TO MY PERSONAL MECHANIC AND THEY REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER TWICE AND I STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. DOES ANYBODY KNOW IF THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS KIND OF PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS ANYTIME, EITHER WITH THE CAR ON, IN MOTION OR NOT IN MOTION.

FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, I'VE NOTICED A JERKINESS WITH MY VEHICLE. WHEN I ACCELERATE, IT FEELS AS IF THE CAR IS PULLING BACK TOWARD ME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST MORE THAN $4,000 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. I'VE NOTICED MANY OWNERS WITH SIMILAR CONCERNS ON THIS WEBSITE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL IMMEDIATELY. OWNER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR DEFECTS WITH THESE CARS WHEN THE DEALERS/MANUFACTURERS ARE RESPONSIBLE.

PURCHASED CERTIFIED PRE OWNED NISSAN SENTRA 2014 FROM PINEBELT DEALERSHIP WITH 67K MILES ON IT JAN 8TH 2018. NISSAN WAS WELL AWARE OF THE TRANS ISSUES HOWEVER I WAS NOT. AND THE SALESMAN WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO TELL ME THE TRANS LASTS THE LIFE OF THE CAR. I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. CAR JUST HIT 104K MILES. WHILE TAKING IT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE THE RECEPTIONIST TOLD ME THE MECHANIC HEARD A NOISE AND WANTED ME TO CONSENT TO A $160 DIAGNOSTIC. I SAID I DON'T HEAR A NOISE THERE AREN'T ANY LIGHTS ON. SURE ENOUGH THEY TOLD ME THE TRANS IS BAD AND WILL COST ME 4500 TO REPLACE. I OWE $7900 ON THE CAR CURRENTLY. NO ONE WOULD FINANCE A CAR AND EXPECT THE TRANS 2 GO IN 2 YEARS. THE CAR STARTED ACTING UP LESS THAN 5 DAYS AFTER VISITING THE DEALERSHIP. IT WONT GO OVER 50 MPH ITS SHAKING BADLY. ITS MAKING WHINING NOISES AND STARTS JERKING. I DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY EVERY DAY. IM GOING TO GET SLAMMED. THE CAR IS A DEATH TRAP. I BROUGHT IT TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC FOR A 2ND OPINION. HE CONFIRMED THE TRANS IS SLIPPING AND HE HAD A CAR LOT WITH HALF A DOZEN 2014 SENTRAS WAITING ON A NEW TRANS. I REACHED OUT TO NISSAN AND ASKED FOR HELP. HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING. THESE CARS ARE SO UNSAFE ITS TERRIFYING DRIVING THEM. *TR

MY 2014 NISSAN SENTRA KEEPS JUMPING, JERKING AND STUTTERING WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS 103,000 MILES ON IT. WHEN I PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL, SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL NOT RESPOND AT FIRST OR BARELY START MOVING AND THEN WITHOUT WARNING WILL JUMP/KICK THE CAR FORWARD. THIS MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY DURING CITY AND TRAFFIC JAM CONDITIONS. AFTER LOOKING UP THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THE 2014 NISSAN SENTRA AND IS THE CAUSE OF MANY ACCIDENTS. I AM PRETTY SURE THE ISSUE IS BEING CAUSED BY THE TRANSMISSION.

Summary

CODE: R1608 THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) IS DESIGNED TO CLASSIFY THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AND, UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THE OCS SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO ONLY DEPLOY THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT. IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE OCS SOFTWARE MAY INCORRECTLY CLASSIFY THE PASSENGER SEAT AS EMPTY WHEN IT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT. IF THE OCS DOES NOT DETECT AN ADULT OCCUPANT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WOULD BE DEACTIVATED. ADDITIONALLY, IF A CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (CRS) IS INSTALLED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT (NISSAN INSTRUCTIONS ADVISES AGAINST THIS), IN CERTAIN RARE INSTANCES, THE SEAT BELT BRACKET COULD DEFORM AND THE AIR BAG MAY NOT DEACTIVATE AS DESIGNED. THIS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF AN INJURY TO A CHILD SITTING IN A CRS INSTALLED IN THE FRONT SEAT.

I WAS AT A TOTAL STOP (STATIONARY) AND MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME CAUSING DAMAGE TO BOTH CARS. MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS IT LUNGES, JERKS AND RPM GO UP WHEN IDLING. I AM HEARING GRINDING NOISES AND MY CAR JERKS AND DRAGS WHEN DRIVING. I HAD IT IN THE SHOP ABOUT A YEAR AGO FOR CLICKING NOISES AND GEAR HARD SHIFTING, THEY COVERED UP THE PROBLEM AND I PAID THE DEALER $116 TO LUBE MY GEAR SHIFT AND STRUTS.I STILL OWE $4000 ON THIS CAR. THE NISSAN DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME $150 FOR A TRANSMISSION INSPECTION. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE I GET INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT DUE TO A FAULTY TRANSMISSION.

LIKE EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD, THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON THESE CARS ARE EXTREMELY HORRIBLE AND POTENTIALLY VERY UNSAFE. THE RPM'S WILL START TO DECREASE AND INCREASE WITH NO WARNING, EVENTUALLY LEAVING THE CAR TO A SLOW CRAWL. VERY UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE A YOUNG DRIVER ON A BUSY FREEWAY ON HIS WAY BACK TO COLLEGE. THERE IS CURRENTLY A 'PENDING" RECALL AND LAWSUIT ON THESE TRANSMISSIONS AND IS LONG OVERDUE. IT'S NO WONDER, CAR MANUFACTURERS LIKE HONDA AND TOYOTA COME HIGHER RATED, THESE CARS ARE NOT JUST UNRELIABLE, BUT VERY UNSAFE BASED ON THEM HAVING PAST KNOWN MALFUNCTIONS WHICH SEEM TO KEEP RECURRING EVERY YEAR. FILING A COMPLAINT ISN'T GOING TO FIX ANYTHING EITHER, HOPEFULLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WILL FORCE NISSAN'S HAND TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEY ARE AND HAVE BEEN AWARE OF FOR YEARS.

