The dealer had not repaired the vehicle; but referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to inquire about a possible recall. The contact spoke with a second dealer, Hudson Nissan of Charleston (1714 Savannah Hwy, Charleston, SC 29407) and it was confirmed that the VIN was not under recall. The contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic and was also diagnosed with transmission failure. The vehicle was not repaired.

  Going at speeds from 2mph to 70mph+ the transmission seems to be cutting in and out, I have to either lay off the gas or pull over and let It sit for it to stop acting up and it’ll stop for a while and then acts up again. The OEM original CVT shipped with the car has major problems, passenger safety issues, could cause a major accident or death.

  2019 NISSAN SENTRA Automatic Emergency Braking system suddenly brakes w/o warning while cars are present or not, sensor light comes on and car will stall or abruptly/automatically stop itself. Malfunction light comes on states malfunction look in owners manual. While driving car automatically stopped at a light or in traffic and would not move forward the malfunction light came on. This has been occurring 2 days after purchase (11-6- 2021- 12-7-2021) until recent. 12-7-21 the car stopped itself at a red light (I was the first vehicle in line no one in front of me or to my sides) on green as I tried to press on the gas the car stalled, the back windows rolled up and down, the radio went on and off, and the malfunction light for AEB flashed then the car locked, then solid engine light came on, @ first I could not get my hazard lights on then suddenly they worked. People drove past me honked, called me names, and finally one person helped me move it out of the road. While on the side of the road the car again was on but when I pressed on gas would not accelerate, however while the brake and emergency brake were on and the car was in park it rolled backwards. My son return it to the purchasing dealership twice with the complaint of the malfunction light on told they did not know what was going on and that it was unusual bring it back for maintenance. problem persisted. The car has been brought back twice to the dealership with this and other braking/electrical concerns w/in a shorttime before the final major incident happened (I am thankful that no-one was hurt). Right now 12-8-2021, I had been back to the dealership after reporting the incident with the idea that I would be helped and put into a newer safer vehicle, not the case upon arrival they tried to up sell me a new car @ higher price, when I said no, my option was to fix what is covered under warranty. States they will run own diagnostic test.

• 11/28/2023· FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

  The Automatic Emergency Braking does not operate as it was designed to. My vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My and my families safety was put at risk because the AEB failed to engage as it should have. We didn't have an accident, but came very close to it. This has happened before, and every time the vehicle fails to automatically brake. I have complained about and had the vehicle inspected for this issue several times by the dealer, during AND after the manufacturers warranty expired. Every time I'm told it's operating as expected....it is not! I hear warning beeps, often when someone is turning in front of me and I'm not even close to them, but it never attempts to brake. I never heard it beep when getting close enough to a vehicle directly in front of me to make it activate, until recently. After the last time I complained to the dealer about it, it's now acting different. It now beeps when I'm coming up to a vehicle that's directly in front of me, but it still fails to activate the brakes as I believe it should. I've driven other vehicles with this system and the brakes activate well before there's a chance of collision. This issue appeared within the first few months we owned the vehicle, which I purchased brand new from the dealer.

  I got this car from Rocky Mount dealership in 2020, I mentioned less than 30 days it drove funny, then less than 6 months the car had recall, which with everything going on in the pandemic it took a while to get the piece for the recall…again which i reported that the car drove funny less than 5 days of my purchase. Nothing… When the car was service for the recall, i mentioned it drove funny but no lights were on and nothing could be determined due to the recall fixed. Fast forward to now 4 years later the car shakes, jerks, slow to accelerate and the RPM is jumpy. As well as when you switch gears as I’m looking at 3-5k to get this fixed.

THE CAR GEAR SHIFT POPPED INTO REVERSE; I PRESSED HARDER ON BRAKES & THEY FINALLY WORKED. I NOTICED A BIG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD SAYING 'MALFUNCTION, CHECK OWNERS MANUAL' THERE WAS A GRAY SYMBOL NEAR THESE WORDS. INSIDE THE SPEEDOMETER CIRCLE THAT SAME SYMBOL APPEARED IN BRIGHT YELLOW. AT SOME POINT WITHIN AN HOUR 2 MORE YELLOW SYMBOLS APPEARED ON THE FAR LEFT OF THE DASH, A YELLOW TRIANGLE WITH AN EXPLANATION POINT, AND A CAR WITH 2 CURVED LINES BEHIND THE BACK TIRES.

AND THAT I HAVE TO GET A RENTAL CAR AND MY CAR REPAIR THROUGH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. HE PUSHED THE IDEA OF GETTING THE CAR REPAIRED. I STATED I JUST BARELY GOT THE CAR 3-4 WEEKS AGO BRAND NEW. I LEFT THE CAR TO BE CHECKED BY SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE NEXT DAY THE SERVICE MANAGER DENIED ANY MALFUNCTION SAYING THERE WASN'T ANY CURRENT CODES JUST PAST CODES; I ASKED WHAT THAT MEANT HE SAID A BRAKE SENSOR AND SOME OTHER DATA I DIDN'T COMPREHEND. HE SAID GET MY INSURANCE TO FIX THE CAR. I SAID NO SIR, I WANT MORE INFORMATION ON WHY THE CAR MALFUNCTION FIRST. ONCE I EXPLAIN TO HIM AGAIN WHAT HAPPENED HE SAID HE WOULD HAVE HIS FORMAN CHECK OUT THIS CAR THE NEXT MORNING; HOWEVER LESS THAN AN HOUR THE SERVICE MANAGER ME BACK TO SAY HE TALKED TO A FIELD TECH ENGINEER AND WAS ADVISED THAT I HAD A RIGHT TO CALL NISSAN CORP TO MAKE A REPORT. I WENT BY SRVC DPT TO GET SOMETHING, THEY TRIED TO GET TO TAKE/REPAIR MY CAR. I DIDN'T. ONCE I SPOKE TO NISSAN CORP THEY SAID IT TAKE 6-8 WEEKS FOR INVESTIGATION ETC TO BE COMPLETED AND FOR ME NOT TO GET CAR REPAIRED.

