CVT problem stopped on highway with kids in car put our life at risk called you all about the extended warranty or help fixing transmission. I was told it’s nothing you all can do because the warranty was expired but there’s a class action lawsuit saying thousands of people are having the same specific problem

The CVT transmission on this Nissan sentra vehicle failed at 100,000 miles. Had it failed before 84,000 miles it would have been covered under a warranty. The VIN shows this is a Nissan vehicle that had a known defective CVT transmission. Is there any way I can get repairs paid for by Nissan even though this transmission lasted longer than most of these defective CVT transmissions due to good maintainance?

The vehicle sustained major damage in a collision totaling the vehicle and no airbags deployed
Aug 19, 2025
On 6/22/25, I was in a side-impact collision while turning into a gas station. A driver waved me through, but another car came rushing through the outer lane and hit the front passenger side of my 2014 Nissan Sentra. The impact caused serious damage, but none of the airbags deployed. There were no warning lights before or after. My hip hit the emergency brake during the collision. I felt okay at first, but I’m starting to notice some discomfort now. I also have scoliosis, which makes even small impacts something I have to watch closely. My VIN shows no recalls, but I’ve found this model has had known airbag issues. I’m reporting this as a serious safety failure. If this had happened at higher speeds, it could’ve been fatal.

Oct 27, 2025
The transmission is flawed and a safety hazard as it goes out at very low miles and stops working in traffic causing accidents to nearly happen. When I looked it up it’s very common for this to happen in this make of model.

My moonroof spontaneously exploded while driving to work on the interstate. There was a very loud boom that sounded like a bomb or tire exploding and then glass started raining down on me while driving. Luckily, my children were not with, as there were small pieces of glass throughout the interior cabin including the back seat where they sit. I was driving alongside a semi when it happened and was at about the mid point of the semi's length. I initially thought the semi's tire blew and debris hit a passenger side window until the glass started falling on me. I live in Michigan. The temperature was around 30 degrees to 32 degrees. No snow, rain, or ice was on the moonroof or on the road that could have been kicked up to cause the break. The road and adjacent ground were completely dry. I parked in the garage overnight and had been on the road approximately 15 minutes when it happened. I was driving approximately 76 mph. This is the second time my moonroof exploded with this vehicle. The first time happened approximately 5+ years ago and the glass was replaced by a local glass shop under an insurance claim with Progressive Insurance. With the first incident, the result was a round hole maybe 9" in diameter, so I thought a large rock hit it. I was completely distraught over it, pulled over to the side of the road in morning rush hour traffic, and searched for a rock in the car. I found nothing. At the time of the first incident, it happened during a warmer Michigan month; though, I do not recall the specific timeframe. It was well above 50 degrees when it happened. I had been on the road for maybe 10 minutes and was driving approximately 70 mph. Now that it has happened a second time, I am absolutely convinced both incidents were due to a vehicle flaw. It happened yesterday, 12/11/2023. I have an appointment on 12/14/2023 with Graff Nissan in Okemos to have it reviewed. I am looking for a new vehicle because I'm scared to drive it.

Transmission suddenly went out while driving on a busy road after no prior issues and left me stranded. After that, it completely locked up and won’t even roll in neutral. Car was only 9 years old, 93,500 miles. Per mechanic it needs to be replaced and has seen other young Nissan transmissions with the same issues.

Daughter described pushing break to the bottom /or floor boards while the car slowly began to slow. Yes, the vehicle is currently available for inspection. An impact occurred to daughter which caused bruising and duress. Another vehicle was struck. No, the problem has not been confirmed by a dealer or independent service ctr.

Subject: 2014 NISSAN SENTRA TRANSMISSION Nissan has not recalled the 2014 Nissan Sentra. there are thousands of complaints online and at dealers. My warranty has expired last August 2021 and I only have 53354 milage. The dealer quoted me 4k to fix. I called Nissan Corporate and they said they would cover half of cost. This car is not safe to drive it changes speeds without notice and doesn't accelerate. It goes from 65mph to 45mph. This is dangerous on the highway. The dealer and corporate are aware of the danger. Confused at why would I have to pay a dime to fix if they know there are issues with the transmission.

TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, HESITATING, AND LUNGING. SOME TIMES CAUSES SUDDEN ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION, ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS. CAR IS ALSO STARTING TO MAKE ABNORMAL SOUNDS FROM TIME TO TIME, WHICH STARTED WHEN THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES STARTED. SOMETIMES THE CAR HAS EVEN TRIED TO LUNGE FORWARD WHEN BRAKE IS APPLIED IN A STOPPED POSITION. THIS TRANSMISSION WAS ALREADY CHANGED ONCE BECAUSE ORIGINAL OWNER COMPLAINED OF LACK OF ACCELERATION. THE CAR ONLY HAS 50K ON IT. TAKING IT TO NISSAN SERVICE CENTER THIS WEEKEND! BUT I CAN IMAGINE WHAT I'M GOING TO HEAR.

WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROX. 30 MPH TURNING AT THE END OF AN EXIT RAMP OFF THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SLOWED DOWN AS IF IT WAS SHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD, TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN BUT COULD ONLY GO 6 MPH WITHOUT JERKING VIOLENTLY. AFTER STOPPING, TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN NUMEROUS TIMES, WAS INTERMITTENTLY ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO GO FASTER THAN 6 MPH ONLY TO HAVE IT SUDDENLY SLOW DOWN AGAIN, JERKING WITHIN 1-2 MINUTES. IT TOOK ONE AND A HALF HOURS TO TRAVEL 16 MILES BACK HOME. NOT SURE WHATS WRONG...TRANSMISSION, SPEED SENSORS OR OTHER? I'VE GONE ONLINE AND SEEN OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. WHY HASN'T NISSAN BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE? NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS LEMON !

Transmission failure in under 3 years. I replaced my transmission and rear assembly in 2022-23. It started with pressing the gas pedal and the car wouldn’t accelerate while in heavy traffic. I spent over $3,000 on a brand new engine. Come 2024 the exact same problem with the repair price being quoted at around $7,000. There was no hard driving on the car so I don’t understand how it’s going so soon. I’ve never had so much trouble with a car.

I've gone to the Nissan center in Antioch to have the transmission fixed due to a failure on the freeway. Cars Rpms went up and my foot was pressed down on the accelerator. The Center said they fixed it and I shouldn't have issues. 4 years later I'm starting to have the same issues.

Hello I was driving on the highway yesterday when my transmission failed. The car stopped accelerating and would not increase speed despite my foot being on the gas. I was hit several times before navigating to the median. If not for me being calm under pressure my life and the lives of other motorists were at risk. This is unacceptable.

MY 2014 NISSAN SENTRA WAS STARTING TO SLIP AS I WAS DRIVING, MIND YOU MY CAR HAS ONLY 113 THOUSAND PLUS MILES ON IT. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER AFTER PAYING 140 DOLLARS TO HAVE HAVE THE CODE READ, I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION, 31036-9AM2A. THEY SAID IT WAS A COMMON ISSUE THAT NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT AND GAVE ME THE COSTUMER SERVICE NUMBER TO CALL, WITH A $3600 COST ESTIMATE. AFTER LEAVING THE DEALER I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT DUE TO THE MILEAGE THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. AFTER HEARING THIS I BEGAN TO DO SOME RESEARCH AND I FOUND THAT THIS IS INDEED A COMMON ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS. THEY HAVE EXTENDED SOME WARRANTIES TO 120 THOUSAND MILES OR 5 YEARS HOWEVER I WAS TOLD MY CAR MILEAGE EXCLUDES ME FROM THIS WARRANTY. WHAT YEARS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS WARRANTY. PLEASE HELP.

My Nissan Sentra burst into flames on July 27,2022-not sure why this occurred; the car was last serviced before this incident on June 17, 2022-the car's Compressor/AC were replaced. I had just parked the car at a hotel when the fire began. The only inspection was from a fire marshal and the insurance company that car was a complete loss. There was no warning when this happened and had I had a full tank of gasoline this would have gravely injured me. The car had seven years of meticulous upkeep so this catastrophe was totally unexpected. The autos parked on either side of me suffered serious damage as well.

