2016 NISSAN SENTRA- Temple Hills, MD
One of the gaskets or public seals on the vehicle failed. When the adhesive that holds this gasket in place fails, it reduces the integrity of the windshield. When it initially failed, it was hitting both the windshield and passenger side window as I drove on the highway. I was advised that the windshield does not have it full level of protection without this seal. Consumer Affairs and the dealers have been unable to provide an answer as to why the gasket fails especially so early in the life of the car. It is a 2016 with less than 80,000. The dealer previously repaired the seal in 2018 and it failed again coming out of its place between the windshield and the hood. I had no warning as the seal came out of place. I began to hear the plastic gasket slap against the windshield as I drove down the highway. The dealer and manufacturer refused to repair it after inspecting while it was in for service. They indicated it was out of warranty but provided no reason why the gasket failed. My insurance company ultimately made arrangements with a glass shop because the gasket that forms the seal cannot be replaced without replacing the windshield. I had to pay the deductible for the repair to prevent further damage to my windshield and or passenger side window.

2016 NISSAN SENTRA- CANTON, OH
I have a sentra 2016 that has been from day 1 and brand new has had a shake, judder, stall during sudden acceleration or stop and go stop and go with being jolted forward, usually on the highway. I am always terrified to drive it anywhere. I can't believe there is no recall on this. They need to offer a new transmission for the owners.

2016 NISSAN SENTRA- Milwaukee, WI
It's been 6 months the car started to skeet transmission gear. When driving in highway at 65 to 70 mph the clock of idle start going from 1 up to 4 up and down. I took it to a auto repair and the mechanic stated is the transmission. I've done a research and other people have the same issue. I want to prevent a crash if the transmission goes down and car stop abruptly.

2016 NISSAN SENTRA- Hurst, TX
I am having issues with my check engine light going in and out. I received the code P0101. But the mechanic checked and said there's nothing wrong with my Mass Air Flow sensor nor trottle body. He said that everything was fine so he reset the car. A few months later the check engine light came back on. Went off a few months later. I have been going through this for a year now. I have also found a forum where several people are having issues with this same code P0101. And their mechanics are giving them the same answers. There needs to be a recall on Nissan Sentras for this reason.

2016 NISSAN SENTRA- Martinez , CA
Had the Sentra in the dealership three different times for transmission slipping while under warranty. Each time they came back saying there was nothing wrong and couldn’t duplicate any issues. Now out of warranty the transmission failed. Contacted Nissan corporate and their response was nothing we can do. Let them know that I had it in the dealership three times but it made no difference.
