Severe Vibrations Noticeable On Seats
2013 Nissan Sentra
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Nissan dealer.
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.

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
I purchased this 2013 Nissan Sentra on October 8, 2014. My husband recently passed away and I am 75 years old. Two weeks after I purchased, my back brakes would squeak and so I took it in and they put new rotors on. At the same time I mentioned that when I am idling at a light or stop sign, I look to the passenger seat where it looks as though it is having seizures. The passenger seat is shaking so badly, as well as mine, but I'm sitting in it. I explain to them and they told they would lower "something". It didn't help. I took it back again and the Assistant Manager told me they took it for a test drive and didn't detect any shaking. The third time I sat in the service department and told intake person to come around and observe. He kept the car and probably didn't do anything because when I went to pick my car up he told me that this shaking is characteristic of the Nissan Sentra and Altima, and until they get a recall notice, there is nothing they can do.
Am I suppose to accept that? Is the dealership playing the "old widow card" with me? I am a senior, I am not stupid. I need help. I am concerned with my safety when I am driving, that this may be a symptom of something bigger.