While driving the car in the city, the car suddenly lost the ability to accelerate. I was stalled in the middle of an intersection to turn left. I was almost hit several times as the light cycles twice and I traffic wouldn't allow me to push the car. After five minutes, this seemed to rectify itself. However, the car started to shudder and a light grinding could be heard when driving. Then the inability to accelerate started again. I immediately took the vehicle to a repair facility. They inspected the car and said I needed to take the car to a dealer as they felt it was a transmission issue and that my car had a terrible reputation with CVT troubles. I took it to a Nissan dealer and when I described the issue they said it would be 3 weeks before I could be seen. I'm still waiting for the appointment date (Dec 20, 2021)

I GOT INTO MY CAR AFTER I HAVE ALREADY TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND GOT THE 1 RECALL FIXED AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS POPPED ON AGAIN! SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED THIS CAR WHICH HAS BEEN LITTLE THAN OVER 2 WEEKS IT HAS HAD ISSUE AFTER ISSUE. WHEN DRIVING THE CAR SOMETIMES IT SEEMS LIKE IT WANTS TO CUT OFF AND WHILE DRIVE ITS LIKE THERE IS A TURBO ENGINE IN IT BECAUSE IT MAKES A LOUD NOISE WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING IT AND SOMETIMES (MOST OF THE TIME) IT ALMOST SEEMS HARD TO CONTROL THE CAR WHILE DRIVING ON THE HWY.

HI I HAVE 3 ISSUES WITH MY CAR, IT'S A 2014 NISSAN CENTRA, THE FIRST ISSUE IS THE TRANSMISSION IT'S REALLY BAD I HAVE ALREADY TOO IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AN SAID THEY FIXED THE ISSUE BUT IT'S STILL DOING THE SAME THING, WHEN YOU GO TO TAKE OFF FROM A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN IT WANTS TO HESITATE TAKING OFF, IT SPITTING AND JERKS AND THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T WANT TO CHANGE GEARS, I HAVE A AUTOMATIC BUT IT ACTS LIKE A STRAIGHT SHIFT SO WHEN IT HESITATES I HAVE TO PUSH THE GAS NOR TO GET IT TO GO BUT IF YOU MASH THE GAS TO HARD IT WILL TAKE OFF FAST AFTER IT SPITS, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS, I HAVE ALMOST SLAMMED INTO THE BACK OF A FEW VEHICLES BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE TRIED TO PULL OUT FROM A SIDE ROAD AND A CAR WOULD BE COMING AN I KNOW I HAVE TIME TO GET OUT BUT WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WANTS TO ACT CRAZY AN IT STARTS HESITATING TO GO, I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES. THAT'S NOT ALL MY OTHER ISSUE IS WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER, THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IT HAS WENT OUT IN THE LAST YEAR, I WENT AND HAD IT SERVICED AN THEY SAID IT WAS THE AIR COMPRESSOR, I TOOK IT TO PEP BOYS AND THE GUY THAT LOOKED AT IT HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAS HAD 47 NISSAN CENTRAS IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS TO BE SERVICED FOR THE SAME REASONS, WELL ONE DAY THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS FINE BUT THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO TURN IT ON AND IT IS BLOWING NOTHING BUT HOT AIR SO HE CHECKED IT AND HE SAID THE COMPRESSOR WENT OUT AGAIN!! THE OTHER ISSUE IS YESTERDAY I WENT TO GET DINNER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AND MY CAR DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 40,000 MILES ON IT YET, I REALLY HOPE WRITING TO YOU ABOUT THESE THINGS GOING WRONG WILL OPEN THE NISSAN COMPANY'S EYES BEFORE SOMEONE ACTUALLY GET KILLED DRIVING ONE OF THEIR CARS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT OF YOUR DAY TO READ THIS. AND I HOPE YOU CAN GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THESE ISSUES BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS HURT, ALL THESE PROBLEMS IN 3 WEEKS.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES SINCE 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT IN 2018. CAR RPM JUMPS UP AND DOWN WHEN DRIVING. CAR SHUTS OFF WHEN I'M PARK AND LEFT IN IDLE SOMETIMES, IT TAKES A LOT TO TURN LEFT OR RIGHT IN THE VEHICLE. HAD TRANSMISSION REPLACED IN THE BEGINNING OF 2019 THINKING IT WILL FIX IT, BUT THE ISSUE STILL OCCURS. I'VE TAKEN IT TO MECHANICS AND THEY ALL SUGGESTED TO CONTACT NISSAN. I'VE SPENT ALMOST 4,000-6,000 ON REPAIRS WITHIN THE LAST TWO YEARS. ALL RELATED TO THE SAME ISSUE

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??

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!