I WAS SITTING IN TRAFFIC AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED GREEN I PRESSED THE GAS PETAL TO DRIVE AND MY CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN ON ITS OWN AND IT JUST CUT OFF AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR TO MAKE IT HOME. ALSO WHILE DRIVING I COULD FEEL THE CAR SHAKING OR VIBRATING, EVEN WHEN I SLOWED DOWN OR CAME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT IT WAS SHAKING/VIBRATING, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS IS. I DID HAVE MY CAR SERVICED LAST MONTH AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AND WASN'T SURE WHY THE LIGHT WAS ON. IT HAS BEEN A MONTH AND MY ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I WORRY WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER IF MY CAR IS GOING TO CUT OFF AGAIN WHILE I'M DRIVING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, I ALSO WORRY EVERY TIME I FEEL IT SHAKE/VIBRATE THINKING ITS GOING TO CUT OFF. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND WORRISOME. I HOPE THIS ISSUE CAN BE RESOLVED- NOT A HAPPY NISSAN OWNER RIGHT NOW.

NISSAN CLAIMS THE TRANSMISSION IAN OUT OF WARRANTY. WHEN MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT I WAS GOING 65MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND MY CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED. THERE IS SO MUCH JERKING AND TUGGING. IT IS A SAFETY RISK AND NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT ON THE CVT IN THESE CARS.

Summary

2014 NISSAN SENTRA BROKE DOWN WHILE IN MOTION. (PARKING IT IN A SPOT IN A MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING LOT. ) WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT GEARS, TO REVERSE AND STRAIGHTEN OUT, IT SIMPLY TURNED OFF. I RESTARTED AND IT RAN NORMALLY IN "PARK" AND "NEUTRAL," BUT STALLED EVERY TIME I PUT IT INTO ANY GEAR. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO A LOCAL SHOP WHERE I WAS INFORMED IT WOULD NEED A NEW CVT, AND THEN TOWED TO THE DEALER. I BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND IT IS ONLY THROUGH LUCK THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN ON THE ROAD AT SPEED. SUBSEQUENT RESEARCH ONLINE INDICTS THESE ISSUE ARE COMMON TO THE SENTRA AND OTHER MODELS FROM THE SAME COMPANY, THAT IT HAS TSB'S AND ALSO MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE. THE CAR HAS ALSO BEEN TO THE DEALER RECENTLY, WHO REPLACED THE VALVE BODY AND THE CVT FLUID, BUT THE CVT FAILED AGAIN WITHIN 90 DAYS. NOW, THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACING AND IT'S BEING DONE SO, IN MY OPINION' WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE BY NISSAN THAT IT IS LIKELY TO FAIL AGAIN. THE CAR ALSO HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES IN THE PAST WITH THE O/D OFF LIGHT ENGAGING WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITHOUT MY KNOWINGLY TOUCHING THE BUTTON ON THE SHIFT COLUMN. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH A TRANSMISSION THAT SHUTS DOWN A CAR WHILE IT IS BEING DRIVEN, OR THAT SHIFTS OUT OF OVERDRIVE WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEED, WITHOUT THE DRIVER MAKING A CONCIOUS CHOICE TO DO SO.

MY COMPLAINT SEEMS TO BE THE SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE WITH THIS VEHICLE....A FAULTY TRANSMISSION! I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW NISSAN ISN'T REPLACING THEIR FAULTY EQUIPMENT! OF COURSE AS WE ARE JUST OUT OF THE WARRANTY, IT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM! MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND HAD TO GET OFF SINCE THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE OVER 40MPH. THE RMP GAUGE WOULD GO BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T! IT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING TO KNOW THAT NISSAN ISN'T BEING HELD MORE ACCOUNTABLE FOR SUCH A MASSIVE ERROR IN THEIR MANUFACTURING.

OUR CVT TRANSMISSION JUST LET GO ON A 2014 SENTRA SR WITH 89,000. IT WAS SLIPPING, BUCKING AND STALLING THE CAR. TOWED IT TO THE DEALER SAID THE COST WOULD BE $2200 TO REPLACE THE VALVE BODY AND A EXHAUST TIMING SOLENOID. IF THAT DIDN'T FIX IT, (I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $2200) IT WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION WHICH WOULD COST ABOUT $4300. I CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE BUT THEY WERE OF NO HELP. THEY SAID IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THEY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER TO PAY 50%. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. THIS IS OUR 5TH NISSAN. NEVER WILL I BUY A NISSAN VEHICLE.

Summary

SENSOR/WARNING/CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS APPEAR TO NOT WORK. I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY VEHICLE STARTED TO SHIFT ERRATICALLY, THE CAR WOULD THEN BARELY MOVE WHEN PRESSING GAS. AFTER TRYING TO ACCELERATE MORE, THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE AT ALL. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS SUCH AS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AT ALL WHICH MADE ME BELIEVE THERE WAS NOTHING SERIOUS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. WHEN IT WAS INSPECTED BY NISSAN TECHNICIANS, THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION WAS COMPLETELY BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE IF THE TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY AND THE FACT THAT THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT SOMETHING WRONG CAUSE ME SERIOUS POTENTIAL DANGER AS I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY, UNABLE TO MOVE. BECAUSE THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION, THIS MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX THE ISSUE EARLY ON SO THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.

