2013 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

MY 2013 SENTRA IT BEGAN TO JERK AND LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR REVS UP TO 5000RPMS WENT BACK DOWN TO BETWEEN 3000 AND 4000RPMS. I DROVE TO THE NEAREST AUTO SHOP AAMCO. THE MECHANIC SAID TO SEE IF IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. HE SAID THERE WERE KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT. WE DROVE HOME AND I CALLED NISSAN (8883880318) AND SPOKE TO A REPRESENTATIVE. HE ASKED FOR THE VIN AND TOLD ME THERE WAS A "CAMPAIGN" ON THIS CAR. I ASKED HIM WAS A CAMPAIGN AND A RECALL THE SAME THING, HE SAID THEY WERE THE SAME, DIFFERENT WORDS.. HE TOLD ME THE CVT NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. HE GAVE ME A DEALERSHIP. I CALLED, MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR 9:00AM THIS MORNING. WE TOOK THE CAR IN, WAS TOLD THE CAR HAD BEEN REPROGRAMMED. WE DROVE AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP, GOT ABOUT ONE BLOCK AND THE CAR BEGAN TO JERK AND LOSE POWER LIKE BEFORE. WE TURNED AROUND AND WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I TOLD THE REPRESENTATIVE THE CAR WAS STILL JERKING AND LOSING POWER. SHE SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $99.00 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. I DID NOT PAY FOR THE TEST BECAUSE THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE ON THE PHONE TOLD ME THE REPAIR WOULD BE AT NO CHARGE. WHEN WE GOT HOME, I CALLED NISSAN, AGAIN. I WAS TOLD I COULD NOT TALK TO THE REPRESENTATIVE I TALKED TO YESTERDAY. THIS TIME, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO WARRANTY LEFT BECAUSE I HAD 82,000 MILES ON THE CAR. HE TOLD ME THE WARRANTY STOPPED AT 60,000 MILES. I TOLD HIM THE REPRESENTATIVE I SPOKE TO YESTERDAY TOLD ME IT WAS COVERED AND I HAD LOOKED ONLINE AND NISSAN HAD ADDED TO THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES. HE SAID THAT IS NOT FOR MY CAR AND I COULD JOIN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. I TOLD HIM I DON'T WANT TO JOIN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, I NEED MY CAR REPAIRED. PLEASE HOLD NISSAN ACCOUNTABLE TO FIX THESE UNSAFE CARS, BECAUSE, NISSAN KNOWS THERE IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH THE CVT'S. THIS IS UNFAIR.

I AM REQUESTING AN INVESTIGATION INTO NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS AFTER SUFFERING TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 70 MILES AN HOUR WHILE ON CRUISE CONTROL ON AN INTERSTATE IN TRAFFIC. RPMS JUMPED UP BUT WAS LOSING POWER AND ENGINE SOUNDED HORRIBLE LIKE METAL ON METAL . ABLE TO GET OFF BEFORE PASSING EXIT AND LIMPED INTO NEARBY GAS STATION. TOWED TO NEAREST NISSAN DEALER AFTER BREAKDOWN AND TOLD A FEW DAYS LATER THAT SOMETHING BROKE INTERNALLY IN TRANSMISSION AND WILL NOW HAVE TO BE REPLACED AFTER 115000 MILES FOR $4000. CAR BOUGHT NEW IN 2013. RESEARCH ONLINE SHOWS AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ABOUT NISSAN'S CVT TRANSMISSIONS FOR YEARS AND NISSAN IS NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE. NISSAN OFFERED OWNERS OF PREVIOUS MODELS UP TO YEAR 2010 TO DOUBLE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY FROM 60,000 TO 120,000 TO ADDRESS PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS BUT CURRENT OWNERS ARE NOT OFFERED THIS CURRENTLY EVEN THOUGH OBVIOUS PROBLEMS REMAIN WITH THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. THERE HAS TO BE A FAULT WITH THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. COULD YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE AS NUMEROUS PEOPLE ARE IN DANGER IF FAILURE OCCURS IN TRAFFIC AND ARE SUFFERING FINANCIALLY FROM PAYING FOR REPAIRS FROM THIS PROBLEM.

CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 80,000 MILES. $3,700 ESTIMATE TO REPLACE. CAR WON'T ACCELERATE AND COULD CAUSE ACCIDENT IF DRIVEN ON HIGHWAY.

HELLO, I AM A OWNER OF A NISSAN SENTRA SR 2013 AND IT HAS 102,000 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION (CVT) HAS FAILED AND MY WIFE WAS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF A HIGHWAY AND TEMP. OF 100+ FOR 2 HOURS BECAUSE THERE WHERE ENOUGH TOW TRUCKS IN THE AREA TO COME PICK HER AND THE VEHICLE UP. THIS IS VERY UPSETTING, WE HAVE OWNED OTHER NISSAN'S IN THE PAST AND THEY HAD DOUBLE THE MILEAGE ON THEM AND THERE TRANSMISSION HAD VERY FAILED. THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS HERE AND ON THE WEB WITH REGARDS TO THIS TRANSMISSION (CVT) AND EVEN LAWSUITS. PLEASE NTSB REVIEW THESE'S COMPLAINTS AND THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME THAT SOMEONE COULD BE HUT BECAUSE THERE TRANSMISSION FAILED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND THEY COULD GET TO A SAFE AREA.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE FUEL GAUGE BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GAUGE FLUCTUATED BETWEEN FULL AND EMPTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000.

WITH ONLY 69800 MILES 2013 , TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED TO OPERATE . WONT ACCELARATE IN OCASSIONS , AND THE CAR WONT MOVE FORWARD THIS CAN CAUSE A CRASH.

BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER MAJOR FAILURE IN WHICH I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT. PEDAL WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR AND BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION!

OUR 2013 NISSAN SENTRA WITH 112K MILES, THE TRANSMISSION HAS STARTED TO SHUTTER WHEN SHIFTING ON CITY STREETS, GETS STUCK IN SECOND GEAR WHEN PULLING ONTO HIGHWAYS ON RAMPS, AND SLIPS WHEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH AND WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL. THIS VEHICLE SAVED MY WIFE'S LIFE WHILE BEING OUR ONLY TRANSPORTATION. SHE HAS SURVIVED 5 CANCERS BUT NOW WE DON'T HAVE RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION. I CAN'T GET THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE TWO RECALLS PERFORMED ON THE AIRBAGS AND ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM.

WHILE DRIVING THIS AFTERNOON ON THE HIGHWAY IN CHARLESTON, SC. MY VEHICLE WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WARNING BEGAN REVVING ERRATICALLY GONG HIGH THEN LOW. DURING WHICH TIME MY THE VEHICLE LOSS ACCELERATION WHILE STILL REVVING. IM IN THE FAST LANE!! SO, AS I PROCEED TO MOVE OVER TOWARDS THE SHOULDER IM LOSING POWER, TRYING TO ACCELERATE SO I CAN MOVE AND IT JUST REVS. AS, I MAKE IT ALMOST TOWARDS THE RIGHT LANE I LOSE ALL ACCELERATION!!
