Car starting jerking and came to almost a complete stop out the blue at 136,000-138,000 somewhere in between don't exactly remember. The first sigh something was wrong with car was the RPM would just go up high out of blue while accelerating which was dangerous ad just comming to a stop out of nowhere. We called around trying to get issue fixed but noone could help cause there was no light on in car to see if anything was wrong. Check engine light just came on as of today 10/11/2019 for first time ever at 141,000 and car stops doesnt pull. Does on highway, interstate and while turning.

While driving my 2013 Nissan Sentra fe + S on hwy and even inner city streets it seems to stall and loses power I need to know exactly what to do to make it safe to drive my vehicle if there is a way to take it back to a Nissan dealership to have it checked

- Lincoln, NE, USA

The car will not accelerate at a stop light, or when I am trying to make a turn, it will not properly accelerate, even if I hold down the accelerator all the way down, and then it will jerk and accelerate again. On highway, it will suddenly lose power: Https://www.youtube.com/watch?V=gxr7E0qwoka this is what happens to my vehicle, if I press on the accelerator all the way, it does not accelerate and instead only goes up a bit of RPM and doesn't go up all the way.

These are all of the problems I'm experiencing; loss of power, transmission jerking, transmission slipping, cvt coolant hose leaks and failures. All of these problems happened when I was in motion on major highways and my car couldn't go over 35mph. Not only was I endanger my child was also in the back seat to do the fact my car could not accelerate at all!! I've been experiencing these problems for some time now but the loss of power was the last straw. And then I start doing research on my car and find out Nissan has had problems with the cvt transmissions and I want to know why their isn't some type of recall on these unsafe vehicles. Its a danger to my family and the other drivers on the road because you never know when it is going to happen!!!

On 07/09/2019, while driving at highway speeds of 60 mph - 65 mph, traveling up a slight overpass, the cvt transmission on my 2013 Nissan Sentra sl shifted, to what seems to me, to be, the 1st gear. The RPM immediately shot up to 7,000 RPM. I immediately released the accelerator, but it continued to rev around 5,000-7,000 RPM. I was lucky the vehicle behind me swerved to avoid hitting me. The torque alone brought my vehicle to 40mph, I came to a stop, placed it in park, and turned of my vehicle on the side of the freeway. This occurred at the junction on interstate - 45 South, on 2nd right lane for exits to 610 - East and West. This incident occurred within.5 - 1 miles of these coordinates on I-45 South: 29.820626, -95.378574. This issue occurred again on the same day traveling North on the airline hov lane. I've attached a screen shot of a video I was able to take during the second incident of the that day. Vehicle in motion at high speeds 60-65 mph in houston tx on interstate-45 South. The vehicle was traveling up a slight over pass. However, this same issue has occurred on a flat road traveling at lower speeds in situations of stopping then accelerating to higher speeds (35 mph or 45 mph). It's sluggish to shift gears with a jerk motion when it finally does shift. The unsafe condition was introduced when the transmission caused my car not to accelerate on the houston high, in a situation where cars are merging or switching lanes to take exits. I spoke to a local Nissan dealer, and they invoiced me at $4,000-$5,000 dollars. I inquired a bit more, and they let me know that I'm "lucky, " as they have had Sentra's come in with only 30,000 miles. I also spoke with Nissan customer affairs, explained the issues to see if there was any warranty I was unaware of, but none. Sentra sl, 91,480 miles. (issues with transmission occurred even at 39K)

- Spring, TX, USA

I was driving for 2 hours straight all of a sudden the vehicle started to slow down so I pulled over and shut the car off waited for like a minute and the car started to pick up speed with jerking then I continue for a while when I came to a stop sign and tried to proceed it wouldn't go so I turned the car off again waited and it slowly picked up speed after me flooring the pedal then check engine light came on this has never happened but I did get a recall letter in the mail awhile back but it stated if the car is at 150,000 miles then something electrical would malfunction my vehicle is at 98,000 I was traveling on the road in motion while all this occurred I eventually had to get a tow home

- Mcdonough, GA, USA

The car showed P2859 which involved cvt transmission code. I see that there has been an ongoing issues about the cvt which unsafe when driving thru the highway..

