2013 Nissan Sentra complaints

THESE ARE ALL OF THE PROBLEMS I'M EXPERIENCING; LOSS OF POWER, TRANSMISSION JERKING, TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, CVT COOLANT HOSE LEAKS AND FAILURES. ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS IN MOTION ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND MY CAR COULDN'T GO OVER 35MPH. NOT ONLY WAS I ENDANGER MY CHILD WAS ALSO IN THE BACK SEAT TO DO THE FACT MY CAR COULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL!! I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING THESE PROBLEMS FOR SOME TIME NOW BUT THE LOSS OF POWER WAS THE LAST STRAW. AND THEN I START DOING RESEARCH ON MY CAR AND FIND OUT NISSAN HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY THEIR ISN'T SOME TYPE OF RECALL ON THESE UNSAFE VEHICLES. ITS A DANGER TO MY FAMILY AND THE OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!

MY DAUGHTER OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA CTV. HER VEHICLE STARTED DRIVING SLOW, JERKING IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE ALL DRIVING. IT WOULD ACCELERATES BUT MOVE VERY SLOW. THE MPR WOULD REV UP BUT OBO WOULDNT MOVE. NISSAN DEALERSHIPS INSPECTED IT AND STATED IT WOULD BE 4500 TO FIX. UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAD IT FIX. HER CAR ONLY HAD 69000 MILES AT THE TIME WE HAD OT FIX. THIS WAS A GREAT DEAL OF A FINANCIAL HARDSHIP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE, THE RPMS INCREASED, AND THE VEHICLE JERKED AND DECELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CALLED IPAC NISSAN AT 210-681-6300 (LOCATED AT 6990 NW LOOP 410, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78238) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT PROVIDED.

ON 07/09/2019, WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 60 MPH - 65 MPH, TRAVELING UP A SLIGHT OVERPASS, THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON MY 2013 NISSAN SENTRA SL SHIFTED, TO WHAT SEEMS TO ME, TO BE, THE 1ST GEAR. THE RPM IMMEDIATELY SHOT UP TO 7,000 RPM. I IMMEDIATELY RELEASED THE ACCELERATOR, BUT IT CONTINUED TO REV AROUND 5,000-7,000 RPM. I WAS LUCKY THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME SWERVED TO AVOID HITTING ME. THE TORQUE ALONE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO 40MPH, I CAME TO A STOP, PLACED IT IN PARK, AND TURNED OF MY VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY. THIS OCCURRED AT THE JUNCTION ON INTERSTATE - 45 SOUTH, ON 2ND RIGHT LANE FOR EXITS TO 610 - EAST AND WEST. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED WITHIN .5 - 1 MILES OF THESE COORDINATES ON I-45 SOUTH: 29.820626, -95.378574. THIS ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN ON THE SAME DAY TRAVELING NORTH ON THE AIRLINE HOV LANE. I'VE ATTACHED A SCREEN SHOT OF A VIDEO I WAS ABLE TO TAKE DURING THE SECOND INCIDENT OF THE THAT DAY. VEHICLE IN MOTION AT HIGH SPEEDS 60-65 MPH IN HOUSTON TX ON INTERSTATE-45 SOUTH. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING UP A SLIGHT OVER PASS. HOWEVER, THIS SAME ISSUE HAS OCCURRED ON A FLAT ROAD TRAVELING AT LOWER SPEEDS IN SITUATIONS OF STOPPING THEN ACCELERATING TO HIGHER SPEEDS (35 MPH OR 45 MPH). IT'S SLUGGISH TO SHIFT GEARS WITH A JERK MOTION WHEN IT FINALLY DOES SHIFT. THE UNSAFE CONDITION WAS INTRODUCED WHEN THE TRANSMISSION CAUSED MY CAR NOT TO ACCELERATE ON THE HOUSTON HIGH, IN A SITUATION WHERE CARS ARE MERGING OR SWITCHING LANES TO TAKE EXITS. I SPOKE TO A LOCAL NISSAN DE

TRANSMISSION SHIFTING ON ITS OWN. ACCELERATE AND DECELERATE ON ITS OWN. GEAR NOT FULLY GRABBING.

