80,000 miles and the transmission blew! this is not right. our auto shop told us this has been an ongoing issue with nissan & our type of vehicle involving the cvt transmission. this should be a red flag that this should not be happening. we were driving the vehicle on the highway and it was not accelerating. very dangerous. had the vehicle towed into our local auto shop to find out the vehicle needs a new transmission! unfortunately the dealership is telling us that our vehicle is not a part of the chronic factory recall that has been an ongoing issue with nissan for quite some time.
The car started jumping then slowed down when driving until it stoped
I was on my way home from san diego when my car wouldn't go over 65mph on the highway when i accelerate it hesitates to go into gear at times and my wife put it in drive and it wouldn't go no mechanic would look at my car because they say it's a recall on my vehicle but the dealer is saying it's not on recall
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 nissan sentra. while driving 20 mph, a loud noise heard was heard and the vehicle began to jerk. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired nor taken to a dealer. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 74,000.
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.
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 ...
Takata recall my transmission has gone twice in 4 years of having a brand new car. first time within a month. no warning lights, nothing. all of a sudden my car starts sputtering, won't accelerate and starts going in reverse while in drive. my car is not drivable at this point and had to be left in another state
Bought the car brand new dec 2015, transmission needed to be replaced at 68k miles, nissan replaced it in jan 2018, and now june 2019 the transmission needs to be replaced again only 1.5 years after they replaced the last transmission. the car is only 3 years and 7 months and needs it's 3rd transmission. the transmission can go out at anytime, it needs to be replaced every 1-2 years. while driving on the freeway the rpm jumps up and down, when driving above 60 mph. it's very unsafe and it is not reliable.
The car has a little less than 35000 miles on it. while driving it loses speed and even when i press the pedal down it doesn't want to move. the rpms go way up but the car is very slow to pick up speed. the problem really picked up after the dealer did the recommended transmission service. it has happened several times now.
Noticed lack of power while driving constant kick back almost like going over a rumble strip when accelerating loss of fuel mileage and occasionally a sound like a bird chirp if goes above 2000 rpm. happens on city or highway roads. no lights on the dash or check engine light coming on. took my 2015 sentra to nissan to find out warranty has expired even though several year models from 2003-2010 have faulty cvt transmissions expanding to warranty but 2015 isn't included.
Take it a dealer , they said is the transmission,but where i bought it, they don't want to help me, i bought insurance 3 years or 35000 miles, i have 120000 miles, i still paying the car,it could be a recall car??it's on the street.
Took my car in for a whining sound. was told at nissan hwy 96 in warner robins that i needed a transmission and that my warranty expired at 60000 miles. my car loose power on incline and is making a whining sound. sluggish in changing gears and just seems to slow down even when i am pushing the gas .
Car loses power to console only at times and others the hole car loses power while driving losing all control of car while in motion.
While driving the vehicle, it would stutter when attempting to accelerate uphill. made appointment with local dealership for a diagnostic test. on the day of the appointment, the service department called and reported metal shavings in the transmission. the service manger said that the automatic transmission would be 'rebuilt'.
When driving my vehicle on the interstate and keeping a steady 65-70 mph it will all the sudden stop accelerating and mpg's decline. i was in the fast lane and was almost rear ended. i had to pull the car over. it did restart and i continued to drive. this has occurred now four times. i have called the dealership and requested an appointment. i informed them what was happening and asked if they have heard of this issue. the man i spoke to stated he had never heard about it before. i found some information online and know this is affecting a ton of people. i bought this vehicle brand new from a nissan dealership and they service it for everything. i am hoping i do not end up having to replace the transmission like so many others on my dime when this is a known issue.
