•My 2019 Nissan Sentra is seeming to have transmission issues that must be a result of a defect given the year that the vehicle was manufactured. When inspected by FIRESTONE they explained that the vehicle was having issues shifting into 3rd gear. This can be further inspected. • I have been experiencing sudden spurts of malfunction during regular drives for the previous 2 weeks where the vehicle suddenly felt as it was at a loss of acceleration power, the final straw was when driving up on a slight incline, my vehicle suddenly stopped accelerating and proceeded to roll backwards down the hill when I desperately pressed the brakes to stop the vehicle from rolling back on to another vehicle. • This issue has not been acknowledged by my dealer, however I received a Legal Notice from Nissan CVT Litigation Settlement Administrator (NAM) regarding lawsuit against Nissan for defective transmissions equipped to 2018-2019 Nissan Sentra. •Vehicle was inspected by FIRESTONE. •I received warning lamps or indications of issues.

Automatic "Emergency" Braking System: I was driving my 2019 nissan sentra home a few weeks ago on a 2 lane street going about 35 mph, when suddenly and without warning, with no obstructions/cars in front of or in back of me luckily, my automatic emergency braking system engaged throwing me forward in my car seat even though i was wearing my seat belt and bringing the car practically immediately to a complete stop in the middle of the road and scaring the living daylights out of me! After this i could not drive the car home because i was to scared so i called for help to come get me. Ever since i have been deathly afraid to drive my car. I am lucky i was not in an accident! I have noticed this is a KNOWN and REPORTED issue across the internet with this nissan "safety" system on many of their cars as well as some lawsuits against them for similar incidents. I cannot understand why such a serious and potentially dangerous issue has been left unchecked and unresolved by nissan or anyone for that matter! This issue is a serious danger for both the driver and passengers of cars with this problem as well as other drivers on the road! I am lucky no one was behind me and my kids weren't in the car! Calling the nissan dealership i found that they want around 150 dollars just to diagnose problem! And if its any of the sensors malfunctioning/needing replacing that its around 750 dollars for one sensor! Not including whatever else the defective issue could be. I am not the original owner

The chrome foil on the interior door handle is peeling off slightly at the top. The edge of the foil is thin and sharp. While the vehicle was parked, I cut my finger while opening the door handle on the edge of the peeling foil.

Since inception, the radio emits sudden noise or blast of music when the car is off, never started, etc. In addition, the SRS airbag light will not go off. I have a key FOB and tried all alternatives to reset this. I also resetted the radio, but the radio goes on/off randomly when the car is off/parked.

Radio Turning On And Off By Itself And Car Sputtering Or Turning Off By Itself When At High Rate Of Speed

The battery light comes on every time I break...I have had the brake ignition replaced twice...the battery has been replaced but the issue continues..I have had to have the car jumped several times. The brake ignition was under recall and was replaced twice but it is still giving me issues. The radio works when it wants too.

At 65mph, I hit a tiny bump. The automatic braking system and collision detection warnings triggered and I lost all acceleration ability. I was nearly hit by a semi while coasting off the freeway in traffic. When inspected by Nissan the first time it happened (9/20/2021), the lights turned off and the computer reset. They did a warranty recall for something unrelated and told me they fixed it. On 5/13/2022 it did it again, and on 5/30 I was told it would not be covered under any warranty - all diagnosis and repair would be my own cost. A sensor should never take control of the car away from the driver. The only way to regain acceleration is to turn the car off. Wait. Turn it on. Wait. Use the menu, turn off Automatic Emergency Braking, drive.

My RPMs do not catch up with my speed. While I'm driving rpms randomly fluctuate. The transmission doesn't engage quickly enough. Now my car can barely even stop quickly enough. it gets stuck in a high gear and when I try to accelerate it jerks. I can barely stop my car I have stop so far in advance and even than it will barely stop. THIS A HUGE SAFETY RISK for myself and others. This car still fairly new should not have these issues. I also did not any warning signs or check engine light nothing. I take care of my car. This car could potentially take the lives of others it needs to be recalled immediately.

Nissian has a known issue with CVT transmissions. I've had my vechile for less then a year an I'm already being told I need a new transmission it's unacceptable. The issues my CVT has caused is extremely unsafe an dangerous to myself an my family an other drivers. My nissian would fail to accelerate almost causing me to be sideswiped on multiple!!! Occasions , these vehicles had to swerve around me because my vechile would simply not go. There's been too many close calls regarding my vechiles an the dangerous situations it's out myself an other drivers on the road in. Numerous occasions has it failed to accelerate properly , numerous occasions the vechile wasn't switching gears properly causing late reactions in the vechile an a.increased risk for accidents . Numerous occasions has my vechile decide to accelerate when I wasnt pressing the gas for it to do so , causing me to break or break hard at times I shouldn't of . Numerous occasions has my vechile literally decide it wasn't going to drive forward anymore an I would have to get out of traffic on highway an turn the vechile off an turn it back on for it to act properly.. this vechile has caused to many potential accidents .. I would hate for someone to actually get hurt for nissian to actually care about their customers. Nissian stated they basically didn't care an I would have to pay out if pocket for expenses regardless of how new or how low the milage on my vechile was..

