I PURCHASED A USED 2016 NISSAN SENTRA SV IN 2019 AT 48K MILES - IT IS CURRENTLY AT 58K MILES, NEARLY TO THE POWERTRAIN EXPIRATION AT 60K MILES. AFTER 4 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP I BEGAN EXPERIENCING SEVERE CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUES - I WOULD BE DRIVING UP THE HIGHWAY AND SUDDENLY MY TRANSMISSION WOULD LOSE COMPLETE POWER CAUSING NEAR-ACCIDENT CONDITIONS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE CAR WOULD BE IN MOTION, SOMETIMES IN CRUISE CONTROL WHILE MOVING FORWARD. THE CAR JOLTS BACK AND FORTH VIOLENTLY. WHEN IT LOSES POWER IT CANNOT ACCELERATE AND TYPICALLY GETS STUCK AT 45 MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 15-20 TIMES IN THE DURATION OF MY OWNERSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE SO FAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE SERVICE CENTER SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE IT REPAIRED, ONLY TO HAVE THEM STATE THAT THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THEIR COMPUTERS CANNOT SOURCE A CODE. I WAS ABLE TO CAPTURE THIS ISSUE ON VIDEO TO HELP PROVE THAT THIS ISSUE IS HAPPENING. I SENT THE VIDEO TO A TECHNICIAN WHO THEN CONFIRMED "YES, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR TRANSMISSION" ONLY TO HAVE THEM STATE AT THE END OF ANOTHER DAY-LONG VISIT TO THE SERVICE CENTER THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE.

UNABLE TO START VEHICLE DUE TO FAULTY BREAK SWITCH. I TRIED TO PUSH THE BREAK AND START THE CAR. IT DOESNT START.
