2017 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

WHEN IN A STATIONARY POSITION AND OFF THE CAR'S AUTOMATIC START WILL NOT START THE CAR EVEN WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKE PETAL AND PRESSING THE AUTOMATIC START BUTTON. THE CAR WILL CYCLE THROUGH THE ELECTRONIC WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD TO SAY - PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND PRESS THE START BUTTON. THE CAR WILL NOT START. INSTEAD IT WILL CYCLE THROUGH THE RADIO COMING ON AND THE DASH ILLUMINATING AND THEN TO OFF. THE CAR WILL NOT START. IT FIRST OCCURRED ON 11/26/19, ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. FIRST OCCASION WAS ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE OUR HOME GARAGE. SECOND OCCASION WAS DIRECTLY FOLLOWING OCCASION 1 AS WE ATTEMPTED TO LEAVE THE GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT. THE THIRD WAS ON 12/3/19, AS WE ATTEMPTED TO LEAVE A METRO PARKING GARAGE. THE VEHICLE WILL TAKE 3-4 ATTEMPTS AND FULL CYCLES (5 MINUTES) TO START THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN SENTRA. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT COME A COMPLETE STOP. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE DEFECT WAS RELATED TO THE CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE AND TIRE PRESSURE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SCENE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO O'NEIL NISSAN (849 STREET RD, WARMINSTER, PA 18974, (215) 674-9300). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I CAN BE DRIVING AND MAINTAINING THE SPEED LIMIT WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY SPEED WILL DROP ALMOST LIKE I AM HITTING THE BRAKES. THIS HAS HAPPENED DURING CITY DRIVING AND WHILE ON THE HIGH WAY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 8 MONTHS NOW.

WHEN AT A STANDSTILL OR MOVING AT LOW SPEED, WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IF FULLY DEPRESSED IT INTERMITTENTLY DOES NOT STOP ACCELERATING DESPITE THE REMOVAL OF PRESSURE ON SAID ACCELERATOR. THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE UNCONTROLLABLY. ONLY BY CONSTANTLY ENGAGING THE ACCELERATOR IN A VIOLENT MANNER DOES THE VEHICLE FINALLY CEASE ACCELERATING. THIS CONDITION HAS CAUSED SOME EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS INCLUDING HAVING TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL WHILE BRAKING AND PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY UNTIL THE ACCELERATOR DISENGAGED AND THE ENGINE CEASED RACING AT THE VERY HIGHEST RPM.

TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, SOME TOMES IT DOES NOT CHANGE GEAR. SOME TIMES IN STATIONARY THE GEAR WILL NOT CHANGE, SOMETIME WILE IN MOTION THE CAR WIL SLOW DOWN. THIS HAPPENS , IN THE CITY AND ON THE FREEWAY

MY 2017 NISSAN SENTRA WITH 37,000 MILES WILL NOT START. I HAVE THE KEYLESS IGNITION AND WHEN I TRY TO START THE CAR I KEEP GETTING A MESSAGE TO PRESS THE BRAKES. I HAVE THE BRAKE PEDDLE PRESSED BUT CAR DOES NOT REGISTER THAT. I WORRY THAT THE BRAKES ARE GOING TO FAIL WHILE DRIVING. IF I KEEP PRESSING THE PEDDLE EVENTUALLY THE CAR WILL START. THIS HAS BEEN ON-GOING FOR THE PAST 3-4 WEEKS.

TAKATA RECALL . I HAVE A COMPLAINT ON THE CVT TRANSMISSION. MY TRANSMISSION WAS SERVICED BACK IN OCTOBER, NOT EVEN A YEAR AGO AND IT BEGIN ACTING UP AGAIN BACK IN AUGUST WHILE DRIVING AND I'VE SEEN THE LAWSUITS AND RECALLS ON IT. AND NISSAN WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO STAY UNDER THE WARRANTY OR EXTEND IT. SO I DONT MIND PULLING IN THE LEMON LAW FIRM.

TAMARA RECALL: MY CAR HAS THE PUSH BUTTON START AND I JUST RECENTLY PURCHASED IT WITH 50,000 MILES ON IT. IT USED TO ONLY HAPPEN EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE AND AS OF YESTERDAY IT HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I TRY TO TURN ON MY CAR. I PUSH THE BRAKE AND PUSH THE BUTTON AND EVERYTHING WILL LIGHT UP BUT THE CAR WON'T TURN ON. THEN THE PUSH BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AND PUSH START BUTTON COMES ON AND I TRY IT AGAIN BUT THIS TIME THE BRAKE IS REALLY HARD TO PUSH DOWN AND DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO PUSH IT IN FAR ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO ACTUALLY START IT. AFTER CONTINUOUSLY PUSHING THE BRAKE AND THIS BUTTON AND DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY AND JIGGLING THE BRAKE FOR LIKE 10 MINUTES I MIGHT FINALLY GET IT TO COME ON IF I'M LUCKY. I'VE SEEN ONLINE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE BUT NOTHING TELLS ME HOW I CAN GO ABOUT FIXING IT.