While driving, I noticed smoke coming from the front of the vehicle. Within moments, flames appeared in the engine area and spread quickly, causing severe damage to the front portion of the car including the engine, electrical system, and body. No warning lamps, error messages, or unusual behavior were observed prior to the incident. The fire started suddenly without any indication of mechanical or electrical issues. My safety and the safety of others nearby were put at risk as the fire escalated rapidly. The problem has not been reproduced or inspected by the manufacturer or dealer yet, but the vehicle was completely disabled and is no longer operable due to the fire damage. Cause of the fire is UNKNOWN at this time.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated while driving 35-65 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle was slow to respond and to stop. The brake pedal was depressed to the floorboard. The contact stated that the engine, traction control, and ABS warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the brakes needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the same local dealer where it was diagnosed, and it was determined that the oxygen sensor, rotors, and brake pads needed to be replaced.

While I’m driving it starts to stall. Especially after I press on the breaks and try to press on the gas again it being ins to like jerk and not want to go. I thought it was my suspension or that it needed a wheel alignment but after paying for those to get renewed it’s still having that problem and the mechanic said it was most likely the transmission.

The check engine light keeps coming on with a P0101 indication Mass or Volume Air Flow Curcuit Range/ Performance Problem. The filter was changes, the Mass Air Flow Sensor was changes, and the PCV valve was changed but the light keeps coming on. The vehicle also will not accelerate as fast and sometimes will not go over a certain speed. The vehicle sometimes startes to rolls backwards when in drive when idling. The vehicle also shakes when slowing down from a higher speed i.e. when you are on the freeway and then have to slow to lower speeds no matter how much distance you give. I have almost been rear ended and run backwards at the light because the vehicle goes backwards then goes forward. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR 2014 NISSIAN OWNERS.

I brought my car to a nissan dealer and was informed that my car was one of many with a faulty CVT Transmission. My car is 6 months and 4,000 miles past the warranty so they cant help me, but im hoping you can help others before someone is killed by their defective car.

2014 Nissan Sentra -My abs system light came on failed inspection and had to be replaced. I had 32,322 miles on my car. I am 73 years old and for me to pay out over $1000,00 for a part that should not have failed according to the three certified mechanics. The light appeared the day I took it in to get my inspection sticker. This is so disheartening, to say the least. other models have been recalled ...my mechanic said it would be dangerous to drive it ...I contacted Nissan and all they could say was it's not under warranty and they have no recalls on my year. if you could help or direct me how to get help I would greatly appreciate it

FUEL PUMP FAILURE AT 75K MILES.

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.

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.

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

MY 2014 NISSAN SENTRA HAS ISSUES WITH ACCELERATION. AT VARIOUS TIMES EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR FULL PUSHED DOWN, THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE AND WILL EVENTUALLY SLOW TO UNDER 20 MPH EVEN ON A FLAT SURFACE. NISSAN HAS REPAIRED THE ISSUE ONCE, BUT NOW WILL NOT RESPOND TO MY CORRESPONDENCE IN REGARDS TO THE ISSUE, NOW THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, I HAVE LESS THAN 45K ON THE CAR. IN ADDITION, THE TAILS LIGHTS ARE RETAINING MOISTURE, I HAVE READ THAT THIS MAY BE CAUSING A SHORT IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND MAY BE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AND IT IS NOW PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS UNRESOLVED. MILEAGE AT THE FIRST INCIDENT IS APPROXIMATE, BUT IT DID HAPPEN LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR NEW.

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.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
1 complaint
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.

WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON, THE CRUISE CONTROL CUT OUT AND MY CAR STARTED SLOWING DOWN. I DEPRESSED THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR CONTINUED TO SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 45 MPH, THEN STARTED SLOWLY GAINING SPEED. AFTER WORK, I DROVE HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT. NEXT DAY WAS FOGGY SO NOT USING CRUISE CONTROL. VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AGAIN FROM 60 MPH DOWN TO ABOUT 45 MPH. ALSO GOT NO RESPONSE WHEN DEPRESSING GAS PEDAL. THIS TIME THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON. DROVE HOME AFTER WORK WITHOUT INCIDENT. I HAD GOTTEN THE OIL CHANGED THE DAY BEFORE THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED. I HAD NO PREVIOUS PROBLEMS PRIOR TO THAT. THE ISSUE SEEMS TO HAVE RESOLVED ITSELF AS THE CAR IS RUNNING FINE NOW. IF IT OCCURS AGAIN, I'LL HAVE IT CHECKED OUT.

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.
