2017 Nissan Sentra

I HAVE A NEW 2017 NISSAN SENTRA SR AND WHEN I PUSH DOWN ON THE BRAKE TO START THE CAR AND THEN PUSH THE START/STOP BUTTON ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON BUT THE CAR WILL NOT START. THIS HAS HAPPENED VARIOUS TIMES AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ONCE FOR REPAIR, THEY CHANGED THE BRAKE SENSOR, BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING ALMOST ONCE EVERY OTHER WEEK.

PURCHASED MY CAR IN AUG. OF 2017. JAN. 2018 WAS THE FIRST OF 7 TIMES I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CASE IS AT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA IN ARBITRATION WHERE THEY WANT TO 'COMPENSATE' ME $1500 TO ESSENTIALLY SHUT MY MOUTH. THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT LAG IN THE ACCELERATION NOT ONLY FROM A STANDSTILL , BUT ALSO WHILE IN MOTION TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO HIGHER SPEEDS. THE CAR WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN 55 MPH UP A HILL. WHEN THE CAR IS ON SLIGHT INCLINES THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER IN ATTEMPTING TO CLIMB AND THE ENGINE TACHOMETER READINGS CLIMBS WELL ABOVE THE DESIGNED RPM SPECIFICATIONS. THIS HAPPENS ON LEVEL GROUND. WHEN ACCELERATED FROM 45 MPH TO 55 MPH THE TACHOMETER WOULD APPROACH 6000 RPMS PRIOR TO SWITCHING GEAR. IT DOESN'T OCCUR 100% OF THE TIME, THE VEHICLE CONSISTENTLY REACHES CLOSE TO 6000 RPMS PRIOR TO SHIFTING TO A HIGHER GEAR. AS I DRIVE I ALSO START TO NOTICE A BURNING SMELL. MY CAR IS CONSUMING EXCESSIVE FUEL COMPARED TO ANOTHER 'LOANER' 2019 NISSAN SENTRA SV WHICH HAS THE SAME EXACT SPECIFICS. MY CAR REQUIRES 3 TIMES THE FUEL TO DRIVE A SIMILAR DISTANCE. WHEN TELLING NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS THIS I WAS TOLD 'THIS IS NORMAL BECAUSE MY CAR IS OLDER AND HAS MORE MILEAGE ON IT.' NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OVER A 2 TO 3 YEAR PERIOD WOULD NOT ACCOUNT FOR SUCH A DISPARITY IN FUEL MILEAGE. NISSAN TECH SUPPORT HAS PHYSICALLY GONE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO TRY TO FIX MY VEHICLE AND I SINCE TAKEN IT IN ON FEBRUARY 10 FOR THE 7TH TIME. NISSAN CALLED BECAUSE MY ARBITRATION POC DIDN'T CALL THEM LIKE SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO 4 DAYS AGO SO NOW MY VEHICLE SITS AT THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. . MY VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ON A PUBLIC ROADWAY OR TO TRANSPORT MY 8YO. I HAVE SUBMITTED MY CASE TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE AND BBB AUTO-LINE CLAIM. I JUST WANT TO BE IN A SAFE VEHICLE. I HAVE ALL THE SERVICE DOCS BUT FILE IS TOO BIG TO ATTACH.

WHILE DRIVING ON A PRIVATE RESIDENTIAL STREET, MY 2017 SENTRA ACCELERATED FROM 20 TO OVER 100 MPH IN SECONDS. BRAKES NOR EMERGENCY BRAKE WORKED. CAR SPUN OUT AND CAME TO A VIOLENT STOP BEFORE CAREENING INTO A TOWNHOUSE COMMUNITY. WAS TOLD MY TRANSMISSION CAUSED THE PROBLEM. *DT CONSUMER STATED THE CAR HAS BEEN REPAIRED. SOMETHING WITH THE TRANSMISSION CAUSED THE CAR TO LOSE CONTROL. THEY REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION AND IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE FINE NOW. YOU HAVE MY APPROVAL TO SPEAK WITH NISSAN REGARDING MY CAR. UNFORTUNATELY I AM BEING FORCED TO PICK IT UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP TODAY ALTHOUGH I TOLD THEM I DON'T WANT THE CAR ANYMORE. NISSAN CORPORATION WILL NOT BUY IT BACK BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THE FIX IS GOOD. I DID NOT TAKE ANY PICTURES OF THE CAR AS THERE WAS NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO THE EXTERIOR. I HAD TO VISIT URGENT CARE THE DAY OF THE INCIDENCE. I WAS IN SHOCK AFTER WHAT TOOK PLACE ' TERRIBLE HEADACHE, SORE BODY, NAUSEA. I AM CURRENTLY SEEING A PSYCHOLOGIST/PSYCHIATRIST FOR PTSD FROM THE INCIDENT. THAT'S THE REASON I DON'T WANT THE CAR BACK. I FEEL LIKE I WILL HAVE A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN IF I HAVE TO DRIVE IT. IF I MUST TAKE IT HOME TODAY I WILL HAVE IT TOWED TO MY RESIDENCE UNTIL I CAN MAKE ALTERNATIVE PLANS. *JB *TR *DT CONSUMER STATED CAR HAS BEEN REPAIRED. SOMETHING WITH THE TRANSMISSION CAUSED THE CAR TO LOSE CONTROL. *JB

I WAS DRIVING AND THE RADIO TURNED OFF, THE DASH TURNED OFF AND THE CAR TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING BUT LESS THAN A MINUTE ALL TURNED ON IT HAPPENED 4 TIMES... FROM THAT DAY ON THE RADIO WONT TURN OFF EITHER WHEN PRESSING THE TURN OFF BUTTON. AM REALLY SCARED IF SOMETHING GOES CRAZY WITH THE CAR WHILR DRIVING. SORRY MY ENGLISH IS NOT THAT GOOD.

SINCE MY SECOND OIL CHANGE (VEHICLE IS UNDER 15000 MILES CURRENTLY) THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL RANDOMLY COME ON AND THEN GO AWAY. IT WOULD NOT ALARM ME, BUT I AM HEARING THE SHIFTING OF THE POWER TRAIN NOW MORE OFTEN THAN BEFORE. A CLICKING AS IT SHIFTS UP AND DOWN. THE ENGINE IS A CVT, BUT FROM WHAT OTHER MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME, THIS IS NOT HOW IT SHOULD SOUND AND SHOULD NOT BE HOW IT PERFORMS.

I BOUGHT THE CAR FOR 15K CASH THAT DAY, 45 MINUTES LATER WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY I HAVE AN OPTION FOR ECO MODE AND BOOST MODE, I WENT TO TURN ON ECO MODE AND NOTHING I HIT IT AGAIN NOTHIN, 3RD TIME THE ECO LIGHT CAME ON, THEN I GO FOR CRUZE CONTROL , 1,2,3,4 TRYS NOTHIN ON 5TH IT WORKED, IM DOING 70 ON RHE HWY AND ITS NOW 75 I WENT TO HIT ACCELERATE 1 TIME IT IT FLEW INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER PERSON , AND INSTANTLY WHEN I HIT ACCELERATE THE GAS PEDAL WAS FLOORED AND DIDNT HAVE TIME TO TURN OFF. I DO TRULY FEEL RHIS IS A LEMON CAR AND NOW 16K IN THE HOLD AND NO CAR
