Spontaneous Glass Breakage

CarComplaints.com Seal Of Avoid Like The Plague

CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013-2017 Nissan Sentra has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data.

In late 2019, the CVT defect was subject to a class action settlement. However the settlement only covers transmission repairs up to 7 years after purchase or 84,000 miles (whichever occurs first).

Because many owners commonly drive 20,000 miles/year or more, Sentra owners experiencing CVT transmission problems may find they are not covered by this settlement due to the mileage limitation.

I was just driving on the streets about to enter the freeway and I hear a "bang" and my driver window exploded. My dad takes it to the mechanics and they found out that the metal was bent and so it was touching the glass which caused the sponatenous glass breakage. Before my dad took it to the mechanics, I asked him to see if the Nissan dealership could help and do something about it. We bought this BRAND NEW 2014 Nissan Sentra in May of 2014. The incident happened in December of 2014. And the man (supposedly a manager) said in his 30 years of working there, he had never heard of a spontaneous glass breakage.

I would not recommend buying your car at the Nissan dealership in San Leandro, CA. They willingly take your money but when it comes to a problem that was a manufacturer's issue, they pretend to not know anything. Definitely not helpful.
