2015 Nissan Sentra

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTIONED. THE VEHICLE STOPPED AND WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN THE GEARS WERE SHIFTED. THE CONTACT ALSO HEARD A KNOCKING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. SUBURBAN NISSAN OF TROY (1800 MAPLELAWN DR, TROY, MI 48084, (248) 649-2300) STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION MAY BE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND SUGGESTED TOWING THE VEHICLE TO THEIR FACILITY FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

"TAKATA RECALL" THIS ISSUE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CURRENT RECALL. MY ISSUE IS REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION. INITIAL ISSUE HAPPENED PRIOR TO 50K MILES, ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION FAILED. REPLACED BY NISSAN, 2ND TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 96K MILES, NISSAN WANTED TO REPLACE AGAIN. REQUESTED THEY TAKE VEHICLE BACK. SAW LEMON LAW INFO SHOWING ISSUES FROM 2012 - 2018. FYI VEHICLE STOPPED 1ST TIME ON FREEWAY. 2ND TIME IN MIDDLE OF BUSY INTERSECTION BOTH TIMES HAD TO BE TOWED.

THE VEHICLE HAS SO MANY DEFECTS!! THAT I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN?!?; BUT FIRSTLY I WANT MY MONEY BACK FOR THE EXORBITANT EXPENSIVE INTEREST RATE THEY CHARGED ME...!!! THEN THEY ADDED MY DEPOSIT INTO THE TOTAL COST INSTEAD IT SUBTRACTING IT FROM MY TOTAL!!!?? THE UPHOLSTERY INSIDE US COMING UP FROM THE FLOOR ALMOST MONTHS INTO THE PURCHASE. THE DEFROST DOESN'T WORK..THE ELECTRONIC PART THAT AFFECTS THE AUTOMATIC DOOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE; THE DOOR WONT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE PASSENGER! THE PEDAL AREA WHERE THE CARPET IS COMING UP. .IS EXPOSING THE UNDERNEATH OF CAR SAME WITH OTHER AREAS BUT FLOORING CARPET IS EXTREMELY LOOSE, AND EXPOSING WIRES. THE DRIVING ELECTRONIC FEATURE FOR WINDING ROADS IT KEEPS COMING ON AND WON'T SHUT OFF; I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!!!! IT TURNED ON MULTIPLE TIMES ON FREEWAY SLOWING ME DOWN & I TURNED THE BUTTON.ON THE FEATURE ...IT STILL WOULDN'T TURN.OFF...!!!, THE WIPERS ARE NOT WORKING WELL AT ALL AND HAVEN'T SINCE I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR. THE DRIVER'S SIDE PANEL THAT HAS CONTROL OF WINDOWS AND UNLOCK..IT IS COMING OFF ALREADY!!! I DON'T HAVE ANYONE IN THE CAR BUT ME SO IT'S DEFINITELY NOT ME!

I HAVE A 2015 NISSAN SENTRA WITH A FAILED CVT TRANSMISSION. THE FAILURE HAPPENED SUDDENLY WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, DOING AND AVERAGE SPED OF 65 MPH. DURING ACCELERATION, THE CAR WILL LURCH AND JUMP FORWARD LIKE IT'S LOSING POWER THAN GAINING IT BACK, IT SHIFTS EXTREMELY HARD AND WILL NOT GAIN SPEED UNLESS GOING DOWNHILL. WHILE PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR THE RPMS WILL BOUNCE BETWEEN 2K AND 6K RAPIDLY. THROUGH DOING RESEARCH I FOUND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE, THERE ARE SENTRA OWNERS WHO'S CAR HAS LESS THAN 60K MILES HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

MY CAR WAS DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY 2015 NISSAN SENTRA WITH A CRACKED, LEAKING SENDING UNIT AT CONNECTOR, PLASTIC MOLD. THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE 2015 SENTRA, BUT THERE IS FOR THE 2015 ALTIMA AND 2015 MAXIMA FOR THE SAME PROBLEM--A LEAK FROM THE SENDING UNIT. I FILED A CASE WITH NISSAN CORPORATION ON EITHER JULY 29 OR JULY 30, 2019 BUT AS OF TODAY, AUGUST 20TH, I CANNOT GET THEM TO CALL ME A WORK SO I MAY DISCUSS THE PROBLEM. THE LATEST RUNAROUND WAS A VOICEMAIL LEFT ON MY HOME PHONE TO CALL THEIR ARBITRATION AT 615-725-7670 BUT IT GOES TO A RING/NO/ANSWER. SO I CALL THE MAIN 800-647-7261 ON AN ENDLESS LOOP, NEVER BEING GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS MY CASE WITH ANYONE. THE MAIN CUSTOMER SERVICE IS ANSWERED BY RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL PEOPLE.

I HAVE GONE THRU 3 TRANSMISSIONS IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS. 1ST WENT OUT AT 33K, 2ND WENT OUT AT 86K, AND THE LAST AT 148K. NISSAN CHARGED ME 800.00 FOR THE 2ND. NISSAN STATES I AM LIABLE FOR ALL CHARGES NOW. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I'VE HAD THE WORK DONE HAS REPLACED OVER 1000 OF THESE TRANNYS. WHY? THEY ARE DEFECTIVE OR AT LEAST AN INFERIOR PRODUCT. A SEARCH OF YOUR SITE HAS GARNERED OVER 100 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS PART IN MY YEAR AND MODEL ALONE. NISSAN STATED TO ME THAT IF I REPLACE IT THE WARRANTY WILL BE 12 MO OR 12K MILES. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THIS PART IS PROPRIETARY TO THE VEHICLE, THERE IS NO OTHER REPLACEMENT PART! SALVAGE YARDS IN LAS VEGAS WILL NOT EVEN CARRY THEM. TO PUT A DIFFERENT TRANNY IN WOULD REQUIRE AN ENGINE AND ECM CHANGE. I ASKED ONE YARD WHAT THEY DO IF THEY GOT A VEHICLE WITH THIS TRANNY AND THEY STATED THAT THEY REMOVE THE TRANNY AND PART THE CAR OUT. IS THIS WHAT I'M FORCED TO DO? THE REALITY OF THIS PART FAILING AT SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY AND GETTING RUN OVER BY A SEMI TRUCK IS VERY REAL WITH DIRE CONSEQUENCES. I IMPLORE YOU TO LAUNCH AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE QUALITY OF THIS PART AND NISSANS BUSINESS PRACTICES.