  When i bought the car, it started making a grunting sound every time I would accelerate the car and start driving. Now the car stalls while I'm on drive. It had turned off on me a few times while driving and quickly turn back on, and other times it would turn off when I would make a turn I took my car to my mechanic and they weren't sure what is wrong with it. They say it might be an electrical issue or the transmission, they also said that my axles are bad on my car. I only have a year with the car which I bought from enterprise car sales and it had 115k miles. Still too little for it to have that many problems.

  Intermittently unable to start (start button flickers quickly sometimes). Dealer checked out common start issues like battery and alternator for free and charged for start lamp switch but still intermittently cannot start car.

• 11/13/2020· SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

  MY CAR FREQUENTLY CHIMES WITH THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING / EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST AS THOUGH THERE IS A CHANCE OF A COLLISION. WHEN IT DOES THIS, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN FRONT OF MY CAR! WHEN LEAVING WORK 2 DAYS AGO, I STARTED TO CROSS A LITTLE BUMP IN THE ROAD THAT I CROSS DAILY WITH NO ISSUES; THIS PARTICULAR INSTANCE HOWEVER, MY CAR DECIDED THAT IT WAS AN APPARENT COLLISION BECAUSE MY CAR CAME TO A DEAD STOP FROM ABOUT 15-20 MILES PER HOUR. FORTUNATELY MY HUSBAND AND I WERE BOTH WEARING OUR SEATBELTS, AND NO ONE WAS BEHIND US AS IT WOULD HAVE CERTAINLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THE SENSOR/RADAR FOR THE FORWARD COLLISION/EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST IS A HAZARD IN MY OPINION. THE CONCEPT IS FANTASTIC, BUT IF IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK PROPERLY, THEN IT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM VEHICLES, OR AT LEAST BE ABLE TO BE DISABLED INDEFINITELY, NOT JUST WHILE YOU'RE OPERATING THE VEHICLE ONLY TO HAVE TO REMEMBER TO DISABLE THE FUNCTION NEXT TIME YOU'RE DRIVING.

  I've noticed an issue with the radio coming on by itself when it's sitting in the garage and apparently it causes a drain on the battery. There's been several times I've gone out to the car and it doesn't start I don't know if the two are connected. I've had the battery checked the alternator checked and they've all been fine. The car is just now 2 years old I took it over from my son when I bought it for him and when I talked to him he's had the same issue.

The problem has been reported to the dealer, documented, and confirmed by the Nissan Dealer on [XXX] at Nissan Servicing Dept - 1919 Central Park Avenue, Yonkers, NY 10710. The attendant who I worked with was Daniel Ramroop and confirmed situation @ 1pm EST. 4. No, the vehicle was not in an accident so there is no police, insurance, or other representative report. 5. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure 6. About a year and brought it in for checking last week when I received the recall notice to bring the car in for curing the recall. The service department said that if electrical issues related to the stop lamp switch recall caused the failure, that they could look at both the same time. 7. In their review, they stated that it was not caused by the stop lamp and do not have an explanation for why the radio failed. 8. I have attached the work order and the review of the rear camera, radio, and rear sensors 9. There were 26 NHTSA complaints as of March 2023 exist for the Nissan’s electrical issues concerning the radio but no recall or known repair is associated with the radio.

  This warning light has been present since I test drove this car in March 2023. The dealership stated if I purchased the vehicle they would fix the issue before I took delivery after purchasing the vehicle in March 2023 the warring light came on several times within hours of picking up the vehicle. I took the vehicle back to the dealer at least twice within a week or so to have them fix the issue, finally the service department at McGee took the car to Mastria Nissan. Mastria is a certified Nissan dealer. Mastria fixed the issue by re-calibrating the sensor in the front bumper that governs the Automatic Braking System (AEB). This sensor also controls the cruise control system as well. Mastria Nissan fixed the sensor on or around May 12, 2023. It is now September 2023 and this same sensor, same warning light and same error code is coming on continuously every time I drive the vehicle. That is less than 4 months of driving. I have checked around the sensor. There are no obstructions around the sensor. There is no dirt or corrosion around the sensor and it is extremely affixed to its mounting bracket. There is no logical reason for this sensor to be failing within less than 4 months of driving. This is a poor and shoddy design malfunction on Nissan’s part. This defective equipment installed on my 2019 Nissan Sentra is a serious safety concern. If this sensor stops working or malfunctions while driving, this could cause a loss of control while on the road. As this sensor governs the AED system this could cause a loss of control while on the road or worse. I could end up driving off the road uncontrolled. It could also result in a collision with another vehicle on the road. This safety issue needs to be fixed by Nissan.
