2013 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

MY 2013 NISSAN HAS 75,000 HIGHWAY MILES. I'VE HAD NO ISSUES WITH THE CAR UNTIL CHRISTMAS EVE. DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN MY CAR STARTED RUNNING ROUGH, IT DIDN'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY PICK UP. I PULLED INTO THE CLOSEST NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT I HAD TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND THAT MY WARRANTY HAD JUST RAN OUT..I AM LOOKING INTO THIS A BIT MORE BECAUSE THIS TRANSMISSION IS NOT USED IN THE 2014 OR 15 MODEL. *TR

EVER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED I HAVE EXPERIENCED ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES, EVERY TIME I COME TO A STOP AND PRESS THE BRAKE AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE CAR STARTS MOVING AND THE BRAKE PEDAL LOOSES PRESSURE AND I HAVE TO PUSH MY FOOT FURTHER THAN NORMAL, EVENTUALLY MY FOOT TOUCHES THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE AND I CAN'T PUSH THE BRAKE ANY FURTHER, SO I HAVE TO TAP THE GAS AND THEN RE-ENGAGE THE BRAKE AGAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS IF YOU ARE GOING DOWNHILL AND COME TO A STOP. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR NUMEROUS TIMES, THAT IT'S GETTING TO THE POINT THAT ITS BECOME AN INCONVENIENCE TO ACTUALLY OWN THE CAR, TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE NISSAN I PURCHASED (NISSAN OF BERGENFIELD IN NEW JERSEY) AND THEY HAVE SAID NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR, THEY LOOKED AT THE BRAKES AND EVEN APPLIED MORE PRESSURE ON THE LINES BUT STILL THE ISSUE PERSISTS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW A COMPANY THAT VALUES SAFETY WOULD ALLOW THEIR CLIENTS TO BE DRIVING VEHICLES WITH THIS FAULT. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THEY ARE WAITING FOR IN ORDER FOR THEM TO REALIZE THAT THIS IS NOT SAFE BY ANY MEANS, SPECIALLY FOR MY FAMILY WHO I HAVE TO DRIVE AND PICK UP TO AND FROM WORK. I HAVE ALSO SPOKEN WITH THE DEALERSHIP BUT HAVE YET TO COME TO A RESOLUTION. IF YOU CAN PLEASE OPEN AN INVESTIGATION REGARDING THIS MATTER. PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR ANY INFORMATION YOU MAY NEED. *TR

PURCHASED A NISSAN CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE NISSAN SENTRA 2013. MILEAGE ON VEHICLE 10014. BOUGHT VEHICLE FROM HAWTHORNE NISSAN HAWTHORNE NJ. THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED FOR MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER.

ON THE OTHER ISSUE, STEERING LOCK AFTER TAKING OUT THE KEY DOESNT WORK. LIGHT BULB ON SHIFT STICK DOESNT WORK. CAN'T SEE THE GEAR SELECTION AT NIGHT. *TR
