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.
Paint on some of the surfaces is thinner than paper and doesn't look like it bonded to the primer properly. Barely brushing a suitcase up against the bumper cover took off bits and flakes. Moreover, you can flake off the paint easily with a fingernail and another chip came off on the door panel. Since it's a leased car this is something that concerns me, as I wouldn't be happy getting fined for shoddy work from the factory. I have since touched up the existing spots, but I wouldn't be surprised at all to see more bits flake off. The car was only 2 months old when this started. I'll be using an excellent paint sealer - Wolfgang Deep Paint Gloss Sealer 3 - and probably some synthetic wax too in order to prevent further damage. I have a Chevy Cruze that had a ding from what was most likely a shopping cart and I can see that the paint is many times thicker than the Sentra. Not happy about this but the car has otherwise been fine for the first 3 months.
