2013 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

PURCHASED A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA WITH AROUND 45820 MILES ON IT.2 WEEKS LATER THE TRANSMISSION GOES OUT. THEY REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY.RECEIVED IT BACK WITH PROBLEMS. RPM WOULD GO UP PAST 5 WHEN ACCELERARING OR PASSING. COMPLAINED AND NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK WAS TOLD THAT WAS NORMAL.. PROBLEM CONTINUES. EVEN HAD A SUPERVISOR TEST DRIVE AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS OUT OF ORDER.CONTACT CORPORATE THEY SEND ME TO A NEW DEALER AND ITS GEARS THAT ARE NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY. SOLUTION ANOTHER TRANSMISSION THIS TIME THEY EXPECT ME TO PAY BUT THEY ARE WILLING TO PAY HALF.UNACCEPTABLE FOR A PROBLEM I BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT SINCE RECEIVING THE VEHICLE BACK.OBVIOUS DEFECT IN TRANSMISSION FOR NISAN OR IN MECHANICS THAT WORK FOR THEM

'TAKATA RECALL" I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW, I'VE ONLY HAD IT FOR 3 YEARS AND NOW I NEED TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR AN ALIGNMENT, I WAS SHOWN WHERE THERE IS A LEAK ON THE TRANSMISSION. I'VE TAKEN IT TO 3 SEPARATE MECHANICS. UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE ITS A CVT TYPE OF TRANSMISSION, ONLY NISSAN IS ABLE TO FIX IT! NISSAN WON'T BUDGE ON THE COST OF REPAIRS, THEY HAVE AN I DON'T CARE ATTITUDE ABOUT IT. IT'S A [XXX] SHAME THAT NISSAN IS BUILDING FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS AND WON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I AM LITERALLY KICKING MYSELF IN THE [XXX] FOR BUYING A NISSAN. ONCE UPON A TIME, NISSAN WAS KNOWN TO MAKE EXCELLENT QUALITY CARS THAT WERE BUILT TO LAST A LIFETIME. THIS IS MY FIRST BRAND NEW CAR, BUT NOT MY FIRST NISSAN. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED! I WILL NEVER AGAIN PURCHASE A NISSAN! I WILL DISCOURAGE EVERYONE I KNOW FROM BUYING NISSAN VEHICLES! WHAT A DISGRACE!!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

VEHICLE WOULDN'T ACCELERATE GOING UP A SMALL HILL. RPM'S INCREASED TO 4000-5000 RANGE BUT NO POWER. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP SAID CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. 83,000 MILES, 3 YEARS OLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,230.

NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 16V-242 I WENT TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP (9010 LIBERIA AVENUE MANASSAS,VA20110) ON 6/22/2016 TO HAVE THE RECALL DONE BY APPOINTMENT BUT THEY COULD NOT PERFORM THE SERVICE AS THEY DID NOT HAVE THE NECESSARY PART. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO AWAIT A NEW EMAIL APPOINTMENT BUT DESPITE MULTIPLE PHONE CALLS AND EMAILS, I CAN'T SEEM TO GET ANYONE TO RESPOND. I WENT BACK PHYSICALLY TODAY AT 9.15AM 11/2/2016 BUT AGAIN I WAS TOLD THE NECESSARY PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WANT TO WAIT TILL SOMEBODY ACTUALLY DIES TO TAKE CARE OF THE RECALL. DO HELP.

THE TRANSMISSION ON MY CAR HAS NOW BEEN REPLACE TWICE, THE CAR SHAKES, JOLTS AND SHUT OFF. NOW FOR A THIRD TIME WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREET THE CAR SHOCK HARD AND THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE FELL. THE CAR WAS UNMOVABLE. IT WAS SO DANGEROUS I WAS IN MORNING TRAFFIC AND 3 CARS ALMOST HIT ME BECAUSE THE CAR STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NOW WAITING TO SEE WITH WHAT EXCUSE THE COME OUT WITH. CAR ALWAYS SHAKES SINCE I TOG IT NEW IN 2013. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT COME OUT OF GEAR. VEHICLE WILL START AND COME OUT OF GEAR ONCE YOU HIT THE GEAR SHIFT SEVERAL TIMES. STARTED THE ISSUE LAST MONTH 09/05/2016. NO OTHER INCIDENT TOOK PLACE PRIOR. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY ON FLAT GROUND IN THE DRIVEWAY EVERY TIME IT HAS TAKEN PLACE. IF YOU PUT IT IN PARK ONCE YOU FINALLY GET IT OUT OF PARK IT TAKE ABOUT 45 MINUTES OF WORKING WITH IT TO GET IT BACK OUT.

MY NISSAN IS A 2013 SENTRA THE TRANSMISSION GAVE OUT AT 103,000K. 3K OVER THE DRIVE TRAIN WARRANTY.

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE DURING MORNING RUSH HOUR, MY 2013 NISSAN SENTRA STARTED SHAKING AND VIBRATING. THE ENGINE BEGAN MAKING SOUNDS, AND SINCE I WAS IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, I NOTICED THAT WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES OR TRIED TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T RESPOND. THE RPM METER WAS JUMPING ALL OVER THE PLACE. WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE, MY CAR WOULDN'T MOVE, AND THEN WOULD JERK FORWARD SUDDENLY. THIS ALL MADE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY VERY SCARY, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PROBLEMS CAME ABOUT SUDDENLY. I WOULD HAVE TO KEEP AN OVERCAUTIOUS DISTANCE FROM OTHER VEHICLES BECAUSE I WASN'T SURE WHEN MY CAR WOULD DECIDE TO STOP OR SPEED UP. ALL OF THIS WAS HAPPENING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. THE TRANSMISSION HAS HAD A RECALL BEFORE, AND I HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF CONSUMER REPORTS OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. MY VEHICLE IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD, I AM THE FIRST OWNER, AND I HAVE KEPT UP WITH ALL SERVICE REQUIREMENTS. CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACE, THAT THIS CARS CONTINUING TO HAVE THIS ISSUE SINCE THE BEGINING OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON THE SENTRAS I THINK NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR PUTTING CARS WITH UNSAFE TRANSMISSIONS ON THE ROAD, MY FAMILY OWN MANY NISSAN VEHICLES AND THEY ARE GOOD PRODUCTS WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ARE 2013 NISSAN SENTRA SR ON THE FREEWAY TRYING TO GET IN THE CAR POOL LANE WITH MY 7 YEAR OLD SON AND 2 YEAR OLD SON AND THE CAR WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED...I TEST DROVE IT IT WORKED FINE BUT WHEN I TURNED THE LIGHTS ON IT WOULDN'T PICK UP SPEED THIS IS ONLY HAPPENING WHEN MY LIGHTS ARE ON ....TOOK IT TO NISSAN THEY REPLACED TRANSMISSION SAID IT WAS FROM MY BACK TAILLIGHT HAVING WATER IN IT AND THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR A NEW TAIL LIGHT MY CAR ONLY HAS 51000 MILES IT'S STILL A FAIRLY NEW CAR . I'VE BEEN READING A LOT ONLINE AND OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE NISSAN SENTRA.