'takata recall' when I recently got this car, at first I knew something was off because it wouldn't accelerate like a normal car and it wouldn't go pass by 30mph on the freeway. I let a couple of days passed by until the last day before I told the dealer, I was an entire day turning my car on and off thinking that it will stop glitching but I was on the freeway and I was causing a lot of traffic due to it's malfunction. After that, they took it to the dealer to get another transmission or system called the cvt transmisson, they actually did change the transmisson and after that it was working well but wasn't satisfied with it, it started loosing power and there's times when it doesn't want to accelerate and I have to push my foot all the way in which is scary because there's times where it just throws me off since I have no idea when it wants to accelerate like a normal car. Overall, they changed the cvt transmisson and I felt that it got worst and now I just don't feel comfortable with this car, I don't feel safe with it but the sad part is that I'm still paying for the car.

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

The car began to violently shake, was unable to accelerate while on the highway. Car rpms increased the car did not move. Traffic rapidly approaching behind me.dealership has informed me of transmission issue needs to be replaced. No warning sign, no check engine light forced to pull over at night on the side of the road.

- Ipswich, MA, USA

Vehicle in notion on city streets. Vehicle looses acceleration (gas peddle pressed, no rpms, no engine revving) would have to release gas and press peddle again a couple times before car would jerk into acceleration. Also, break lights flicker when car is in park (like if someone was tapping the breaks, but nobody was in the car. Car has roughly 66K miles

- Crest Hill, IL, USA

While traveling on I-95 in miami at 55 mph, my car suddenly stopped accelerating and wouldn't pass 20 mph. I pushed down on the gas peddle and nothing would happen. I was extremely lucky to be on the middle lane and quickly shifted over to the far right on the emergency lane and turned off the car. I turned it back in and it worked fine. I didn't use the car for two days, and then when I tried again, it was giving the same issue where the car wouldn't accelerate and was making a weird noise which I never expierned before. I took to my trusted mechanic and he advised it was a cvt issue. I had to get the car towed to a certified Nissan dealership as Nissan agreed to consider possible financial assistance. Upon completion it was confirmed it was a cvt transmission issue and it would cost about $5,000 to repair with labor costs. Nissan has to given me back my car and it's now the 20th of February. My car has 99,450 miles, and has been in excellent condition with my maintenance. It's scary and unfortunate that we have been sold a defective car and Nissan won't admit to it. There's a class action lawsuit open and still in court. I got an attorney involved who has taken up my case for further action against Nissan. Consumer should be advised to stop driving this car asap! I am now looking to get a new car as I don't feel safe anymore driving this and I need a reliable and safe vehicle for work.

Stalling when I am driving along the highway. I have to tap the gas twice for it to start back.

- Carlisle, SC, USA

Car is not shifting into gears right RPM is everywhere an hiting shifts really hard

- Corpus Christi, TX, USA

Random and sudden loss of acceleration as various speeds on multiple occasions

- Cleveland, TN, USA

The vehicle was in motion at 65 mph on the expressway in heavy traffic. It steadily began to decelerate, giving no warning, with no lights on the dash or noises. As I attempted to accelerate, the vehicle would not respond to accelerator pedal input, and I had traffic moving at a very high speed and was almost hit by another car attempting to get onto the very slim shoulder at low speed. The car had 74,000 miles on it at the time of the incident, and had excellent care taken of it, including its recommended maintenance. It was purchased brand new in December 2012, and I am the only owner. It was towed to the dealership, where I was told I was out of the 60,000 mile warranty. Initially quoted $4500 just to get the car back in working order, it took Nissan Consumer Affairs two weeks to arrive at a figure just short of $1100 to get my car running again. A transmission should not fail in a vehicle at all, let alone one that new, especially considering the level of care that it was given. This is a potentially very serious safety issue, as I almost had nowhere safe to pull over. If this had been the multi-lane highway I was on minutes before, I may have not been over to reach the shoulder and could have been hit or involved in a serious accident. Upon doing some research I found this issue has been encountered by a large number of Nissan owners with continuous variable transmissions and the company has done little or nothing about it, and have attempted to minimize the problem. By extending "financial assistance" down to $1100, in my view, they are admitting guilt as to this problem, as companies do not give money away. I feel cheated, and now do not feel safe driving the vehicle I had paid $21,000 not very long ago.