THE TRANSMISSION HAS APPROXIMATELY 88K MILES AND IN THE LAST 10K THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SKIPPING GEARS, HAVING PROGRESSIVE DIFFICULTY SHIFTING UP AND DOWNHILL; THERE'S JARRING AND JERKING WHEN ACCELERATING AND DE-ACCELERATING. IT MOST OFTEN HAPPENS ON DECLINES INCLINES STOPS DURING DRIVING, AND TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I'VE SEEN THAT MANY 2013 NISSAN OWNERS EXPERIENCE SIMILAR ISSUES

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WONT GO OFF. WAS IN MOTION ON I 95

TOTAL TRANS MISSION FAILURE 2 TIMES. ONCE AT 60K MILES, COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WENT IN BEFORE WARRANTY WAS OVER AND COMPLAINED ABOUT MY TRANSMISSION. THEY RAN A TEST AND SAID IT WAS FINE AND SENT ME HOME. TOLD ME THAT WAS THE WAY IT DRIVES AND IT'S FINE. I DONT EVEN THINK THEY DROVE IT OR THEY WOULD HAVE KNOWN WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE MAJOR HIGHWAY ROAD RPM WILL GO ALL WAY TO 6 THEN BACK DOWN TO 2 BACK AND FORTH AND THE CAR WILL JERK WITHOUT ME PUSHING THE GAS AND USUALLY GOING AT NORMAL RATE OF SPEED , TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND A JERKING , SOMETIMES WHEN COMING TO AN INTERSECTION THE RPM HAND WOULD GO UP TO 6 WITHOUT WARNING , ALMOST PROPELLING ME ON THRU THE INTERSECTION VERY DANGEROUS , I AM AFRAID FOR MY LIFE WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PROBLEM

I WAS DRIVING FOR 2 HOURS STRAIGHT ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN SO I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF WAITED FOR LIKE A MINUTE AND THE CAR STARTED TO PICK UP SPEED WITH JERKING THEN I CONTINUE FOR A WHILE WHEN I CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND TRIED TO PROCEED IT WOULDN'T GO SO I TURNED THE CAR OFF AGAIN WAITED AND IT SLOWLY PICKED UP SPEED AFTER ME FLOORING THE PEDAL THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BUT I DID GET A RECALL LETTER IN THE MAIL AWHILE BACK BUT IT STATED IF THE CAR IS AT 150,000 MILES THEN SOMETHING ELECTRICAL WOULD MALFUNCTION MY VEHICLE IS AT 98,000 I WAS TRAVELING ON THE ROAD IN MOTION WHILE ALL THIS OCCURRED I EVENTUALLY HAD TO GET A TOW HOME

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. THE CAR WAS JERKING WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE. WE WERE ABLE TO GET IT TO A DEALERSHIP, AND WE WERE TOLD THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. THE LABOR AND PART COST US $3,800. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE TRANSMISSIONS.

THE CAR SHOWED P2859 WHICH INVOLVED CVT TRANSMISSION CODE. I SEE THAT THERE HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUES ABOUT THE CVT WHICH UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING THRU THE HIGHWAY..

THE RPM IN MY NISSAN SENTRA 2013 STARTED TO FLUCTUATE WHILE DRIVING IT WASN'T DOING IT TOO MUCH AT FIRST BUT NOW IT DOES IT CONTINUOUSLY AND IT'S SO ANNOYING WHEN I'M DRIVING I TOOK IT TO MY NEAREST NISSAN LOCATION AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND THAT I HAVE TO GET IT REPLACED WHICH SUCKS BECAUSE IT' JUST REACHED 100K MILES I HAVE ALWAYS HAD GREAT MAINTENANCE WITH IT I DON'T WANT TO PAY ALMOST 5K FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION WHEN THE MILEAGE ISN'T EVEN SUPER HIGH, I DID MY RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE EXACT MODEL AND MAKE AND WITH NEWER NISSANS TOO WITH LOWER MILEAGE SO IT'S JUST NOT FAIR I LOVE MY NISSAN SENTRA BUT THIS IS JUST NOT FAIR I REALLY BELIEVE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL FOR THESE CARS WITH HORRIBLE TRANSMISSION DEFECTS. PLEASE PLEASE NISSAN LOOK INTO THIS

CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 50MPH WITH FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN. RPM WAS BOUNCING AL OVER THE PLACE AND CAR WAS BEING VERY JERKY AT LOWER SPEEDS ON FREEWAY. AS SOON AS I REACHED ABOUT 40MPH THE RPM NEEDLE DID NOT MOVE AT ALL WHILE GETTING TO 50MPH. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN A YEAR THAT MY TRANSMISSION HAS HAD ISSUES.

