Purchased the car in november 2013, driving the highway, as we exit the highway, we had to stop for the red light, once the light change to green, hit the green pedal and the car would not move. had to think quickly so i shut car off, then turned it back on, pressed the gas pedal, but there was no get up and go. the car crept very slowly. was able to make it across the road to the gas station, turned the car off allowed it to set for 15 minutes turned car back on still was driving at less than 20 miles per hour. car was done, there was a hotel the street from the gas station was able to push it over there. knew we had to figure out what to do. called trip a to have the car towed to faulkner nissan on paxton st. in harrisburg pa since it was after 5pm on a saturday, they were closed, and closed all day on sunday. had to get a cab to the harrisburg airport to get a rental car, no way to get back home or to work. paid 355.00 for a 7 day rental. received a called from faulkner nissan monday after having a service technician check it, he said the transmission died. brand new car, faulkner wants to replace it with a rebuilt transmission, questions is will that one break down on me as well. today is wednesday, july 23rd, 2014, still no word on the status of car. *tr

While in heavy traffic on a bay area bridge, the car lost acceleration, started to slow down, even while i pumped the gas pedal all the way to the floor. had it towed to dealer, they said it had to do with cooling fan. after that repair, the same problem happened several more times, always while on the highway, but i found if i kept pumping the gas pedal all the way to the floor it would eventually start to slowly accelerate. after a near-accident on the freeway due to this problem as i drove through san jose, i took the car back in and they replaced the transmission. 2 days later the heat shield fell off while i was driving. 5 days after that, while on the highway traveling at 40mph, the car again lost power, slowly decelerating, despite pumping the gas pedal to the floor. after several attempts to pump the gas it finally started to accelerate again, so i did not pull off the highway. *tr

Takata recall on multiple occasions while driving on streets and highways, the vehicle seems to be stuck on a lower gear or not transitioning to a higher gear. the most noticeable issue is related to the rpm's getting extremely high with little or no increase in overall speed. the most recent incident occurred while on the freeway, as i was attempting to increase my speed the vehicle slowly accelerated up to 45 - 50 mph but the rpm's reflected 6,500+ before the vehicle would start to jerk at this point i had no choice but to move towards the emergency lane/shoulder fearing that it would abruptly stop working or lose momentum. this instance happened on two occasions during this drive while on the freeway and it seemed to stop after the second time i pulled over but only after i cycled through the park/neutral/reverse/drive/low gears a few times. based on this second instance, i feel this issue is related to the transmission for the vehicle.

While supposedly "stopped" at a red light, i realized i was rolling forward with the brake depressed. i pressed the brake pedal to the floor and the car stopped. when i accelerated ever so slightly, the car bucked and jolted forward. i slowed to a stopped with barely there brakes, put the car in park and pumped up the brakes, raising the pedal. this seemed to temporarily help, but the pedal went to the floor again the next time attempted to stop. car is at the dealership now. i am awaiting their call. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan sentra. the contact stated that the tpms warning light kept illuminating intermittently. the contact constantly had to check the tire pressure. although the dealer reset the code, the failure recurred for longer than six weeks. the contact stated that at least three or more times, the vehicle stalled without warning. the contact was able to coast the vehicle over to the side of the road the second time the failure recurred, but there was a strong hesitation as if the vehicle may stall again. the vehicle was taken to the authorized dealer who diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced several times. the dealer replaced the transmission three times and indicated that it needed to be replaced a fourth time. the contact was concerned that the failure may recurr intermittently even if the transmission was replaced again. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 17,000.

I only had my car for about 10 months. i keep my car updated with the maintenance. i drove to las vegas, nevada friday afternoon. my car was running great i get to las vegas nevada i here this loud grinding crinkly noise coming from my engine or transmission. i take it to planet nissan in las vegas nevada. they took forever to even take me as a customer. then they come out and say you are not eligible for a rental and your transmission went out. they proceeded to tell me that i will be responsible for the car as far as picking it up when its fixed. this is the worst experience i had with cars. this is the third time something bad happens to this car and its supposed to be brand new. i bought it with 32 miles on it. mind you all this was on a trip i took to vegas with my family. my two year old son was drained from this experience having to spend 6 hours at planet nissan. they even try selling me a another new sentra. *tr

My 2013 nissan has 75,000 highway miles. i've had no issues with the car until christmas eve. driving home from work when my car started running rough, it didn't seem to have any pick up. i pulled into the closest nissan dealership to find out i had transmission failure and that my warranty had just ran out..i am looking into this a bit more because this transmission is not used in the 2014 or 15 model. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan sentra. the contact stated that while driving 65 mph, the vehicle began to lose power. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection where they stated that the transmission needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 7,007. ..updated 02-04-14 *bf

Cvt failure- transmission slips, jerks, and violently shudders like i am slamming my breaks. car is scary to drive and someone will get hurt. nissan unable to address the issue due to no trouble codes stored. well they cleared the code that was stored when i first brought it in: cvt clutch issue. high rpms and struggles to switch gears. went down a ramp on the interstate and almost lost control the car shuddered so bad. also jerks and sputters when pulling off from a red light or stop sign.

My 2013 nissan sentra sl is over reving causing the car to stall while driving at normal speeds. this has happened a number of times, im having to pull off the highway and turn vehicle off for it to function correctly. this issue is on going every single day when i drive.

I was waiting at a red light to make a left turn. once the light turned green and i stepped on the accelerator, the car started to jerk and lost power. it did not turn completely off but it would not drive. i had to put my hazard lights on to avoid being rear ended by the vehicle directly behind me that was also making a left turn. i owned the car for less than 24 hours at that point. it only had 152 miles on the odometer. the dealership sent a tow. the diagnosis was that the software needed to be updated. i don't understand how nissan can sell a car that isn't properly programmed? why wasn't the programming checked prior to me driving it off the lot? i will drive it for a few days to see if it happens again. *tr
