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.

When I left work yesterday the car was stuck in park. I could not get it out of park. Had a mechanic come and finally get it out of parked. Apparently there is a defect that has nothing to do with me. However this can be serious and really an awful experience. What if I didn't know that there was a mechanic shop down the street or even worse yet, somewhere at night? THIS IS SURELY A DEFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