Summary

HAD MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY OCT.13,2018 FOR A 2HR TRIP...1HR INTO TRIP AND MY CAR KNOCKED OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL AND BEGAN JERKING WITH RPMS JUMPING UP AND DOWN. ON RETURN TRIP IT DID THE SAME THING, BUT NO WARNING LIGHTS EVER APPEARED ON DASH. WHEN CHECKED, NO RED FLAGS AND AFTER A DAY OR 2 AROUND TOWN RPMS DID NOT JUMP. NOV.22,2018(JUST A LITTLE OVER 1 MONTH) I PUT MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY FOR THE SAME TRIP AND WITHIN AN HOUR THE CAR KNOCKED OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL, BEGAN JERKING AND RPMS WERE JUMPING UP AND DOWN. ON THE RETURN TRIP BACK, 1HR AND A HALF INTO TRIP, MY CAR LOST ALL ACELERATION POWER..PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT CONTINUED TO DROP SPEED FROM 70MPH TO 45 BEFORE I TURNED ON HAZARDS AND STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER. THEN FINALLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT POPS ON! BUT MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE NOW STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE BUSY HIGHWAY. MY CAR HIT 75K MILES DURING THIS 2ND TRIP, SO FIRST TIME WAS UNDER 75K. AFTER SPENDING OVER AN HOUR HELPLESS, THE CAR JUMPED BACK INTO GEAR AND ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE IT THE REMAINING 20 MILES, BUT ONCE EXITING THE HIGHWAY I COULD NOT ACELERATE TO MERGE INTO STREET TRAFFIC AND WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THERE HAS BEEN NO MENTION OF ANY CVT ISSUES WHEN I TAKE IT IN FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE. NOW IT'S IN NEED OF REPAIR BADLY! NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO TAKE IT IN TO THE NISSAN DEALER ASAP. I'VE BEEN LOYAL TO NISSAN FOR MANY YEARS HAVING HAD A 1995 AND 2002 SENTRA FOR YEARS...I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THIS 2014 FOR 2 YET, AND IF BEING STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WITH A YOUNG CHILD OR ALMOST BEING REAR-ENDED DUE TO LOSS OF POWER TO ENGINE DOESN'T SCREAM 'WE NEED A SAFETY RECALL' WHAT WILL??

Summary

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD COUNTLESS SPORADIC ACCELERATION ISSUES AND FEEL AS THOUGH IT WOULD STALL/LOOSE POWER BUT IT HAS ACTUALLY COMPLETELY STALLED ON ME ON 3 OCCASIONS. 1ST TIME: I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ABOUT 10 MPH LOOKING FOR A PARKING SPOT AND AS I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD SHUDDER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THEN THE ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPPED AS I WAS TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE PARKING LOT. I HAD TO RESTART THE ENGINE. I TOOK THE CARE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 3,300 MILES ON IT. I WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIND/RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND THE CAR DID NOT HAVE A RECALL. NOTHING WAS DONE. 2ND TIME: I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN A REGULAR STREET AT ABOUT 30 MPH AND AS I TRIED ACCELERATING, THE CAR STARTED SHUDDERING AND AGAIN, WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ANY MORE. I HAD TO COAST/PULL THE CAR OVER INTO A NEARBY NEIGHBORHOOD. 3RD TIME: I WAS ON THE FREEWAY GOING ABOUT 50 MPH WHEN THE CAR WOULD JERK AS I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, THE RPM GAGE JUMPED AROUND, AND THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER SO I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY. THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE ENOUGH TO ENTER THE FREEWAY AT A SAFE SPEED, BUT WOULD ONLY GET TO A SAFE SPEED AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FORWARD IN THE EMERGENCY LANE FOR A FEW MINUTES. THEN, AFTER I WAS ABLE TO ENTER THE FREEWAY, THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER AGAIN AND I WOULD HAVE TO COAST OFF TO THE EDGE OF THE FREEWAY AWAY FROM SPEEDING VEHICLES. IT WAS NIGHT TIME AND VISIBILITY WAS LOW BECAUSE IT WAS A UNLIT HIGHWAY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT BETWEEN NEVADA AND ARIZONA. I WAS LUCKY NOT HAVE BEEN HIT BY A CAR. I TOWED THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEED REPLACING. IT COST $4,607.83 (WITH CAR RENTAL) TO REPLACE. THE CAR HAD ABOUT 77,000 MILES AT THE TIME. I DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE ANYMORE, EVEN AFTER THE REPLACED TRANSMISSION. *DT ..*BF *JB

Summary

PURCHASED MY 2014 SENTRA BRAND NEW(124 MILES) IN NOVEMBER 2014. I KEEP UP WITH REG SCHEDULED MAINT BECAUSE I USE MY CAR FOR WORK, I'M IN SALES. MID-JUNE I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A JOLTING FROM MY CAR WHEN I STARTED TO ACCELERATE. ONCE I REACHED 40MPH THE JOLTING AND TUGGING FEELING WOULD SOMEWHAT STOP, THAT IS UNTIL I HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND THEN ACCELERATE AGAIN. I HAD MY SPARK PLUGS CHANGED, THROTTLE BODY CLEANED, ENGINE FILTER REPLACED, AND IT STILL JOLTED AND TUGGED. PRETTY MUCH EVERY YEAR BUT 2014 IS INCLUDED IN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM FROM THE CRAPPY CVT. TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A TRANSMISSION GARAGE AND THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. SAID CVT WAS BAD, LIKE ALL NISSAN TRANSMISSIONS, AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REBUILT. THE PRICE THEY WERE GOING TO CHARGE WAS A LITTLE STEEP BUT IT ALSO CAME WITH A 3 YEAR WARRANTY, ANYTHING HAPPENS TO THE TRANSMISSION IN 3 YEARS AND THEY FIX FOR FREE. I WAS TALKED INTO GOING TO NISSAN TO GET A NISSAN CERTIFIED DIAGNOSTIC AND PAY $105 FOR SOMETHING I ALREADY KNEW. THEY CALLED ME 2 DAYS AFTER MY APPOINTMENT TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS INDEED THE CVT , SURPRISE SURPRISE. I MADE A CLAIM WITH NISSAN TO SEE IF I COULD GET ANY OUT OF REGULAR WARRANTY ASSISTANCE FOR MY 4 YEAR OLD CAR THAT I STILL OWE A LOT OF MONEY ON. AFTER A WEEK OF WAITING AND $200+ DOLLARS IN RENTAL CAR FEES THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR WAITING, NISSAN GETS BACK TO ME SAYING THEY CAN OFFER A LITTLE BIT OF ASSISTANCE. I GUESS A LITTLE BIT IS BETTER THAN NOTHING BUT NOW I AM FORCE TO WAIT 2+ WEEKS BC THE DEALERSHIP ONLY HAS 1 NISSAN CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN TO WORK ON 15 PLUS VEHICLES A DAY. THERE A 2 TRANSMISSION JOBS AHEAD OF MINE THAT HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A WHILE AND THEY DID 6 CVT REBUILDS LAST MONTH. NISSAN OR THEIR DEALERSHIPS DO NOT SUPPORT THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH LOANERS AND THEY ARE ONLY OFFERING A 1 YEAR/12K WARRANTY ON THEIR WORK. NISSAN IS SCREWING ALL OF US WITH THIS CVT ISSUE!

