2017 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

WHEN DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL DISENGAGE ON ITS OWN. WHEN IT DISENGAGES ON ITS OWN, THE VEHICLE SPEED DROPS AS MUCH AS 10 MPH IN 1 TO 2 SECONDS. ALSO WHEN IT DISENGAGES ON ITS OWN, THE TACHOMETER WILL BLIP UP AND DOWN BEFORE THE ENGINE RESTORES THE POWER TO THE WHEELS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SWERVES SIDE TO SIDE AS A RESULT THE CONTACT BECAME CAR SICK. THE STEERING WHEEL AS BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER AND AN ABNORMAL RATTLING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FRED ANDERSON NISSAN (9225 GLENWOOD AVE, RALEIGH, NC 27617 (919) 324-3443) WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. A MASTER TECHNICIAN TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND IGNORED THE FAILURES AND SAID THEIR WAS NO PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THEY SENT IN THE MASTER TECHNICIAN THAT DENIED ALL OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11 MILES. *JS

I WAS DRIVING ON THE BYPASS TO GET FROM CHICAGO TO INDIANA WHEN I FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS BEING SHIFTED SO AS I WAS SHIFTING TOWARDS THE LEFT SIDE INTO A DITCH, I ENDED UP ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD AND AS SOON AS A STOPPED AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED OUT ON THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDE ALONG THE WINDOWS. I LET ME CAR PPL KNOW ABOUT AND THEY TOLD ME BY MY CAR BEING LIGHT WEIGHT, I COULD BE GOING 45MPH, IF THE WIND IS STRONG THEN IT CAN POSSIBLY KNOCK ME OFF THE ROAD BUT I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING LIKE THAT. IF I WAS GOING FAST, MY CAR PROBABLY WOULD'VE FLIPPED OVER! AND WHEN I DRIVE, THE FLOOR MATS BE SLIDING UNDER THE GAS PEDALS AND STUFF AND NOW THAT THE AIR BAGS ARE DEPLOYED, MY SEAT BELTS ARE LOCKED IN THE FRONT

MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN ANOTHER CAR STRUCK THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR BUMPER. THE ENTIRE QUARTER PANEL WAS CAVED IN AND THE BUMPER ALMOST KNOCKED OFF, THE TAIL LIGHT SHATTERED AS WELL. THE ESTIMATED DAMAGE IS OVER 3500.00. THIS SEEMS HIGHLY UNSAFE AS THE CAR IS LITERALLY PLASTIC, WE HAD KNOW WARNING NOR INFORMED THE CAR WAS SO EASILY DAMAGED AND COULD POTENTIALLY TAKE A LIFE OR INJURE A PERSON SEVERELY. SINCE THE CAR WAS PARKED WHEN THE DAMAGE OCCURRED AND IT WAS DONE BY A CAR BACKING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED WE FEEL UNSAFE IN THIS CAR NOW AND WANT NISSAN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM OR TRADE OUR CAR FOR A STABLE CAR NOT A DEATH TRAP. WE LIVE IN UTAH AND PEOPLE DRIVE LIKE PSYCHOS.

I WAS DRIVING AND THE RADIO TURNED OFF, THE DASH TURNED OFF AND THE CAR TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING BUT LESS THAN A MINUTE ALL TURNED ON IT HAPPENED 4 TIMES... FROM THAT DAY ON THE RADIO WONT TURN OFF EITHER WHEN PRESSING THE TURN OFF BUTTON. AM REALLY SCARED IF SOMETHING GOES CRAZY WITH THE CAR WHILR DRIVING. SORRY MY ENGLISH IS NOT THAT GOOD.

SINCE MY SECOND OIL CHANGE (VEHICLE IS UNDER 15000 MILES CURRENTLY) THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL RANDOMLY COME ON AND THEN GO AWAY. IT WOULD NOT ALARM ME, BUT I AM HEARING THE SHIFTING OF THE POWER TRAIN NOW MORE OFTEN THAN BEFORE. A CLICKING AS IT SHIFTS UP AND DOWN. THE ENGINE IS A CVT, BUT FROM WHAT OTHER MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME, THIS IS NOT HOW IT SHOULD SOUND AND SHOULD NOT BE HOW IT PERFORMS.

TAKARA RECALL, AIRBAGS LIGHT IN MIDDLE OF DASH COMES ON SAYING NO AIRBAGS AND GOES OFF CONSTANTLY. I BELIEVE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY AIRBAGS. WHICH I'VE NOTICED A FEW DAYS AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR. WHICH WAS PURCHASED 8/23/2018.

WAS GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE ON AT 70MPH. RPMS STARTED JUMPING AND LOST POWER. TOOK TO NISSAN HAD IT CHECKED SND ITS A CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 99,798MILES ON CAR. CONTACTED NISSAN USA ABOUT IT AND WITH A 8 DAY REPLY GOT THAT ITS NOT COVERWD UNDER WARRENTY FOR A KNOWN DEFECT DUE TO THEY ONLY COVER 5/60000 MILES NOT 10YRS/120,000 MILES ON THAT VEHICLE. CAR LESS THAN 1 1/2 YRS OLD. SO WHEN I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP LIKE NISSAN USA TOLD ME TO DO SO THEY WOULD KNOW WHATS WRONG WITH IT FOR SURE. THEY TELL ME THEY WONT FIX IT. SO COST ME $130 TK HAVE IT CHECKED. AND ANOTHER $270 FOR A LOANER CAR WHILE DEALERSHIP HAD MY CAR. AND TO GET CAR FIXED IT WILL COST ME $4000. I KNOW I WOULD NEVER SUGGEST A NISSAN LEMON TO ANYONE, AND WILL NEVER BUY A NISSAN AGAIN SINCE I STILL OWE $18,000+ ON A CAR I CANT DRIVE DO TO NISSAN KNOWING THE CVT TRANSMISSION ARE MESSED UP

I BOUGHT THE CAR FOR 15K CASH THAT DAY, 45 MINUTES LATER WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY I HAVE AN OPTION FOR ECO MODE AND BOOST MODE, I WENT TO TURN ON ECO MODE AND NOTHING I HIT IT AGAIN NOTHIN, 3RD TIME THE ECO LIGHT CAME ON, THEN I GO FOR CRUZE CONTROL , 1,2,3,4 TRYS NOTHIN ON 5TH IT WORKED, IM DOING 70 ON RHE HWY AND ITS NOW 75 I WENT TO HIT ACCELERATE 1 TIME IT IT FLEW INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER PERSON , AND INSTANTLY WHEN I HIT ACCELERATE THE GAS PEDAL WAS FLOORED AND DIDNT HAVE TIME TO TURN OFF. I DO TRULY FEEL RHIS IS A LEMON CAR AND NOW 16K IN THE HOLD AND NO CAR

SUV DRIVER HIT OUR SENTRA FROM BEHIND WHILE STATIONARY; WE WERE THE LAST CAR IN THE LINE OF THE RIGHT LANE OF TRAFFIC AND WE WERE AT A DEAD STOP. WE WERE HIT VERY HARD FROM BEHIND AND WE SLAMMED INTO THE SUV IN FRONT OF US. DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY FOR EITHER DRIVER OR PASSENGER DURING THIS COLLISION. THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT STRUCTURAL DAMAGE AND THE VEHICLE WAS CONSIDERED TOTALED. MY PARTNER WHO WAS THE PASSENGER SUFFERED A CONCUSSION DUE TO THIS COLLISION, OUR CHILD WAS THANKFULLY UNHARMED IN A SEAT WITH A 5 POINT RESTRAINT. *DSY
