2016 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE/HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY OVER 60 MPH THE CAR MAKES A LOUD NOISE AND PULLS HARD TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. THE CAR IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD 47,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS MADE THIS NOISE AND DONE IT SINCE IT WAS BOUGHT AND IS GETTING WORSE. IT PULLED THE CAR OFF THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 59. THE BRAKES SQUEAL WHEN MASHED EVEN THOUGH BRAKE PADS,ROTORS ARE GOOD AS WELL AS BRAKE FLUID. IT WILL MAKE A POPPING NOISE WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT IT INTO GEAR AS WELL. THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN WRECKED. THE CAR JOLTS TO THE RIGHT AND LEFT WHILE DRIVING AND IS DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL EVEN AFTER BRAND NEW TIRES WERE PUT ON, BALANCED, ROTATED AND ALIGNED.

I PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2016 WITH ONLY 10 MILES ON IT FROM ME DRIVING OFF WITH IT. I'VE REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE. IVE HAD MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED WHICH THEY DIDN'T WANT TO REPLACE DUE TO LOW NOISES IT MADE IF I DROVE OVER 10 MPH. THEY REFUSED TO FIX MY CAR FOR THREE MONTHS BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULDN'T CUT ON FROM THE NOISES IT MADE. NOW MY CAR CRANKS BUT DOESN'T START. ALL MAINTENANCE IS UP TO DATE AND MY CAR HAS 55,000 EVEN TODAY! THE BATTERY IS NOW AND CHARGED. ALL CABLES ARE TIGHT. I HAVE TO GET IT TOWED TO NISSAN TO HAVE IT INSPECTED.

ON 11/02/17 BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THE BRAKES AND SERVICE SAID THEY COULDN'T GET IT TO SQUEAK WHILE IT WAS AT THE SHOP. WAS IN FOR 1 DAY FOR SERVICE. NOW ITS 1/16/18 BROUGHT THE CAR BACK IN AGAIN AND SERVICE CAN HEAR GRIND/SQUEAK SOUND MILEAGE UNDER 12,000 MILES AND SHOP WANTS TO SHAVE THE ROTORS ON MY CAR AND REPLACE BRAKE PADS. I DO NOT WANT MY ROTORS SHAVED AS THAT MAKES IT ONE LESS TIME I CAN DO THAT IN THE FUTURE. SO SERVICE REPLACES WITH NEW NISSAN ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS. CAR IN SHOP FOR 10 DAYS NOW ITS 8/16/18 CAR HAS LESS THEN 5,000 MILES ON NISSAN FACTORY PARTS AND BRAKES ARE MAKING NOISE AGAIN. MASON IN SERVICE WANTS TO SHAVE MY ROTORS AND REPLACE BRAKE PADS BUT NISSAN DOES NOT WANT TO COVER THEM UNDER WARRANTY. I TELL THEM ITS OK TO SHAVE ROTORS THIS TIME BUT FEEL NISSAN SHOULD HAVE BETTER PARTS. WITH THE FEW MILES THAT ARE ON THE BRAKES AND ROTORS. CAR HAS LESS THEN 16,000 MILES ON IT. CAR IN SHOP FOR ANOTHER DAY. NISSAN HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE BRAKE PADS THEY ARE USING MASON THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID NISSAN HAS A BULLETIN ABOUT THE NOISE THERE BRAKES MAKE. WELL I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO KNOW THAT WHEN I WAS PURCHING THIS VECHILE. AS OF WRITING THIS LETTER THE BRAKES STARTED TO SQUEAK AGAIN. I AM TIRED OF DRIVING THIS CAR IN PUBLIC AND IT SOUNDING LIKE A OLD COP CAR OR TAXI CAB. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR FOR A REASON! SO IN CLOSING THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 12 DAYS SO FAR, HAS HAD NEW BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED TWICE AND THE CAR HAS LESS THEN 17,000 MILES ON IT NOW. I GUESS I EXPECTED TO MUCH WHEN I PURCHASED A CAR FOR $25,000 THAT IT WOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS AND NISSAN HAS PROVED ME WRONG. WHAT I WOULD LIKE NISSAN TO DO IS PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE BACK FROM ME, WITH A CREDIT SO I CAN PURCHASE A NEW NISSAN WITH NO PROBLEMS.

I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT GOING 55+ MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND GOT HIT BY A BIG RIG AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. PRIOR TO THIS I HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHEN I WAS TOLD THE AIRBAGS WERE RECALLED SO THEY FIXED THEM. I WAS HIT BY A BIG RIG WHICH WRECKED MY WHOLE CAR MAKING IT NOT DRIVEABLE THE WINDOWS WERE ALL SHATTERED AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS WENT OFF. *DT UPDATED 10/17/18*JB

THE TRANSMISSION SHUTTERS AND FAILS TO ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC. IT STOPPED PULLING ON A BRIDGE ON THE INTERSTATE THIS MORNING ON A STEP INCLINE. THE RPM S BOUNCE BACK AND FORTH.

2016 NISSAN SENTRA SR (CURRENT MILEAGE EST. 60,000 MILES) THE IGNITION ISSUE ON MY VEHICLE HAS STARTED AROUND 20,000 MILES. NORMALLY, THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY DURING MY COMMUTE TO AND FROM WORK (WHICH IS 60 MILES A DAY), THE SLIP TRACTION LIGHT STAYS ON FOR DAYS REGARDLESS OF WEATHER CONDITIONS. DURING THIS TIME THE ACCELERATION OF MY VEHICLE IS STALLING. A JERKING MOTION AS I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR. A REPAIR WAS INITIATED BUT NO TO AVAIL, THE ACCELERATION IS STILL STALLING. THERE IS A FAULT IN THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY SYSTEM. WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY, THE BRAKE SWITCH ACTS UP AND THE CAR CAN'T TURN ON. THE BRAKE GETS STIFF AND I'M UNABLE TO TURN ON THE VEHICLE FOR 10 -30 MINUTES. PUSHING THE IGNITION BUTTON ALONE, THE CAR WILL LIGHT UP AND THE RADIO WILL TURN ON THEREFORE THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH THE BATTERY. THE BRAKE SWITCH HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE IN TWO CONSECUTIVE MONTHS. CURRENTLY THIS ISSUE IS OCCURRING WITH A NEW BRAKE SWITCH IN MY VEHICLE. ALSO, IF MY CAR IS PARKED AFTER AN HOUR OR SO , I HAVE DIFFICULTY TURNING ON THE CAR, BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD AND I WAIT ONCE AGAIN UNTIL THE PEDAL UNLOCKS. AT THE GAS STATION, I TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE TO FILL UP MY TANK, FIVE MINUTES LATER I'M UNABLE TO TURN MY VEHICLE ON, AGAIN BRAKE PEDAL IS HARD. ALL OIL CHANGES AND RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE.

I WAS SMASHED IN BETWEEN TWO CARS AT A RED LIGHT. MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TOTALED.