Summary

THIS 2014 NISSAN SENTRA HAS BEEN IN MY POSSESSION SINCE SEPTEMBER 12, 2015. THE ISSUE STARTED UP ON SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2018. I NOTICED THE CAR HESITATING AND "JERKING" WHENEVER I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE ABOVE 40 MPH TO REACH HIGHWAY SPEED. THE PROBLEM INCREASED DRAMATICALLY OVER THE WEEK, AND DURING MY COMMUTE ON FRIDAY, JULY 6, 2018, MY CAR WAS RESISTING ACCELERATING, RPM WOULD JUMP UP AND DOWN WHILE ATTEMPTING TO GET TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND ACCELERATION SEEMED TO BE THE MOST DIFFICULT THING TO ACCOMPLISH. ON MY WAY BACK HOME FROM WORK ON FRIDAY JULY 6, 2018 IS WHEN THE PROBLEM BECAME BLATANTLY DANGEROUS. I ENDED UP EXPERIENCING A SUDDEN "DROP" IN SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WENT FROM 65 MPH TO 30 MPH AND REFUSED TO GO ANY FASTER. THE RPM DID JUMP DRAMATICALLY AT ONE POINT, FROM BARELY OVER 1 RPM LEAPING UP TO 7 RMP, THOUGH THE CAR'S SPEED DID NOT INCREASE. THE CAR WHINED LOUDLY WHEN THAT HAPPENED, THEN IT PLUMMETED BACK DOWN TO THE BARELY OVER 1 RMP. I MANAGED TO GET THE CAR BACK UP TO HIGHWAY SPEED ON A DOWNHILL PORTION OF THE HIGHWAY, AND GOT MYSELF ALMOST TO MY HOME. THE CAR CEASED TO ACCELERATE OR EVEN RECOGNIZE I WAS PUSHING ON THE GAS PEDAL AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT AN INTERSECTION 8 BLOCKS FROM MY HOME. I CALLED MY BOYFRIEND WHO CAME DOWN TO ASSIST A KIND NEIGHBOR WHO HEARD ME TRYING TO GET MY CAR GOING BY TURNING IT ON AND BACK OFF NUMEROUS TIMES TO NO AVAIL. HE THOUGHT IT "SIMPLY NEEDED TRANSMISSION FLUID", AS THE CAR SOUNDED LIKE IT WANTED TO GO....JUST COULDN'T "CATCH GEARS". THIS GENTLEMAN AND MY BOYFRIEND ENDED UP GIVING THE NISSAN A PUSH/RUNNING START AFTER I STARTED IT BACK UP AND PUT IT INTO DRIVE. INCREDIBLY, THIS ALLOWED THE CAR TO MAKE THE LAST 8 BLOCKS TO MY DRIVEWAY, WHERE THE CAR CAME TO A VERY ABRUPT, HALTING STOP AFTER PUTTING IT INTO PARK. TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT, MY DEALERSHIP IS NEARLY 100 MILES AWAY..LEAVING ME SOL.

Summary

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN VIRGINIA AND GOT OFF AT MY EXIT IN WOODBRIDGE. WHEN I GOT OFF AT THE EXIT, MY CAR STARTED REVVING, EVEN THOUGH I WAS ONLY DOING 30 MPH. MY CAR THEN DROPPED DOWN TO 25 AND THE RPMS KEPT REVVING. I'M IN TRAFFIC, CARS ARE SWERVING NOT TO HIT ME BECAUSE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 40 MPH. I ENDED UP PULLING INTO A SHOPPING CENTER WHERE MY CAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE BUT WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS. SINCE I WAS IN VIRGINIA TO VISIT A FRIEND, I DROVE MY CAR WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON FOR 2.5 (WHICH TOOK 20 MINUTES BECAUSE I COULDN'T GET OVER 25 MPH) AND PARKED IT AT HIS HOUSE. I ENDED UP HAVING IT TOWED FROM VIRGINIA BACK TO MARYLAND THE NEXT MONDAY. I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT WITH 36 MILES ON IT. I HAD ALREADY HAD MY TRANSMISSION REPLACE WITH THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY (NISSAN HAD TO REPLACE IT). THIS IS DANGEROUS. WHAT IF MY TRANSMISSION WOULD HAVE STARTED STALLING ON 95 SOUTH? I MIGHT NOW HAVE BEEN FILLING THIS COMPLAINT RIGHT NOW.

Summary

WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN SENTRA (66,000 MILES) ON THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED THE RPMS STARTED FLUCTUATING, FOLLOWED BY DIFFICULTY SHIFTING. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND CAME TO A FULL STOP. THE CAR WAS THEN UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. PUTTING IT IN PARK, TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AND ON AGAIN ALLOWED ME TO ACCELERATE AND DRIVE TO A GAS STATION. I CALLED MY MECHANIC, HE SAID IT COULD BE CONTAMINATED GAS, AND DIRECTED ME TO FIND A NEARBY AUTOZONE, WHERE AN EMPLOYEE SCANNED THE CAR AND AGREED IT WAS CONTAMINATED GAS. I PURCHASED SEAFOAM AND PUT IT IN THE GAS TANK, WITH ASSURANCES THAT THIS WOULD CLEAR UP THE ISSUE BUT THE RIDE MAY BE 'BUMPY'. I DECIDED TO FINISH MY DRIVE TO NEW ORLEANS. UPON ENTERING NEW ORLEANS AND SHIFTING TO STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, IT WAS APPARANT THE ISSUE HAD NOT RESOLVED ITSELF. THE VEHICLE WAS BARELY ACCELERATING OR SHIFTING. IT FELT VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THROUGH AN UNKNOWN CITY. THE FOLLOWING MORNING, I BROUGHT IT TO AUTOZONE AGAIN, THIS TIME THE SCAN SHOWED ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I HAD A TECHNICIAN REBOOT THE COMPUTER, BUT NOTHING CHANGED. NOT KNOWING THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE AND BEING 500+ MILES FROM HOME AND MY MECHANIC, I DECIDED TO RISK THE DRIVE BACK TO NASHVILLE, HAVING HAD EVERYONE AT THE AUTOZONE AND MY MECHANIC TELL ME AT 66K MILES THE TRANSMISSON SHOULD NOT NEED TO BE SERVICES. THE CAR WAS CLEARLY HAVING ISSUES, BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO HIGHWAY SPEED. I MADE IT TO ABOUT 200 MILES OUTSIDE OF NASHVILLE WHEN IT SIMPLY BECAME TOO UNSAFE FOR ME TO CONTINUE ON THE HIGHWAY. I GOT A TOW 200M HOME, DIRECTLY TO MY MECHANIC. HE INSPECTED THE TRANSMISSION THE FOLLOWING DAY AND FOUND THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS DANGEROUSLY LOW WITH NO SIGN OF LEAKAGE. AFTER CHANGING THE FLUID, HE DETERMINED THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I TOOK IT INTO CARMAX, WHERE I HAS PURCHASED THE VEHICLE JUST OVER A YEAR PRIOR. THEY CAME TO THE SAME CONCLUSION.

