    •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 of this car, i bought it used, i was told by dealership and informed on car-fax that it was never in an accident. So far the problem has not been able to be reproduced, it is an defect/malfunction/issue, that happens unexpectedly when it wants to. Warning lamps activated: Front crash warning light which will not go off and i can find no way to reset. I asked dealer to reset it but instead they insisted i pay 150 dollars for a diagnostic i could not afford.

    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.

The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. VIN tool confirms parts not available. The failure mileage was approximately 59,000. The consumer was informed by a Nissan representative to get the recalls done first and then they would be able to start the claims for repairs to the vehicle, so an appointment was made and recall was performed. When the consumer contacted Nissan to inform them of recall repairs, they stated there was no way they could investigate to see if the accident had anything to do with issues from the recall.

    Transmission slipping and slowing on hills on freeway to the point you can’t get out of the way of other vehicles. Very unsafe. Already took to dealership on 6/17/22 and they reprogrammed the transmission, but here I am again with same issue going on less than a month later.