The FCW and the AEB lights come on periodically stating that the system is malfunctioning. Took it to the dealer and they said it was the sensor for the FCW and AEB that has failed. Other vehicles around my mileage and year and model have had the same issues. Nissan needs to take care of this.

Going at a speed of 65 mph+ the transmission or what ever it seems to be cutting in and out, I have to either lay off the gas or pullover and let it sit for a bit for it to stop acting up and it'll stop for a while and it acts back up again, I haven't had the car for a year yet, there were a few time I almost got hit and swerved off the road because of it I usually have the kids with me and the last thing I need is to have something happen to them or me I asked what can be done about and pretty much was told that it was my problem I see many complaints pertaining to this issue, is it gonna take a death for something to be done, im quite disappointed about this and on top of this there is 2 recall for this type of vehicle what can be done about this?!

I was driving my vehicle to pick my kids up when I heard a strange “pop” noise. I thought maybe a rock from the road had dinged my car. When I approached a red light the passenger side car door airbag cover swung off, exposing the airbags. There have been no hits to the car nor anyone sitting in the front seat of the car.

Unbeknownst to me, the stop lamp switch recall also effects the vehicle starting. I learned that they were related after I reached out to Nissan regarding my vehicle not starting, it first happened on New Years Eve. This has now happened 2-3X a week. In addition to this issue, I’ve experienced issues with the CVT, and possibly the engine. One evening I was heading home after work, I got onto the on ramp, and attempted to accelerate to merge onto I-84. The vehicle would not accelerate beyond 45, the engine would rev extremely high, and not go any faster. I pulled onto the shoulder as best and quickly as I could. I turned the car off then back on, attempted to merge onto I-84, and had to get onto the shoulder again because I wasn’t able to go faster than 45MPH. Both times I was almost sideswiped by an 18 wheeler on the driver side, had that happened I’d have lost my life. I sat there very frustrated, and in shock. After a few minutes of having no traffic, I drove home at 45MPH. I’ve reached out to Nissan regarding the aforementioned issues, asking if they’d buy the vehicle back for what I owe on it. I received a letter from Nissan Consumer Affairs basically refusing to buy the car back. It’s exasperating owning a 2019 with 15,100 miles, and experiencing these issues. I’m by no means the type of person that feels a brand new vehicle is more reliable than an older one. I’m the type of person that likes knowing I can rely on my car. My mothers’ 2003 Outback with over 230K has been

I've noticed an issue with the radio coming on by itself when it's sitting in the garage and apparently it causes a drain on the battery. There's been several times I've gone out to the car and it doesn't start I don't know if the two are connected. I've had the battery checked the alternator checked and they've all been fine. The car is just now 2 years old I took it over from my son when I bought it for him and when I talked to him he's had the same issue.

There is a safety recall on this vehicle but there is no remedy available. I am trying to list this car through a rental platform but because of the recall, they won’t let me. I need this recall resolved or have the VIN pulled from the list of recalls.

While driving at night, going to the movies, it was a windy night, some obstruction, something small, nicked the front plastic bumper. there was no warning from the AEB. After that happen, the alert AEB light popped up and it's still on. Nothing was broken on the veh. As a matter of fact, there is no damage or nothing to the veh. Just that nick. Bought the car brand new with about 20 miles on it. This happen about two months after. Took it to the dealer where I bought it and told me they don't cover it. It would cost me $1200 dollars out of my pocket to fix it. Also, there was no other vehicles involved for that matter. So, what is the use of buying the extended warranty if when the time comes to use it, it's not covered?

When driving at speeds above 70 mph, the RPM’s start to surge. Going from 2.5 RPMs to 5 RPMs without any acceleration in speed from the driver. I have video of it when the cruise control was being used and the rpms surged and fell back. The fuel efficiency screen also shows a decrease in efficiency when the rpms go up. Have also had a loss of power when trying to pass and tried to increased speed - yet the engine surged/faltered. It happens every time I exceed 70 mph. I picked the date when I have video of this occurring. However, it happens whenever I exceed 70mph.

I have been telling Nissan in my town and they say that know about this AEB malfunction. My husband and I couldve died! We were on the interstate late at night going about 80 mpl when the AEB system activated by itself and slammed on the breaks. We started the spin out and the traction control came on and ABS shut off effectively locking up my tires and throwing me into a full spin which resulted in my crashing into the gaurd rail. I've never been more scared in my life. Add this to the list with the transmission issues.

When I try to get a quick acceleration it doesn't want to move it has trouble climbing hills like I had to put it to the floor to make him go anywhere and sometimes when I'm driving to RPMs goes up in the middle of driving without me hitting the gas I also noticed sometimes the buttons on the steering wheel don't always work I have to turn off the car and turn it back on kind of worried about the transmission I have a 2009 Nissan Altima transmission it's going bad on it before it's time so I'm hoping this car is not having the same thing