I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND ASKED TO HAVE A TECHNICIAN TAKE A RIDE WITH ME TO HEAR THE NOISE AND FEEL THE RATTLE. THE TRANSMISSION RATTLED FOUR TIMES AS WE CIRCLED THE BLOCK. HIS ANSWER WAS "THAT IS NOTHING, SOME TIMES THAT HAPPENS WHEN THE ROAD IS WET." I TOLD HIM THAT IT HAPPENS WET OR DRY AND HE AGAIN DISMISSED IT AS "NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT." WELL IT IS NOT 'NOTHING.' THE SHUTTER/RATTLE OCCURS WHEN I SLOWDOWN INTO A TURN, THEN ACCELERATE. OR IF I AM ON A STRAIGHT-AWAY AND BRAKE, THEN ACCELERATE IT WILL SHUTTER. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS THAT SOUND TOO SIMILAR TO BE A COINCIDENCE. MY WIFE IS AFFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AND I AM CONCERNED FOR OUR SAFETY.

Summary

WAS ON A 5-LANE HIGHWAY (SPEED LIMIT: 50MPH) AND COULD NOT ACCELERATE EFFECTIVELY. THE CAR BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SURGE AND THE ENGINE BEGAN INTERMITTENT REVING. LUCKILY, TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT AND I WAS ABLE TO NAVIGATE WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. UPON STARTING FROM A LIGHT, THE ENGINE LAGGED TRYING TO ACCELERATE LIKE IT HAD NO POWER. THEN IT REVVED TO REDLINE WITHOUT ANY ACCELERATION. ACCELERATION CONTROL WAS NOW COMPLETELY GONE ON A 40MPH ROAD. THANKFULLY, I MADE IT TO A TWO LANE ROAD OUT OF TRAFFIC WHEN IT HAPPENED AND COASTED APPROXIMATELY A HALF MILE HOME. CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH 62,000 MILES ON IT. THEY ADVISED THE CVT NOT REPAIRABLE AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT AS THEY FOUND PIECES OF THE DRIVE BELT AND WASHERS PRESENT IN THE TRANSMISSION PAN. THEY SAID THE FACTORY WARRANTY WAS 5-YEARS/60,000 MILES AND WOULD NOT ASSIST. CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. THEY DECLINED TO ASSIST STATING THEY WOULD NOT HELP BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, PREOWNED AND THEY COULD NOT LOCATE SERVICE RECORDS. THE DEALERSHIP NOW WANTS $3,800 TO REPLACE THE CVT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT AND WILL NOT ASSIST. IT CAUSES AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF ACCELERATION CONTROL AND NEAR STATIONARY TRAFFIC IMPEDANCE.

I AM SURE THERE ARE MANY SMALL WOMEN WHO WEIGH LESS THAN 120 LBS IN THIS COUNTRY.

Summary

ABOUT A WEEK AGO, MY CAR STARTED MAKING NOISES WHEN IDLING, WHICH I THOUGHT LITTLE OF BECAUSE MY CAR ONLY HAS AROUND 76,000 MILES ON IT AND IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS, THE NOISE BECAME A FULL-ON RATTLE (LIKE AN AMPLIFIED VERSION OF BIKE GEARS GRINDING). WHEN DRIVING, THE CAR WILL LURCH FORWARD AND WILL JERK EVEN HARDER WHEN TURNING. WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING EACH TIME I USE THE CAR, IT HAS NO POWER AND FEELS AS IF IT WANTS TO "PULL BACK" AND HINDER ME FROM MOVING FORWARD. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR TO TWO MECHANICS AND HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION LOOKED OVER. BOTH MECHANICS BELIEVE THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM. AFTER RESEARCHING CVC TRANSMISSIONS ON OTHER 2014 SENTRAS, I'VE DISCOVERED THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH EVEN LESS MILEAGE THAN MY OWN CAR. MANY OF THESE SENTRA DRIVERS FELT UNSAFE DRIVING THEIR VEHICLES. I TOO, FEEL THAT CONTINUING TO DRIVE MY CAR IS A HAZARD TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS AS THE FALTERING AND JERKING OF THE ENGINE ARE UNPREDICTABLE WHICH COULD CAUSE A POTENTIAL WRECK. NISSAN SENTRA TRANSMISSIONS FROM 2003-2010 HAVE BEEN RECALLED TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, BUT NOT FOR THE SUCCEEDING YEARS OF THE SAME MODEL. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION HAD A CATASTROPHIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE AFTER 25 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP AND 82,000 MILES. CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE. MY TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID HE SEES THIS ALL THE TIME WITH NISSAN'S CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURES. NISSAN DECLINED TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE WITH THE COST OF REPAIRS BECAUSE MY CAR WAS 22,000 MILES PAST THE LIMITED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, AND BECAUSE THIS YEAR SENTRA IS NOT PART OF ANY CURRENT TRANSMISSION RECALL. IT IS MY HOPE TO CALL ATTENTION TO A PRODUCT THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE RECALLED, AS IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES. CONSUMERS WHO BUY NISSAN SENTRAS ARE OFTEN BUDGET-MINDED, AND A REPAIR THAT EXCEEDS $4,000 IS NOT EXPECTED AT 2 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP, NOR SHOULD IT BE.

