2017 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

WHILE STATIONARY, VEHICLE WILL NOT START WHEN TRYING TO START VEHICLE WITH PUSH START THERE ARE ALSO NO BRAKE LIGHTS WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED. PERIODICALLY THE ABS LIGHT WILL TURN ON, WHILE DRIVING ON MULTIPLE TYPES OF ROADS, FOR NO REASON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. THIS BEGAN APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR AGAIN IN 2019 AND HAS CONTINUALLY GOTTEN WORSE AND WON'T START DAILY. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME MY CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND THEREFORE WOULD BE AN OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE. AT THE TIME THE ISSUE BEGAN MY CAR WAS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER CAR OWNERS, HOW IS THIS NOT A RECALL ISSUE ALREADY???

MY TRANSMISSION IS SKIPPING WHEN DRIVING IT HAS SKIPPED AND WHEN STOP THEN I GO IT SKIPS LIKE IF JUMPS A SPEED TODAY 2/27/20 IT HAS HAPPED TWICE WHILE STOPES AND THEN GO

VEHICLE LOSES FUEL POWER WHEN MAKING TURNS OR WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY (IE: ENTERING FREEWAY ON THE ON-RAMP). RPM FLUCTUATE OR INCREASE EVEN IF ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED. PER MECHANIC, FAULTY THROTTLE POSITIONING SENSOR IS VERY COMMON WITH NISSAN.

01/25/2019 NORTH OF INDIANAPOLIS, IN TRAVELING SOUTH ON I-65, THE CAR APPEARED TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AT 70 MPH. STOPPED ON THE INSIDE LANE, SHUT OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED AND SEEMED TO BE OKAY. GOT JUST SOUTH OF INDY AND STOPPED FOR GAS, MADE IT OUT OF THE GAS STATION AND THE CAR WOULDN'T GO FOWARD BUT WOULD GO IN REVERSE. HAD TO BACK UP THE ENTRANCE RAMP TO I-65 TO AVOID BEING HIT BY SEMI'S COMING DOWN THE RAMP.CALLED NISSAN EMERGENCY ROADSIDE SERVICE AND THEY HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALER (HUBLER NISSAN) THEY TOLD US THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT I TOOK THE CAR TO M'LADY NISSAN ON 02/02/2018 TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ERRATIC SHIFTING, THEY FOUND NO PROBLEMS. ON 06/11/2019 I AGAIN TOOK THE CAR TO M'LADY NISSAN TO COMPLAIN ABOUT RPM'S JUMPING AS THE CAR ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT AND NOT WANTING TO SHIFT AT ALL GOING FOWARD ON A FLAT SURFACE ROAD. THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR A WEEK AND SAID THE FOUND NO PROBLEMS. AT THE TIME THE TRANS WENT OUT, THE CAR ONLY HAD 3,548 MILES ON IT. FOR THE SECOND COMPLAINT AFTER THE NEW TRANS WAS PUT IN THE CAR ONLY HAD 4201 MILES ON IT. WE NOW ONLY USE THE CAR FOR LOCAL TRIPS AS WE ARE AFRAID TO TAKE IT OUT ON THE ROAD AND THE TRANSMISSION CONTINUES TO ACT ERRATICALLY. NISSAN WON'T DO ANYTHING FOR US AND M'LADY NISSAN (WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR) DOESN'T OR WON;T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. THEY DID TELL US IF THE TRANS GOES OUT AGAIN WE MIGHT GET SOMETHING DONE UNDER THE LEMON LAW