I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR LAST YEAR THE REASON I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE OF GOOD GAS MILAGE AND TRANSMISSION . I HAVE BUYING NISSAN SINCE 1993 AND RIGHT NOW I HAVE 2 ALTIMAS 1 SENTRA 1 QUEST EVERY OTHER CAR IS DOING GOOD EXCEPT SENTRA I HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM ITS NOT CHANGING THE GEARS AND AC IS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR. PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THESE ISSUES BECAUSE I STILL HAVE 4 MORE YEARS OF PAYMENTS AND KNOWING NISSAN CARS THEY USUALLY GO TO 200K WITHOUT MAJOR PROBLEMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V242000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ACME NISSAN (2050 US-130, MONMOUTH JUNCTION, NJ, (732) 821-9300) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED BEFORE THE RECALL REPAIR COULD BE COMPLETED; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT DECLINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.

VEHICLE STUTTERS AND JOLTS WHEN NEEDING TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY. RPMS SHOOT UP TO 7-8 ON INCLINES AT 60-70MPH WHEN CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED. VEHICLE STUTTERS AT SLOW ACCELERATIONS AFTER STOP SIGNS AND RED LIGHTS. ON 2 SEPARATE INSTANCES, WHILE IN MOTION, VEHICLE REVS TO 4+ RPMS BUT IS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST 40MPH. VEHICLE HAS 77K MILES AND IS CURRENT ON ALL SERVICES. TOOK TO NISSAN DEALER AND THEY DIAGNOSED A FAILED TRANSMISSION WITH REPAIR OF $4800.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED INTERMITTENTLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO TOWN CENTER NISSAN (2310 BARRETT LAKES BLVD, KENNESAW, GA 30144, (770) 423-9691) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION AND GEAR SHIFT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING 20-25 MPH, THE ODOMETER DISPLAYED INCORRECT READINGS AND THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED THEN THE VEHICLE DECELERATED. THE VEHICLE HESITATED WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT GO INTO THE PROPER GEARS. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT A TRANSMISSION RANGE PERFORMANCE WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED TWO MONTHS LATER. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,411.

ONE DAY I GOT IN MY CAR WITH MY MOTHER AND IT TOLD ME THAT THE PASSAGER AIR BAG WAS OFF BUT SHE WAS SITTING IN IT. I HAD JUST TURNED IT ON AND THE DAY BEFORE THAT IT WAS FINE. ALSO THE ONE ON MY DASH SAID THAT THERE WAS A AIR BAG PROBLEM. IT WASN'T HIT OR TOUCHED IT WAS TRULY OVER NIGHT INFRONT OF MY HOUSE THEN THE LIGHTS FOR THE AIR BAG WERE ON WHEN I STARTED MY CAR.

"MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR RECALL" AND COMPONENTS THERE OF OR INTAKE FUEL/PERFORMANCE REDUCTORS...CHECK ENGINE CODE P0101. WHILE RUNNING THE VEHICLE LOOSES POWER AND STRUGGLES TO GO FASTER ENTERING FREEWAYS OR UP HILLS ALSO HAVE TO USE MORE GAS LATELY. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT LIT UP...REPLACED THE PART TO NO AVAIL...LIGHT IS OFF A DAY OR TWO THEN RETURNS... WHICH MEANS ISSUE IS NOT FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL WHEN I FIRST STEP IN THE CAR TO TAKE A TEST DROVE, IT SEEM LIKE IT WAS OK . IT DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM BUT WHEN I DROVE IT HOME , ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE AND IT TOOK ABOUT 60 SECOND FOR THE GEAR TO SWITCH. THE CAR SEEN AS THOUGHT IT WAS OVERHEATING WHEN I HAVEN'T EVEN DROVE IT LONG . I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HE SAID “ I WAS COVERED WITH WARRANTY “ AND THAT “I WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT PAYING ANYTHING.” HE GAVE ME A LOAN CAR AND HAVE BEEN EXTENDED IT FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS BECAUSE MY CAR STILL HAVEN'T BEEN FIX YET . I ALSO FOUND THAT MY CAR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BY THE WARRANT BUSINESS BECAUSE THEY SAID THE CAR WASN'T IN GOOD CONDITION WHEN I BROUGHT IT. THEY DENIED THE REQUEST OF FIXING THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER REFUSES TO GIVE ME ANOTHER TEMP TAG AND TOLD ME TO LEAVE HIM PREMISES. I HAVE BEEN PAYING ON A CAR THAT I HAVE NOT HAD FOR TWO MONTHS AND I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS AN UNJUST SITUATION. I HOPE THAT THE OTHER CUSTOMERS AREN’T GETTING TREATED LIKE MYSELF .