My 2013 Sentra it began to jerk and lose power while driving. The car revs up to 5000rpms went back down to between 3000 and 4000rpms. I drove to the nearest auto shop aamco. The mechanic said to see if it was under warranty. He said there were known problems with the cvt. We drove home and I called Nissan (8883880318) and spoke to a representative. He asked for the VIN and told me there was a "campaign" on this car. I asked him was a campaign and a recall the same thing, he said they were the same, different words.. he told me the cvt needed to be reprogrammed. He gave me a dealership. I called, made an appointment for 9:00am this morning. We took the car in, was told the car had been reprogrammed. We drove away from the dealership, got about one block and the car began to jerk and lose power like before. We turned around and went back to the dealership. I told the representative the car was still jerking and losing power. She said I would have to pay $99 for a diagnostic test. I did not pay for the test because the Nissan representative on the phone told me the repair would be at no charge. When we got home, I called Nissan, again. I was told I could not talk to the representative I talked to yesterday. This time, I was told there was no warranty left because I had 82,000 miles on the car. He told me the warranty stopped at 60,000 miles. I told him the representative I spoke to yesterday told me it was covered and I had looked online and Nissan had added to the warranty to 10 years or 120,000 miles. He said that is not for my car and I could join a class action lawsuit. I told him I don't want to join a class action lawsuit, I need my car repaired. Please hold Nissan accountable to fix these unsafe cars, because, Nissan knows there is a wide spread problem with the cvt's. this is unfair.

- Lancaster, KY, USA

When driving my car on the highway or city streets, I lose speed and can't use pedal to accelerate to pick up any speed.car won't go pass 20 mph.

- Inglewood, CA, USA

My vehicle has had ongoing issues with acceleration and the rpms going past what it should under normal circumstances. This issue occurs specifically when I accelerate. On January 21, 2018, as I was merging on to the highway trying to accelerate, my speed would not increase initially and my rpms were past 5. this is extremely dangerous and concerning as I was told by Nissan that my transmission is in proper working order after having been replaced once already. My car doesn't function properly and I went to a transmission specialist who also said that my transmission is slipping. I presented this information to the Nissan specialist who stated it wasn't and it is fine. However, I've had instances where the vehicle does not operate the way it should under normal conditions and prior to having transmission problems.

- Hyannis, MA, USA

Car has only 13,987 original miles. While accelerating from a stop, accelerating from any speed, vehicle loses all throttle control / response, idle may hang at 3200 suddenly during acceleration then take 30-40 seconds to drop back to normal. You may or may not have warning lights and/or fault codes set. Transmission shifting is erratic or none at all (stays in high gear). Fault codes if any are most likely electrical circuit, low voltage type codes. Warning lights may be traction / stability control, check engine, ABS in any combination. The fault is moisture (water / condensation) collecting in a tail light and shorting the circuit which is connected to the engine / transmission electronics. The tail light may not have any sign of damage / cracks / holes but the water presence causing the short can damage or destroy the transmission if not corrected not to mention the possibility of an accident due to a stuck throttle at 3200 RPM in traffic. Nissan is aware of this issue but has no recall at this time (waiting for the accidents I guess)

- Cypress, TX, USA

Takata recall, I have had my vehicle for two years and every couple months while idling it will turn off. After turning off the car won't go over 15 miles per hour. I have taken the vehicle in and no one can give me an answer. It's has happened in the middle of busy roads and I am lucky I have been hurt yet. Please check this out for me thanks.