I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO NISSAN FEBRUARY 2015. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THIS YET. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 LAST TIME I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN NOV 28, I GAVE THEM A VIDEO I HAD TAKEN OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT INDICATING THE AIRBAG WAS DISABLED ON NOV 26 DURING A TRIP FROM SAN FRANCISCO TO LA. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WAS DISABLED DURING 120 MILES OF THE TRIP. THE TECHNICIAN SAID THAT THIS CAN HAPPEN IF I MOVE, LIKE LIFTING YOUR BUTT TO REMOVE YOUR WALLET OUT OF YOUR BACK POCKET, I JUST HAVE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN IT OFF, WAIT FOR A MINUTE AND START IT AGAIN. I POINTED OUT HOW RIDICULOUS THAT STATEMENT WAS. SO WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DRIVE ON A BUMPY ROAD? HE RESPONDED: OK, WE WILL RESET THE SENSOR BUT IT WILL PROBABLY NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. HE WAS RIGHT IN THAT, SAME EVENING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG GOT DISABLED AGAIN. I HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS OF THE AIR BAG BEING DISABLED AT MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING ON STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. THE CAR HAVE NOW BEEN IN TWICE FOR NISSAN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. BUT THEY DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO JUST THAT. *TR

Summary

MY TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT TWICE SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN JUNE 2015. IN OCTOBER 2015, MY CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN WHICH THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS ELECTRICAL WIRING FROM MY TAIL LIGHTS TO MY BRAKE. 3 MONTHS LATER, MY CAR HAS THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND THEY TELL ME THAT IT'S THE TRANSMISSION AND EVENTUALLY, AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS OF CONVERSING BACK AND FORTH, THEY FINALLY AGREE TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AFTER MY CAR WON'T SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR ON MY WAY HOME FROM SCHOOL, AROUND 10 PM, ON THE BYPASS GOING ABOUT 35MPH ALL BY MYSELF. IT TOOK APPROXIMATELY A MONTH FOR THE CAR TO START BEING SYMPTOMATIC, YET AGAIN. I TAKE IT BACK AND DROP IT OFF FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS. THEY CAN'T FIND THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM WITHOUT A SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON SO THEY TELL ME THERE'S NOTHING TO DO AND THEY SEND IT BACK TO ME. THIS HAPPENS A FEW TIMES WITHIN A COUPLE OF MONTHS. SEVERAL WEEKS GO BY WITH THE CAR STILL BEING SYMPTOMATIC AND NOT SHIFTING GEARS CORRECTLY. THE CAR KEEPS JUMPING AND WON'T DRIVE CORRECTLY SO I FINALLY TAKE IT BACK TO NISSAN, AFTER CALLING ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEM TELLING ME THAT NOTHING CAN BE DONE UNTIL THEY SEE A SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON THE CAR FOR IT TO THROW A CODE. TODAY, OCTOBER 3, 2016, I TAKE IT BACK TO COLUMBUS NISSAN AND ABOUT HALFWAY THERE, IT WON'T SHIFT. IT THEN WONT ACCELERATE ONCE I OFF OF THE BYPASS SO I HAD TO LITERALLY ROLL INTO THE PARKING LOT OF THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THEY THEN TELL ME THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING REALLY BECAUSE THE SERVICE LIGHT ISN'T ON AND THE SERVICE MEN ARE AT LUNCH. TIFFANY, AN EMPLOYEE OF COLUMBUS NISSAN, OFFERS ME A RIDE BACK TO MY APARTMENT AND TO LEAVE ME CAR THERE FOR THEM TO LOOK AT IT AFTER LUNCH. THEY LATER CALL ME AND TELL ME IT'S MY TRANSMISSION OUT YET AGAIN. THEY'RE WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM THE NISSAN USA BUSINESS.

Summary

EXTRA BRAKING REQUIRED TO COME TO A STOP - THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE BUT SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE REPORTED FOR THE 2013 VERSA. THE BRAKING REQUIRED MOST TIMES TO COME TO A STOP FROM A UNIFORM SPEED CAN VARY AT TIMES SO THAT SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EFFORT TO STOP THE VEHICLE IS NEEDED. EXAMPLE, ON MY NEIGHBOURHOOD STREET, APPROACHING THE STOP SIGN AT 25MPH, NORMALLY VERY LITTLE BRAKING NEEDS TO BE APPLIED. AT TIMES, WE HAVE NOTICED THAT A LOT MORE EFFORT IS NEEDED TO STOP THE VEHICLE EVEN AT SUCH A LOW SPEED. THIS INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE 2 MONTHS SINCE WE'VE BOUGHT THE CAR AND WOULD LEAD TO A CRASH IF THE BRAKING SYSTEM DOES NOT RESPOND IN A UNIFORM WAY.

CAR WAS PURCHASED ON MARCH,2014, WE HAVE REPLACED THE ALL 4 TIRES ALREADY, BEARING AND STRUT NEEDED TO REPLACED, THE BATTERY DIED, WHICH WAS REPLACED ON TUESDAY APRIL 19TH, 2016, BY PEPBOYS, BECAUSE NISSAN DID NOT COVER IT. WE HAVE RADIO PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THE CAR DOES NOT PICK UP THE KEY AND DOES NOT START. SOMETIMES THE INDICATIONS ON THE DASH BOARD SUCH AS MILEAGE, GAS MILEAGE GOES BLANK . ALSO MY RADIO STOPS AND THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM DOES NOT START. RADIO HAS BEEN FIXED 2 TIMES ALREADY. THE BIGGEST CONCERN IS THE MECHANICAL PROBLEMS, BECAUSE EVEN WITH A NEW BATTERY THAT IS 2 DAYS OLD, THE CAR DOES NOT START SOMETIMES. ALSO COURTESY NISSAN IN RICHARDSON TEXAS REFUSED TO HELP US WITH ANY OF THIS, EVEN THOUGH WE BOUGHT EXTENDED 100,000 MILE WARRANTY. CAR HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT NOW. AT THE TIME THESE PROBLEMS STARTED IT HAS 36,000 MILES. I ALSO FOUND INFORMATION ONLINE, THAT IS THIS CAR IS RECALLED, HOWEVER WHEN I CALL NISSAN THEY SAID IT WAS NOT. I HAVE A ONE YEAR OLD AND IF THIS CAR IS UNSAFE, NISSAN SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THAT.