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND THE FUEL GAUGE ON DASHBOARD STARTED TO ACTING OUT; I THOUGHT MY CAR WAS LEAKING GAS, BUT I COULD NOT SMELL IT. I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS ELECTRIC. I CALLED NISSAN OF HUNTINGTON TO REPORT THE PROBLEM AND MAKING AN APPOINTMENT, BUT IT WAS TOO LATE (3:45PM), SO I HAD TO BRING MY CAR TO CENTERPORT AUTOMOTIVE. THEY SCANNED MY CAR'S COMPUTER SYSTEM AND: "CODE PO 463 FUEL PUMP SENDING UNIT MALFUNCTION CODE". AS A RESULT, THEY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND SENDING UNIT ASSEMBLY IN FUEL TANK. MY CAR WAS 35472 MILES AT THE TIME THIS WORK WAS DONE. HAD TO PAY 681.37 DOLLARS + NYS SALE TAXES. I WOULD LOVE TO BE REIMBURSED SINCE A FUEL PUMP LASTS MORE THAN 125,000 MILES. THOUSANDS OF 2013 NISSAN SENTRA CARS HAVE A FUEL SYSTEM RECALL, BUT NOT THIS PARTICULAR VIN NUMBER.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS ON IN THE DASH BOARD AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS ON EVEN A PASSENGER IS SEATED IN THE CAR.

SHIFTING FREQUENTLY LOCKING UP WHILE DRIVING CAUSING DISTRACTION AND INABILITY TO ACCELERATE. UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS OR IN THREATENING SITUATIONS. ON ONE OCCASION I WAS UNABLE TO PROPERLY ACCELERATE TO PASS A SEMI-TRUCK WHILE FACING ONCOMING TRAFFIC CAUSING ME TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE VEHICLE THE TRANSMISSION DANGEROUSLY AVERTS MY ATTENTION FROM SAFE DRIVING.

MY CAR STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A SLOW DOWN OR STOP.IT START THE END OF 2016 BUT IT WAS ONCE EVERY FEW WEEKS. I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN OXFORD MS IN 2017 AND HAD IT TESTED AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. IT IS MUCH WORSE NOW. IT USE TO BE A COUPLE TIMES A MONTH AT FIRST NOW IT HAPPENS ON AT LEAST HALF OF THE ACCELERATIONS FROM BEING STOPPED OR SLOWED ESPECIALLY IF YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY. I HAVE READ ABOUT OTHER CARS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THE HAVE ISSUED A BULLETIN FOR IT TO BE TESTED AND REPAIRED AT MY COST. THIS SHOULD BE NISSAN'S EXPENSE PLUS ANY DAMAGE IT HAS COST WITH ME DRIVING IT THIS WAY FOR 50,00 MILES AFTER THEY SAID IT WAS ANYTHING TO BE FIXED. THIS IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED. THIS STARTED AT 52,000 MILES NOW IT HAS 99,000 MILES IT WAS TESTED AT 56,000 MILES.

BRAKES GO OUT EASY/BOTTOM OF CAR IS A TOTAL MESS AND NON STOP PROBLEMS.

