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.

2013 Nissan Sentra only 5 months old with 7000 feel like a 20 year old car. Every time I hit the brake to slow down, I hear squeaking noise and feel like the pads are grinding, I will have to take it to the dealer to have it checked out. Oh and you can't lift you wiper blades because the hood is in the way. How the heck are you suppose to clean you windshield or replace wiper blades. A/C goes on when you change to defrost or recirculation and you have to manually disengage when changing modes. Should have went with the corolla.