THEY PERFORMED A ZERO POINT RESET AND SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE WHEN IT IS CLEARLY LISTED ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. I HAVE REAL CONCERNS THAT NISSAN HAS NOT SEEN FIT TO ORDER AN ACTUAL RECALL ON THIS DEFECTIVE ISSUE. BECAUSE UNTIL THEY DO THEIR DEALERS WILL NOT FIX THE SITUATION. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE WITH A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE THE DATE BELOW IS WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN.

Summary

MY GAS/ACCELERATION DECREASES WHILE DRIVING ON BUST HIGHWAYS. I WAS TOLD BY A SERVICE TECH A DOUGLAS NISSAN, WHERE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE BRAND NEW SEPTEMBER 2014, THAT THEY HAVE HAD 'SEVERAL' CUSTOMERS COMPLAIN OF THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT WHAT THEY HAVE FOUND IT TO BE IS A FAULTY BACK TAIL LIGHT AND COMPUTER READING GLITCH, THAT THEY HAVE FOUND MOISTURE BUILD UP DUE TO CONDENSATION (WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON) IN A BACK TAIL LIGHT CAUSES THE CAR TO 'THINK' IT IS IN REVERSE THUS CAUSING THE 'SKID' ICON TO APPEAR ON THE PANEL AND WHICH IS CAUSING THE CAR TO DECELERATE, THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ON SEVREAL OCCASIONS NOW WHERE MY SPEED HAS DECREASED TO 60 ON A 75 MH INTERSTATE HW IN DALLAS AND DRIVING NORTH TO SOUTH ON 45 AND ALMOST EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS OF DRIVING THE HOUR IT TAKES ME TO GET TO WORK IN THE DARK (I NEED MY LIGHTS). I AM TOLD THAT 'I' AM THE ONE WHO HAS TO PAY FOR THIS (A LIGHT COSTING 210.00 EACH AND LABOR AT 55.00 PER HOUR BECAUSE I AM AT 46000 MILES) EVEN THOUGHT THIS CLEARLY SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT, UNTIL I CAN AFFORD THE NEW LIGHTS, TO TRY TURNING MY LIGHTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND NOT TO USE MY FOG LIGHTS'I DRIVE IN THE DARK EVERY DAY'I MUST USE MY LIGHTS! I PRAY THIS BECOMES RECALL BECAUSE I CANNOT AFFORD THE REPAIR AND I PRAY MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE DOES NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS! THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 12 OCCASIONS NOW AND IT IS VERY SCARY!

Summary

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATES INDICATING THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IS DISABLED DURING TRAVEL INTERMITTENTLY BOTH WITH AND WITHOUT A PASSENGER PRESENT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IT HAS HAPPENED DURING ALL TYPES OF DRIVING AND SEEMS TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN MAKING A RELATIVELY SHARP RIGHT HAND TURN. DEALER DID UPDATE FIRMWARE AND/OR RE-CALIBRATE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM UNDER WARRANTY BUT THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I BELIEVE ONE OR MORE AIR BAG COMPONENTS IS INTERMITTENTLY FAILING. THE DURATION OF THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYING ILLUMINATED HAS BEEN ANYWHERE FROM A FEW SECONDS TO 30+ MINUTES. FIRST TAKEN TO DEALER IN JULY 2015, HAVE CALLED AND/OR BEEN BACK IN SEVERAL TIME SINCE. THEY HAVE STATED THEY MUST BE ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE IN ORDER TO DIAGNOSE/RESOLVE. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS AN AIR BAG SYSTEM INTERMITTENTLY FAILING, NOT SOMETHING LESS CRITICAL LIKE A RADIO OR AIR CONDITIONER.

Summary

2014 NISSAN SENTRA SL 4 DOOR SEDAN - FAULTY FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR. THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR IS SHOWING LESS FUEL THAT IS ACTUALLY IN THE TANK I.E. THERE IS MORE FUEL IN THE TANK THAN WHAT THE GAUGE INDICATOR SHOWING - AND IT GETTING WORSE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS THAT RECOMMENDS TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. I TOOK IT IN SEVERAL TIMES AND STILL IT HAPPENING I.E. THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST/NOT CORRECTED. DEALER REPLACE FUEL PUMP BUT PROBLEM STILL EXIST/NOT CORRECTED - AND DEALERS GIVING VARIOUS EXCUSES. IT IS VERY AGONIZING EMOTIONALLY, MENTALLY, SLEEPLESS NIGHTS, ETC. ETC. THINKING THAT THE VEHICLE WILL RUN OUT OF GAS AND LEFT ONE STRANDED. CANNOT TELL NOW IF THE DIGITAL OR MANUAL GAUGE READING IS CORRECT BECAUSE BOTH ARE DIFFERENT. PS. THIS GRADUALLY STARTED IN NOVEMBER 2014. I KEPT MONITORING IT AND IT GETTING WORSE, THEN I DECIDED TO CALL NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND TOOK IT BACK FOR REPAIRS ON AUGUST 31, 2015 - THEN AGAIN, SEPTEMBER 3, 2015 - THE AGAIN NOVEMBER 6, 2015 . THIS IS THE REASON FOR ME TO STATE "THE HAPPEN DATE" AS AUGUST 31, 2015. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT CAUSES OVER FILLING AND SPILLING OF GAS THAT CAN CAUSE A FIRE. I BELIEVE THERE IS A MALFUNCTION OF THE NISSAN FUEL PUMP AND THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THE NHTSA SPEEDILY INVESTIGATE THIS SAFETY MATTER. AFTER NOVEMBER 6, 2015 - I CALLED AND LEFT MESSAGES FOR THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE THAT HANDLES MY CASE, BUT SHE NEVER CONTACTED ME BACK.