IM CURRENTLY THE SECOND OWNER ON WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A GOOD VEHICLE. I HAD NO CLUE THAT SO MANY PEOPLE HAD THE ISSUES I WAS HAVING. IT STARTED TWO WEEKS AFTER I HAD PUTCHASED MY VEHICLE. I WOULD ACCELERATE LIKE NORMAL AND TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL TO COAST TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT L, THE LIGHT CHANGES AND TURNED GREEN. I WOULD REAPPLY MY FOOT TO THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CVT WOULD THUD SO I TOOK IT TO BE REPAIRED AND WAS TOLD "IT WAS A NORMAL FUNCTION OF A CVT" NOT KNOWING ANY BETTER AS IT WAS MY FIRST CVT TRANSMISSION I KEPT DRIVING. NOW IM TOLD MY A CVT SPECIALIST THAT THAT THUD I WAS FEELING IS THE BEGINING OF MY TRANSMISSION BRAKING AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I CANNOT SEE HOW NISSAN EXPECTS SOMEONE TO PAY FOR A PRODUCT THAT SO MANY OF ITS VEHICLES HAVE MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLANING OF THE SAME ISSUES. IT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED.

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE IT STARTS OVER REVVING WHEN CHANGING SPEEDS ON LOCAL ROADS. I ALSO HAD A FEW INSTANCES WHERE THE VEHICLE WOULD RANDOMLY NOT GO OVER 40 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY (POSSIBLY THE VEHICLE IS GOING INTO SOME KIND OF FAIL SAFE MODE) AND WOULD REV HEAVILY. I REACHED OUT TO NISSAN AND THEY ADVISED IT SOUNDS LIKE A CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, WHICH IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH A LOT OF THE NISSAN VEHICLES. HOWEVER, THEY HAVE NOT CREATED A RECALL FOR THE 2013 NISSAN SENTRA AND ADVISED THEY DO NOT PLAN TO DO SO. *DT *JS*JB

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY DAUGHTER IN THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, WHEN I TURNED A CORNER THE SEAT BELT UNBOLTED FROM THE FLOOR. *DT*JB

CVT TRANSMISSION WENT OUT ON VEHICLE WHILE ON THE ROAD. I ONLY HAD 76,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME.

WE BOUGHT OUR 2013 NISSAN SENTRA IN 2015 FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE PRICE TAG WAS SOMEWHERE AROUND 20-22 GRAND. I WAS EXPECTING THAT WE WOULD BE KEEPING THIS CAR FOR 10+ YEARS. UNFORTUNATELY, NISSAN FAILED TO TELL US ABOUT THE CARS FAILING TRANSMISSION WHEN THEY SOLD US THE CAR. WHILE DRIVING ON A DAILY BASIS, THE CAR WOULD ODDLY PULL. BUT WHEN TEST DRIVING THE CAR WE WERE ASSURED THAT THIS WAS NORMAL AND CAUSED BY THE CVT TRANSMISSION. 3 1/2 YEARS LATER WHILE I WAS RUNNING A NORMAL ERRAND IN TOWN, THE CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE. I TRIED PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC ON A HEAVILY TRAFFICKED ROAD AND HAD TO SWERVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BECAUSE I WAS PRESSING ON THE GAS AND IT WAS NOT ACCELERATING. I MANAGED TO GET THE CAR TO MOVE AGAIN, BUT I SLOWLY DROVE ON BACKROADS TO GET THE CAR TO THE NISSAN IN OUR TOWN. ONCE THERE, THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST TO SEE WHAT IS WRONG AND GUESS WHAT? THE TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED. NOW TELL ME, WHY DOES A 5 1/2 YEAR OLD CAR ALREADY HAVE TRANSMISSION FAILURE?? WE HAVE ONLY OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 3 1/2 YEARS!! AND OUR WARRANTY RAN OUT AT 100,000 MILES. WE ARE AT 113,000. I BELIEVE THIS CAR HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES FROM THE FIRST DAY THAT WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE.I THINK THESE CARS ARE NOT RELIABLE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED! THIS CAR LOOKS PERFECT AND IS NOW WORTHLESS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE FILLED UP THE FUEL TANK, BUT IT BECAME LOW AGAIN HALFWAY INTO HER TRIP. THE FUEL GAUGE NEEDLE WENT DOWN TO EMPTY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND ATTEMPTED TO SERVICE THE VEHICLE, BUT COULD NOT FINISH CORRECTLY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.

IVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY 2013 SENTRA SR SPUTTERING RANDOMLY AND OUT OF NOWHERE SHAKES AND COMPLETLY SHUTS OFF NO MATTER THE SPEED IM DOING. WHICH HAS ME CONCERNED AS THIS IS BECOMING A BIG SAFETY ISSUE NOW THRU OUT THE YEARS ITS GOTTEN PROGGRESIVLY WORSE WITHOUT ANY DEALERSHIP BEING ABLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE CAUSE THE CAR SHOWS NO WARNING LIGHTS OR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I'M STOPPED AND MOVING HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND SOMETIMES THE CAR WONT ACCELERATE PAST 3 RPM'S.

I HAVE HAD TO HAVE MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED 1 TIME ALREADY FOR IT CRACKING WITHOUT BEING IN AN ACCIDENT. IT WOULD ACCELERATE RANDOMLY AND WOULDN'T ACCELERATE WHEN I PUSHED ON THE GAS. I'M NOW HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND ALMOST GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT ON AN EXPRESSWAY BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AND WHEN I GOT OFF THE MAIN ROAD IT ACCELERATED WITHOUT ME EVEN TOUCHING THE GAS PEDDLE.

STARTING AROUND 75,000 MILES, MY NISSAN SENTRA STARTED STUTTERING, STALLING, AND LOSING POWER BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. MY 2013 NISSAN SENTRA'S TRANSMISSION FAILED ON 4/11/2019 AT 83,975 MILES (1 YEAR AND 23K MILES OVER THE WARRANTY). OVER THE PAST YEAR, THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN A PUBLIC AND PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD. I WAS NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR, OR ON HIGHWAYS IN FEAR OF WHAT HAPPENED ON 4/11 WOULD HAPPEN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. THE FACT THAT SOMETHING SO IMPORTANT AND EXPENSIVE WOULD FAIL ON A CAR SO FAST PROVES THAT THIS PART OF THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED.

WHEN I PRESS THE PEDAL GAS THE CAR DOESNT WORK WELL .I CANT DRIVE HIGHER THAN 40 MILES BECAUSE THE TRANSMITION DOESNT RUNNING WELL AND SOMETIME I HAVE TO PULL OVER THE CAR CAUSE IT DOESNT EVEN RUN 20 MILE .EACHE STOPS SIGNAL I DO IS EVEN WORST.ALL THIS NOTES ARE IN THE CITY STREETS I CANT DRIVE ON A HIGHWAY BECAUSE IT DOESNT RUN OVER 40 MILES

VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY STOPS PULLING. I WAS ON A US STATE HIGHWAY WITH MANY VEHICLES BEHIND ME. WITHIN 18 MILES THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED OPERATING 3 TIMES RESULTING IN ME WORKING TO GET MY CAR OUT OF THE WAY OF OTHER TRAFFIC. VEHICLE HAS LOW MILEAGE.

I ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR A YEAR NOW I HAVE 43 THOUSAND MILES AND MY TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT. I'VE BEEN DOING RESEARCH AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE . I SHOULDN'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS

CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED AT 90K MILES. GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALS EXORBITANT NUMBER OF NISSANS WITH CVT TRANNYS HAVE FAILED MULTIPLE TIMES. NISSAN CONTINUES TO USE CVT'S. WHY???? CAR REVS HIGH WHEN STARTED - THE LENGTH OF TIME STEADILY INCREASES. RPM'S SHOW RAPID AND SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATION. FEARFUL TO DRIVE IT MORE THAN THE FEW MILES IT MUST BE DRIVEN BACK AND FORTH TO WORK AND TO RUN ERRANDS.

AT 70,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY QUIT WORKING. MY DAUGHTER WAS BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY AND BECAME STUCK IN THE ROAD. CAR WOULD NOT GO FORWARD OR REVERSE. PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDDLE HAD NO EFFECT. EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN COUNTLESS POSTS ONLINE. CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT COST QUOTED AT 4000 DOLLARS. ALMOST THE VALUE OF THE CAR.

