2013 Nissan Sentra (Page 1 of 3)
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.

CVT acts up or fails when under hard acceleration at highway speeds, accelerating with the cruise control is useless as car surges forward and back. Using sport mode helps, and low speeds seem to be ok for now. But I want the eco mode when highway driving...but you will have trouble with a fast pass unless you switch to sport. This will be the first and last CVT I ever own.
