2015 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS UP REPEATEDLY - SYSTEM RESET THREE TIMES AT DEALER, AND PARTS REPLACED. IT IS IN SHOP FOR FIFTH TIME IN A YEAR! CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY - THINKING ABOUT TRADING IT IN BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRES.

WHILE DRIVING IT RATTLES, PICKS UP SPEED VERY SLOWLY, WHEN STEPPING ON GAS IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO SPEED UP WHICH IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE OTHER TRAFFIC CAN HIT ME FROM BEHIND. MAKES WEIRD NOISE EVERY TIME I STEP ON GAS AND IS GOING 30 MPH. HAVING DIFFICULTY WHEN TRYING TO REVERSE. I WAS AT A STOP AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE FORWARD OR REVERSE I HAD TO ASK FOR HELP TO PUSH THE CAR OUT OF THE STREET. WAS TOLD THAT IT'S THE TRANSMISSION. IT'S ONLY BEEN 6 MONTHS I BOUGHT THE CAR AND IT HAS 70,000 MILES.

MY LINKAGE WENT OUT ON FREEWAY AND I HAD TO KEEP STOPPING AND PUTTING IT IN CUZ IT WUD POP OUT OF GEAR W NO WARNING AND THEN THE TRANSMISSION WENT

WE RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE FROM NISSAN NORTH AMERICA REGARDING OCS (NON-OPERATION) OF PASSENGER AIR BAG. CONTACTED DEALER TO DISCUSS PROBLEM. WAS GIVEN THE SAME( NO ACTION ) ANSWER THAT WE GOT ON PREVIOUS VISITS. THIS SITUATION IS TOTALLY UNEXCEPTABLE. THAT AIR BAG SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO PREVENT THE PASSENGER FROM CRASHING INTO THE DASH OR WINDSHIELD. I BELIEVE THE SOLUTION IS OUT THERE. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGER.

THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW MOTOR BOLT RIPPED OUT OF THE DOOR FRAME AND NOW NO LONGER WORKS AND THE WINDOW CAN'T BE SET IN PLACE TO STAY UP. I'M WITHOUT A WINDOW ON THE DRIVERS SIDE NOW. I DON'T KNOW HOW THE BOLT RIPPED THROUGH THE FRAME. EVEN THE WIRE GOT RUINED.

CVT ISSUES WHILE DRIVING, RPM KICKS UP TO 4.5, 5 THEN DROPS TO 3 THEN 2 THEN KICKS UP TO 4.5 AGAIN WITH LOSS OF POWER -- THIS IS WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET, THE RPM WITH FEEL AS IF IT GETS STUCK PRIOR TO KICKING IN TO GEAR AFTER STOPPING THEN ACCELERATING AGAIN SUCH AS AT A RED LIGHT; IF I NEED TO SPEED UP QUICKLY FOR SOME REASON, MY CAR SIMPLY WILL NOT ACCELERATE UNLESS I MASH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOORBOARD AND IT JERKS UP RPM THEN WILL ACCELERATE.

CAR HAS BEEN MAKING TAPPING/KNOCKING/SQUEALING NOISE SINCE ABOUT 20,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED, AS WELL AS NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. (AUDIO WAS TAKEN OF NOISE). CAR WAS TAKEN TO SHOP. MECHANICS COULD NOT "REPLICATE SOUND" THAT MY CAR WAS MAKING, EVEN THOUGH I HAD SHOWN MECHANICS PROOF, AND THEY HEARD CAR MAKING NOISE AT IDLE AND WHEN CAR WAS REVVED UP. MECHANIC WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAKE CAR HOME FOR A PERIOD OF 7 DAYS. HE COULD NOT "REPLICATE SOUND" THAT MY CAR WAS MAKING. MY CAR HAD BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP (FOR THE SAME ISSUE) AT LEAST 6 TIMES BETWEEN 2016-2017. AND THE ISSUE STILL REMAINED. NOW (40,000+ MILES SINCE NOISE FIRST STARTED), I HAVE NOTICED A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN HORSEPOWER, COUPLED WITH THE SQUEALING/TAPPING/KNOCKING NOISE, THAT IS PROGRESSIVELY GETTING LOUDER. I ONCE AGAIN HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, WHO INSTRUCTED ME TO TAKE IT TO A DIFFERENT NISSAN REPAIR FACILITY AND FRONT THE $99.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE TO HAVE MY VEHICLE DIAGNOSED. I AM NOW WITHOUT A VEHICLE, AND I STILL AM IN THE DARK AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY CAR. THE SOUND THAT MY CAR MAKES OCCURS WHEN MY CAR IS MOVING, IDLING, IN GEAR, OR IN PARK. I HAVE NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP AND CONSUMER AFFAIRS OF THIS ONGOING ISSUE, AND FEEL THAT THEY JUST DO NOT WANT TO LOOK INTO THIS, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MY CAR.

AT RANDOM THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT WHILE THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN . IT HAS STAYED ON UP TO 20 MILES AND AS LESS AS AROUND 5 MILES . A PART TO FIX IT WAS ORDERED AND INSTALLED BUT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE . WE TOOK IT TO ANOTHER NISSAN DEALER AND THEY REPROGRAMMED IT BUT THAT DIDN'T FIX IT . WE ASK 2 MORE TIMES FOR THEM TO CHECK IT STATING IT'S NOT SAFE . ONE DEALER SAID STOP AND CUT CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART . THE OTHER DEALER SAID WE WEREN'T SITTING FURTHER ENOUGH BACK IN THE SEAT FOR THE SENSOR AND TO RAISE UP AND SLIDE BACK . THE LIGHT ISSUE STILL ISN'T SOLVED . WE HAVE DEALERS RECEIPTS AND WE HAVE PICTURES WITH THE CAR IN MOTION SHOWING PASSENGERS LEGS , AIRBAG LIGHT ON AND SPEEDOMETER TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS . WE HAVE MULTIPLE PICTURES WITH DIFFERENT DATES . THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN MAY 2015 .