'TAKATA RECALL' WHEN I RECENTLY GOT THIS CAR, AT FIRST I KNEW SOMETHING WAS OFF BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE LIKE A NORMAL CAR AND IT WOULDN'T GO PASS BY 30MPH ON THE FREEWAY. I LET A COUPLE OF DAYS PASSED BY UNTIL THE LAST DAY BEFORE I TOLD THE DEALER , I WAS AN ENTIRE DAY TURNING MY CAR ON AND OFF THINKING THAT IT WILL STOP GLITCHING BUT I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND I WAS CAUSING A LOT OF TRAFFIC DUE TO IT'S MALFUNCTION. AFTER THAT, THEY TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO GET ANOTHER TRANSMISSION OR SYSTEM CALLED THE CVT TRANSMISSON, THEY ACTUALLY DID CHANGE THE TRANSMISSON AND AFTER THAT IT WAS WORKING WELL BUT WASN'T SATISFIED WITH IT, IT STARTED LOOSING POWER AND THERE'S TIMES WHEN IT DOESN'T WANT TO ACCELERATE AND I HAVE TO PUSH MY FOOT ALL THE WAY IN WHICH IS SCARY BECAUSE THERE'S TIMES WHERE IT JUST THROWS ME OFF SINCE I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN IT WANTS TO ACCELERATE LIKE A NORMAL CAR. OVERALL, THEY CHANGED THE CVT TRANSMISSON AND I FELT THAT IT GOT WORST AND NOW I JUST DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THIS CAR , I DON'T FEEL SAFE WITH IT BUT THE SAD PART IS THAT I'M STILL PAYING FOR THE CAR.

THE CAR BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE, WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR RPMS INCREASED THE CAR DID NOT MOVE. TRAFFIC RAPIDLY APPROACHING BEHIND ME.DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME OF TRANSMISSION ISSUE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. NO WARNING SIGN, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FORCED TO PULL OVER AT NIGHT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE GRADUAL BREAKING LIGHT WAS ON. I NOTICED MY BACK PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT HAD MOISTER IN IT. SO I TOOK IT PO UR AND DUMPED ABOUT 5 OZ. OF WATER OUT OF IT. I BOUGHT A NEW TAILLIGHT. IT SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM NOW MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING FROM 1ST TO SECOND GEAR. THE RPMS JUMP FROM 2000 TO 3000 AS IT SHIFTS AND STEADY OUT IT'S BEEN GETTING WORSE AS THE DAYS GO BY. I'M FINDING SIMILAR ISSUES ONLINE BUT NO SOLUTION OTHER THAN TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. IT HAS 83000 MILES ON IT. BECAUSE OF THE TAILLIGHT ISSUE AND IT NOT ACCELERATING I FEEL LIKE THERES SOME KIND OF WIRING ISSUE TO THE TRANSMISSION. IT'S NOT THROWING ANY CODES AND THE DEALER SAYS NOTHING'S WRONG WITH IT.

THE CVT TRANSMISSION SLIPS AT VARIOUS RPMS AND SPEEDS. TRAVELING DOWN A HILL IN THE CITY WITH A STEEP GRADE THE TRANSMISSION WILL DOWN SHIFT AND THROW THE RPMS UP TO 5K WHERE YOU CAN BARELY STOP IT. IT SLIPS TO WHERE BASICALLY IT HAS NO POWER TO THE WHEELS WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH AT 3K RPMS. IT IS LIKE YOU THREW IT INTO NEUTRAL. THERE IS NO POWER TO THE WHEELS BUT ENGINE SPEED SHOOTS TO 6K RPMS AND CAR SPEED DECREASES RAPIDLY. THIS HAPPENS DAILY. SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND BEEN TOLD IT IS THE WAY THE CVT TRANSMISSION OPERATES. THAT IS A BUNCH OF MESS NO TRANSMISSION IS MEANT TO SLIP OUT OF GEAR. MY PERSONAL MECHANIC SAYS HE REPLACES 3-5 A WEEK OF THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS WITH AS LITTLE AS 40-50K MILES ON THEM. THESE THINGS ARE A DEATH TRAP. MY CAR HAS 107K ON IT AND I'VE BEEN COMPLAINING TO THE NISSAN DEALER SINCE 20K. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL BEFORE THERE ARE SERIOUS INJURIES FROM THE LOSS OF POWER OF SURGING. I HAVE A 3 MONTH OLD AND THIS IS MY ONLY CAR TO GET TO WORK. DEALER WANTS 4.5K AND MECHANIC WANTS 3.8K. I'M STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THE THING FOR ANOTHER YEAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BUSAM NISSAN (1501, 3907, E KEMPER RD, CINCINNATI, OH 45246) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT) FAILED TO CHANGE GEARS. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE WAS EXTREMELY SLOW TO ACCELERATE. CREST NISSAN (6600 TX-121, FRISCO, TX 75034, 1-855-878-7690) DIAGNOSED THAT THE CVT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT, DUE TO THE TITLE BEING SALVAGED, THE CONTACT WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE PART. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,200.

