2015 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

I HAVE GONE THRU 3 TRANSMISSIONS IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS. 1ST WENT OUT AT 33K, 2ND WENT OUT AT 86K, AND THE LAST AT 148K. NISSAN CHARGED ME 800.00 FOR THE 2ND. NISSAN STATES I AM LIABLE FOR ALL CHARGES NOW. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I'VE HAD THE WORK DONE HAS REPLACED OVER 1000 OF THESE TRANNYS. WHY? THEY ARE DEFECTIVE OR AT LEAST AN INFERIOR PRODUCT. A SEARCH OF YOUR SITE HAS GARNERED OVER 100 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS PART IN MY YEAR AND MODEL ALONE. NISSAN STATED TO ME THAT IF I REPLACE IT THE WARRANTY WILL BE 12 MO OR 12K MILES. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THIS PART IS PROPRIETARY TO THE VEHICLE, THERE IS NO OTHER REPLACEMENT PART! SALVAGE YARDS IN LAS VEGAS WILL NOT EVEN CARRY THEM. TO PUT A DIFFERENT TRANNY IN WOULD REQUIRE AN ENGINE AND ECM CHANGE. I ASKED ONE YARD WHAT THEY DO IF THEY GOT A VEHICLE WITH THIS TRANNY AND THEY STATED THAT THEY REMOVE THE TRANNY AND PART THE CAR OUT. IS THIS WHAT I'M FORCED TO DO? THE REALITY OF THIS PART FAILING AT SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY AND GETTING RUN OVER BY A SEMI TRUCK IS VERY REAL WITH DIRE CONSEQUENCES. I IMPLORE YOU TO LAUNCH AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE QUALITY OF THIS PART AND NISSANS BUSINESS PRACTICES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL BOOMING NOISE AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND STALLED. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO WEST PALM BEACH NISSAN (3870 W BLUE HERON BLVD, RIVIERA BEACH, FL 33404) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CV JOINT NEEDED TO BE REBUILT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

NO POWER, NO SHIFTING GEARS, PULSATING, HOT SMELL, RPM GOES DOWN WHEN VEHICLE IS ACCELERATED, LOSS OF SPEED WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND ROADWAYS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME THE CAR WILL MAINTAIN A CERTAIN SPEED BUT THE RPMS WILL RAISE AND LOWER AND YOU CAN HEAR THE ENGINE REV UP AS IF IT IS ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE GEARS.

WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION AND AT ANY SPEED, WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY AND WITHOUT WARNING LOSE ACCELERATION FOR AN UNKNOWN AMOUNT OF TIME EVEN THOUGH THE GAS PEDAL IS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON ANY ROADS.
