2015 Nissan Sentra

My transmission has went out 3 or 4 times now. Nissan has replaced it and the same issue keeps occurring. I was driving in the middle of the intersection and my car just stopped. I had to have people help me push my car out of the way. Nobody would stop and almost hit me and the people helping. There were no warning lights that came on. My car jerked then my car would not increase speed. It would just rev really high then not move

The CVT transmission failed again. It was replaced in Dec 2021 and now it has failed again. The safety of my 19 year old daughter was put at risk being she was 30 minutes away from home and with no prior warning the transmission failed as she was driving it. The car runs great outside of the transmission issues. We had to have the car towed to our local dealership. They did cfm that the transmission failed again. There were no indications that there was something wrong with the transmission. It was not lagging, it was running great. Nissan is fully aware of all the transmission issues they are having and they are not willing to help with the faulty transmission. This will be the 3rd transmission if we pay 6000.00 to have it repaired for it to fail again in less then 2 years.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated while driving approximately 50 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. The contact stated that the vehicle decelerated to 5 MPH and the vehicle started coasting. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal; however, the vehicle failed to respond. The contact stated there was no warning light illuminated. The contact was able to safely stop the vehicle. The contact placed the vehicle in park (P) and turned the vehicle off and restarted the vehicle and the vehicle failed to shift into drive(D) or reverse(R). The contact had the vehicle towed to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the TCM module on the CVT transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 149,946.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the vehicle hesitated and started overheating. The overheat warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to pull over on the side of the road and waited for the vehicle to cool down and was able to drive the vehicle home once the vehicle had cooled down. The vehicle was diagnosed by an independent mechanic who stated that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 90,000. The VIN was not available.

The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

The vehicle suddenly stopped accelerating while driving 10 mph in heavy traffic. The RPM's do not go above 2,000 and no visible failure lights on dashboard are reported. Vehicle has 109k miles and has always been serviced. Mechanic performed inspection and confirmed CVT failure. Replacing the CVT now costs what the car is worth. Makes no sense to repair. Nissan needs to do better.

The problem is that the transmission on this vehicle had to replaced at 108k miles. This I believe is a known issue with the CVT transmission used in this model. Nissan claims that the warranty was extended to 80k miles or 7 years. I filed a complaint with Nissan complaint # 48661785, But they of course didn’t do anything. This vehicle was purchased new and all services were done at a Nissan Dealership. The transmission just stopped while driving.
