2013 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

MY CAR HAS A CVT TRANSMISSION AND NISSAN KNOWS THAT THESE CARS AT AROUND 70,000 MILES, THE TRANSMISSION STARTS ACTING UP. I NOTICED THAT MY CAR FELT A LITTLE DIFFERENT WHENEVER I WAS DRIVING IT BUT JUST THOUGHT IT WAS MY IMPRESSION. AS MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING IT WITH MY TWO KIDS IN THE CAR, THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE AT A STOP SIGN. IN THE HIGHWAY IT JERKS, SPEEDS AND SLOWS DOWN AT VARIOUS TIMES UNANNOUNCED WHICH MAKES IT VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I CONTACTED NISSAN ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEED A $4000 TRANSMISSION THAT THEY WOULD'VE REPLACED FOR FREE, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I HAPPEN TO BE 1800 MILES OVER WHAT THE BOOK STATES. IF I KNEW THAT MY CAR HAD A TRANSMISSION THAT IS NO GOOD THAT PUTS ME AND MY FAMILY IN DANGER I WOULD'VE BROUGHT MY CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP A LONG TIME AGO. BUT I DIDN'T KNOW AS THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS POINT.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY STOP ACCELERATING, CAUSING YOU TO HAVE TO LET OFF AND PRESS DOWN AGAIN ON THE ACCELERATOR. THIS OCCURS DURING DRIVING AND AFTER TURNS.

MY CAR HAS A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION AND AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT THAT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA WAS AWARE OF THE DEFECT OF THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND HIT IT FROM CUSTOMERS. I GOT A QUOTE FROM MY DEALERSHIP FOR $4,300.17 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. I HAD TO COME OUT OF POCKET TO FIX IT BECAISE I NEED MY CAR FOR WORK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND HAD TO BE PUSHED OFF THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (GETTEL NISSAN, 3530 BEE RIDGE RD, SARASOTA, FL 34239) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP MALFUNCTIONED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR THE REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

MY 2013 NISSAN SENTRA BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION AS WELL AS SHUDDERING HESITATING, DOWN SHIFTING ABOVE 50MPH.,WHINING SOUND FOLLOWED BY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CARRIED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER SHIP TO BE CHECKED OUT. I WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAILING. I WOULD NEED A NEW ONE. I HAVE ENCLOSED THE INVOICES AS WELL AS MY DIFFERENT STEPS TO TRY TO RESOLVE THIS AS A WARRANTY ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL PASSENGER AIR BAG DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN PASSENGER IS IN CAR WHILE THE CAR IS AND IS NOT IN MOTION. CAR TURNED OFF WHILE PULLING OUT OF DRIVEWAY. MECHANIC CONFIRMED I HAVE A WIRING ISSUE SOMEWHERE WHEN THEY TRIED TO PUT NEW FOG LIGHTS IN AND ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED.

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREETS, I LOSE SPEED AND CAN'T USE PEDAL TO ACCELERATE TO PICK UP ANY SPEED.CAR WON'T GO PASS 20 MPH.

STALLING WITHOUT WARNING SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A STOP INTERMITTANT HAS OCCURRED FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS. NISSAN DEALER UNABLE TO CORRECT PROBLEM AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS 'NO FAULT FOUND, UNABLE TO DUPLICATE COMPLAINT'. EGI HARRNESS REPLACED NO CHANGE IN 2016.

VEHICLE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELS FURTHER THAN NORMAL. HAVE CHECKED BRAKE PADS, BRAKE SHOES, ADJUST HAND BRAKE FLUSH BRAKE FLUID AND REFILL AND BLED ALL 4 BRAKE LINES. NO IMPROVEMENT. I BOUGHT USED.

WHILE DRIVING INTERMITTANT STALLING, RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON ALSO MAY ALMOST STALL UPON COMING TO A STOP LIGHT, BEGINS TO IDLE ROUGH, OCCURS VERY INTERMITTANT, WHEN PURCHASED PRE-OWNED SIMILAR PROBLEM WAS RECTIFIED BY REPLACEMENT OF SOME TYPE OF EMISSIONS HARNESS HAS BEEN BACK TO DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY KEEP CHARGING ME FOR TRYING TO REPAIR AND NOTHING SEEMS TO CHANGE STILL RANDOM STALLING
