Having issue while driving. ABS brake system light comes on and car jerks violently. Have to stop and turn off car and all lights. Push the ABS light button and start car again to repeat. Happens several times a day. Car has stopped twice on its on when this has occurred. Was driving from out of town on back roads and had to stop about every 10 minutes to stop and turn off car. Notice it was worse than before. Difference in roads from home. Roads I was on were several winding road. Did not got better even if I drove slowly.

Purchased the vehicle in June 2016, service engine light came on in October (approximately 60,000-70,000 miles) when temp dropped below 55 degrees. Took it to a mechanic, code read P0101. Find Nissan has posted a bulletin on this.followed all guidelines. He cleaned the maf sensor. Light went off. Next, day light comes back on. Go back, have sensor replaced. Light comes back on. Checks for vacuum leaks, change air filter blow out air box and surrounding components. Light still on. Take car for a diagnosis every few months to ensure its still the same thing and nothing else. No problem with cars drivability. Fast forward to 2019, vdc/ ABS lights come on. Call Nissan, tell me they cant help because my car was out of warranty. Nisan has posted bulletin for this issue follow all guidelines for repairs via their bulletin, all the way down to the $700 wheel speed sensor. Lights go off. But that started a new issue. My vdc/ABS lights will spontaneously come on causing my car to jerk violently at speeds between 20-30mph (or 2,500 RPM) causing me to stop dead in traffic, park the car, take the key out (it must be out!), wait a few seconds, turn it back on. Fast forward to this week (3/2/20) my car stalls out going 70 mph down the highway between to semis. Everything just shuts down. I literally almost died. Call Nissan and they tell me, my car isn't part of the recall, outside of the warranty, nothing we can do. Go to Nissan dealer. They want to charge $150 to diagnose. So I went elsewhere, got it diagnosed for free had maf cleaned, new air filter, codes reset. Light goes off. Driving home, car stalls again at 70 mph. No lights on dash. Have codes read immediately, no codes. Nothing. Wake up, drive to school, service engine light comes on, immediately stalls on highway. Immediately have does read: Three P0101 codes in row. I literally fear for my life and have no other choice.

I was driving my Nissan Sentra 2011 with an approx speed of 35 mph and then suddenly heard some noise from the bonnet. I pulled over and turned off the car but still able to hear sound coming from the ABS module. I took it to mechanic and he suggested to check for the recall as light for vdc, ABS & brake turned on. I checked with Nissan customer care and they said they dont have any information with my VIN# for any recall. I am surprised to see this as the car didnt meet any accident when all this happen. Nissan authorised center did diagnostic after charging $244 just to come out that ABS actuator(47660-9aa1A) need to be replaced which will further cost me about $1900. I have no idea how to cover up this cost as this seems to be completely a manufacturing defect and need to be taken care under a campaign.

On Sunday, Sept 22 2019 at around 1:40pm we were headed home from an vacation at a cabin rental property in sevierville, tn. Not even quarter mile from our cabin on a straight and down hill road all of a sudden the brakes stopped functioning. I applied brakes multiple times but the car didn't stop and in order to avoid a small pond on the right hand side and the car in front I had to divert my car on the shoulder of the road. As I hit shoulder of the road the front passenger wheel busted and the car eventually stopped further at the up hill. I don't know if the brakes failed and/or the ABS and/or the onboard computer malfunctioned. I did see ABS and vdc lights sign coming on the dashboard for at least 2 hours before disappearing on its own. Also since then the tire pressure sign has never gone off. The tire pressure signs blinks for a little while every time start the car and then gets steady. This seems to be an safety concern to me as I still can't understand how would the car do nothing even after applying the brakes so many times. With an 2011 model and only 56000 miles on it I would never expect something like this to happen. So scared to drive the car now as we have an two year old who was in the car at the time of the incident & my wife got an minor injury to her left elbow. I reported the incident to Nissan by calling 800-647-7261 on Sept 24 2019 and haven't heard anything back from them since than.

I had the same problems when it was only 20K miles { 2 years with warranty}. they didn't fix the problem and I was not happy. On 3rd year (before 3 years or 36 months expiration date), I sent it to Nissan dealership to inspect and they could not find any issue (no action or anything been fixed). It keep happening and I had to send it back again to recheck when it was 50K. And now it's 80K miles and the car is not safe to drive. I keep calling Nissan dealership and asking for advices. They can not help me or fix it. I was almost got hit few times when I drove this Nissan