PURCHASED MY CAR IN AUG. OF 2017. JAN. 2018 WAS THE FIRST OF 7 TIMES I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CASE IS AT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA IN ARBITRATION WHERE THEY WANT TO 'COMPENSATE' ME $1500 TO ESSENTIALLY SHUT MY MOUTH. THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT LAG IN THE ACCELERATION NOT ONLY FROM A STANDSTILL , BUT ALSO WHILE IN MOTION TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO HIGHER SPEEDS. THE CAR WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN 55 MPH UP A HILL. WHEN THE CAR IS ON SLIGHT INCLINES THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER IN ATTEMPTING TO CLIMB AND THE ENGINE TACHOMETER READINGS CLIMBS WELL ABOVE THE DESIGNED RPM SPECIFICATIONS. THIS HAPPENS ON LEVEL GROUND. WHEN ACCELERATED FROM 45 MPH TO 55 MPH THE TACHOMETER WOULD APPROACH 6000 RPMS PRIOR TO SWITCHING GEAR. IT DOESN'T OCCUR 100% OF THE TIME, THE VEHICLE CONSISTENTLY REACHES CLOSE TO 6000 RPMS PRIOR TO SHIFTING TO A HIGHER GEAR. AS I DRIVE I ALSO START TO NOTICE A BURNING SMELL. MY CAR IS CONSUMING EXCESSIVE FUEL COMPARED TO ANOTHER 'LOANER' 2019 NISSAN SENTRA SV WHICH HAS THE SAME EXACT SPECIFICS. MY CAR REQUIRES 3 TIMES THE FUEL TO DRIVE A SIMILAR DISTANCE. WHEN TELLING NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS THIS I WAS TOLD 'THIS IS NORMAL BECAUSE MY CAR IS OLDER AND HAS MORE MILEAGE ON IT.' NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OVER A 2 TO 3 YEAR PERIOD WOULD NOT ACCOUNT FOR SUCH A DISPARITY IN FUEL MILEAGE. NISSAN TECH SUPPORT HAS PHYSICALLY GONE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO TRY TO FIX MY VEHICLE AND I SINCE TAKEN IT IN ON FEBRUARY 10 FOR THE 7TH TIME. NISSAN CALLED BECAUSE MY ARBITRATION POC DIDN'T CALL THEM LIKE SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO 4 DAYS AGO SO NOW MY VEHICLE SITS AT THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. . MY VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ON A PUBLIC ROADWAY OR TO TRANSPORT MY 8YO. I HAVE SUBMITTED MY CASE TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE AND BBB AUTO-LINE CLAIM. I JUST WANT TO BE IN A SAFE VEHICLE. I HAVE ALL THE SERVICE DOCS BUT FILE IS TOO BIG TO ATTACH.

MY 2017 NISSAN SENTRA SR IS DOING THE SAME EXACT THING THAT OTHER SENTRA AND OTHER NISSAN S TRANSMISSION MESSING UP IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. THEY SAY MY SENTRA DON'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL

THE IDLE ON MY 2017 NISSAN SENTRA SR TURBO SURGES EVERY NOW AND THEN, AND WHEN IT IS BELOW ~55 DEGREES OUTSIDE, IT FEELS LIKE IT RUNS ROUGH WHEN IT IS IN NEUTRAL (6 SPEED MANUAL).

BOUGHT 2017 NISSAN SENTRA BRAND NEW FROM DEALERSHIP AND WAS VERY UNFAIRLY OVERCHARGED. I WAS CHARGED $23,014.53 FOR A CAR THAT WAS ONLY WORTH $16,000 AND HAS SO MANY ISSUES. GAS TANK SOMETIMES WILL STOP AT 200 MILES AND WILL NOT FILL UP, SPEEDOMETER SHOOTS UP AND DOWN WHILE DRIVING, SPEED DOES NOT STAY AT A CERTAIN SPEED AND SLOWS DOWN AUTOMATICALLY. THE ENGINE JERKS AND SPUTTERS WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS AND STREETS.

CODE P2135 KEEPS SHOWING. BOUGHT A NEW THROTTLE PEDAL POSITIONING SENSOR FROM NISSAN, HAD IT INSTALLED. AFTER 2 WEEKS THE SAME PROBLEM SHOWS BACK. THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, LOSE POWER AS DRIVING, AND SOMETIMES IDLES HIGH WHILE IDLING AND THEN CUTS OFF.

MY CAR IS HAVING THE ISSUE WHERE WHEN THE BRAKE IS PRESSED IT DOES NOT DETECT IT AND THE CAR WILL NOT START, ALSO THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS REMAIN ON THERE ARE OTHER CARS THAT NISSAN IS RECALLING FOR THE SAME ISSUE YET THIS ONE HAS YET TO GET A RECALL MAKING IT A VERY UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE ISSUE