Summary

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUES AS DESCRIBED IN YOUR INVESTIGATION "PE14-014." IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON A PAVED ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT WAS AS IF THE VEHICLE TOOK OVER THE STEERING, CAUSING ME TO HIT A CURB. NO DAMAGE WAS INCURRED, HOWEVER IT WAS VERY SCARY. MY CONCERN IS OBVIOUS, WHAT IF THE VEHICLE DOES THIS AGAIN WHEN I AM DRIVING ON A FREEWAY @ 65 MPH? THIS WAS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT WHEN "THE VEHICLE" HIT THE CURB. THE ABILITY TO BE IN CONTROL OF THE STEERING HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER BY THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES. THIS IS A NEW CAR AND I FIND IT EXTREMELY HARD TO BELIEVE I AM HAVING ALL THESE PROBLEMS. THESE ARE NOT EVERYDAY GENERAL MAINTENANCE ISSUES. THESE ARE MAJOR ISSUES WHICH COULD EASILY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WHEREBY I WOULD PROBABLY BE FOUND TO BE AT FAULT, WHEN THE REAL PERSON AT FAULT IS THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER! THIS IS BEING DOCUMENTED AND SAVED BY ME SHOULD, GOD FORBID, A SERIOUS ACCIDENT HAPPENS. ANY DIRECTION YOU MAY HAVE IS APPRECIATED.

I NOTICED SINCE OCTOBER OF 2014 THAT WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES IN THE CAR, THEY PULSATED UNDER MY FOOT. (THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN APRIL 2014) IT DID NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME, BUT I WAS PUZZLED...IT CONTINUED OFF AND ON FOR MONTHS AND EVENTUALLY I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FIXED IT AND RETURNED IT TO ME. I READ THE RECEIPT AND NOTICED THE PROBLEM WAS AS FOLLOWS: FRONT PADS COMING APART INTERNALLY CAUSING THE ROTORS TO BECOME WARPED; AND BOTH REAR WHEEL CYLINDERS COMING APART INTERNALLY. I WAS PRETTY SHOCKED AT THIS, AND 3 DAYS AFTER BEING REPAIRED I NOTICED THE SAME PULSING AGAIN AND TOOK THE CAR BACK. THEY KEPT IT FOR A FULL WEEK, AND TOLD ME THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I CALLED THE NISSAN CORPORATION AND ADVISED THEM I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE THIS CAR BECAUSE ITS UNSAFE. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD REVIEW MY REQUEST, AND THEN ADVISED ME THAT THEY WILL NOT BE REPURCHASING OR TAKING THE CAR BACK. IN THE MEANTIME, I DRIVE THIS CAR WITH GREAT FEAR AND CARE AS THE PULSING IS MORE FREQUENT, ESPECIALLY IF THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED SLOWLY, THE PULSING HAPPENS JARRINGLY AT THE END OF THE BRAKING. ONE OF THE TECHNICIANS I SPOKE TO TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD AN INTERNAL NOTICE FOR THIS MODEL , BUT ONLY IF A CUSTOMER BROUGHT IT IN. I FEEL THAT TAKING IT BACK TO NISSAN AGAIN IS GOING TO GET ME NOWHERE AND THAT THEY WILL ONCE MORE DECIDE NOTHING IS WRONG. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE IS FINANCED BY NISSAN, AND THIS MONTH I DID NOT PAY FOR THE VEHICLE AND I AM SURPRISED AND PUZZLED AS TO WHY NO ONE FROM NISSAN HAS CALLED TO ASK FOR PAYMENT. WHAT CAN I DO NOW? I AM AFRAID TO CONTINUE DRIVING THIS CAR. THANK YOU *TR

INCIDENT HISTORY# P14101613 DATE: 12/10/14 TIME: 1710 HOURS THE NEXT DAY, MY DAD WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT SOLD ME THE BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN SENTRA BACK IN MAY OF 2014 BUT THE MANAGER ON DUTY SAID IN HIS 30 YEARS WORKING THERE, HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF SUCH AN INCIDENT (SPONTANEOUS GLASS BREAKAGE). THEN, MY DAD WENT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC AND HE WORKED ON MY WINDOW TODAY, 12/19/14 AND SAW THAT THE METAL THAT IS USED ON MY WINDOW WAS SLIGHTLY BENT. THIS WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND UNSAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE BUT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS UNABLE TO HELP ME. I DON'T FEEL THAT I CAN DRIVE FAR ANY MORE BECAUSE THE METAL IS NOT FIXED DUE TO THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT, I FEAR THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN.

Summary

RANDOMLY MY BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKING ABILITY. IT HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THANK GOODNESS WHILE BACKING UP OR PARKED- HAVE HAD NO BRAKING ABILITY. I TOOK IT IN THE A NISSAN DEALER ( I HAD IT TOWED), AND THEY DEEMED IT OK. INFACT THEY SAID, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE TOWING, SINCE THEY HAD NO TICKET. IN THE END I DID NOT PAY IT. THEY BLED THE BRAKES AT THE END OF THE SERVICE APPOINTMENT, FOR AWHILE THE BRAKES WERE FINE. BUT RECENTLY IT HAS STARTED AGAIN, WHICH I WONDER IF AIR IS GETTING IN THE LINE SOMEHOW OR SOMETHING ELSE IS WRONG. I CALLED NISSAN CORP, AND THEIR POSITION IS THAT,"TRAINED TECHNICIANS DEEMED IT OK". WELL IT IS NOT, AND I AM GOING TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS LEASED. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT NISSAN CORP WOULD TAKE THIS STANCE WHEN BRAKES ARE INVOLVED. THE PROBLEM IS IT DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME, BUT WHAT IF I AM DRIVING 55 MILES AN HOUR AND NO BRAKES? WHAT THEN? I AM UPSET, BUT I WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS. THANK YOU. *TR