CAR DOES NOT SHIFT CORRECTLY, LOOSES SPEED ENGINE REVS HIGH.

2013 NISSAN SENTRA WAS RUNNING PERFECTLY FINE, AND OUT OF THE BLUE, MY ENGINE BASICALLY FAILED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, COMPLETELY. THANKFULLY, NO CARS WERE NEAR AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE. THANKFULLY IT WASN'T ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHERE A MAJOR ACCIDENT COULD HAVE OCCURRED. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TESTED IT AND IT IS INDEED A CVT FAILURE. IT NEEDS A BRAND NEW CVT TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR HAS 44,000 MILES ON IT, AND IS JUST OVER 5 YEARS OLD. IT IS DANGEROUS TO MYSELF AND OTHERS TO HAVE THIS CAR ON THE ROAD WITH THESE ENGINES. THERE ARE SO MANY CASES OF 2013 CVT FAILING, BUT YET NO RECALL. NISSAN NEEDS TO STEP THEIR GAME UP LIKE THEY HAVE ON PREVIOUS YEARS THAT INCLUDED CVT AND EXTEND THEIR WARRANTY. THERE IS NO REASON A PERFECT GOOD CAR SHOULD HAVE THIS PROBLEM ALREADY. THIS CAR GOES FROM POINT A TO POINT B, AS IT IS BASICALLY A WORK CAR. PLEASE, PLEASE CONSIDER THIS, AS WELL AS ALL THE OTHERS. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE AND UNREALISTIC, AND NISSAN IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT.

WHILE TRAVELING ON I-95 IN MIAMI AT 55 MPH, MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING AND WOULDN'T PASS 20 MPH. I PUSHED DOWN ON THE GAS PEDDLE AND NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN. I WAS EXTREMELY LUCKY TO BE ON THE MIDDLE LANE AND QUICKLY SHIFTED OVER TO THE FAR RIGHT ON THE EMERGENCY LANE AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. I TURNED IT BACK IN AND IT WORKED FINE. I DIDN'T USE THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS, AND THEN WHEN I TRIED AGAIN, IT WAS GIVING THE SAME ISSUE WHERE THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AND WAS MAKING A WEIRD NOISE WHICH I NEVER EXPIERNED BEFORE. I TOOK TO MY TRUSTED MECHANIC AND HE ADVISED IT WAS A CVT ISSUE. I HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO A CERTIFIED NISSAN DEALERSHIP AS NISSAN AGREED TO CONSIDER POSSIBLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. UPON COMPLETION IT WAS CONFIRMED IT WAS A CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND IT WOULD COST ABOUT $5,000 TO REPAIR WITH LABOR COSTS. NISSAN HAS TO GIVEN ME BACK MY CAR AND IT'S NOW THE 20TH OF FEBRUARY. MY CAR HAS 99,450 MILES, AND HAS BEEN IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH MY MAINTENANCE. IT'S SCARY AND UNFORTUNATE THAT WE HAVE BEEN SOLD A DEFECTIVE CAR AND NISSAN WON'T ADMIT TO IT. THERE'S A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OPEN AND STILL IN COURT. I GOT AN ATTORNEY INVOLVED WHO HAS TAKEN UP MY CASE FOR FURTHER ACTION AGAINST NISSAN. CONSUMER SHOULD BE ADVISED TO STOP DRIVING THIS CAR ASAP! I AM NOW LOOKING TO GET A NEW CAR AS I DON'T FEEL SAFE ANYMORE DRIVING THIS AND I NEED A RELIABLE AND SAFE VEHICLE FOR WORK.
