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.

I bought a 2014 Nissan Sentra about 2= months ago they said that the cvt and transmission was faulty and they will not repair it and there are a lot of complaints and recalls on this matter. I still owe 12000 on this car and I am not paying 6000 or something I didn't cause. I am paying for a car that I cant drive.
The engine light has been on/off for over a year. I have had it "fix". code kept saying massair sensor. Last week I took it in again and they put on an updated clip. And told me the transmission was failing. So I did research and learned that some cars have recalls on this and would be covered til 120,000 miles. They said my VIN was not covered. If this is an universal issues why is it not covered.
Cvt transmission failed, needed replaced after 95,000 miles. The car started shifting hard from a stop and between gears. Four different mechanics, included a Nissan technician, all agreed that it was a bad cvt transmission. Nissan technician looked up extended warranty, which was offered on 2007-2010 models, but has not yet been extended to newer models and therefore could not be applied to my car. I just spent $3800 to get the transmission replaced on a 3 1/2 year old car.
While driving the car does not accelerate right, it shifts, it "lulls" it hesitates, I have an issue trying to accelerate fast enough at stop lights and driving on the merge ramps from the highway I drive everyday to work. At times it feels like as shifting gears, it quickly shifts to another gear or like I mentioned above, there is a ""hesitation" between shift gears.
After starting my engine, shifting my car in drive and moving forward, I hear a weird noise and my car kicks back a little before moving forward. Please help?

Tamara recall I own a 2014 Nissan Sentra and about a week ago I was driving home from work on the freeway. I was slowing down because there was a construction zone coming up when all of the sudden my engine shuts off in the middle of the freeway. I had no control of the breaks I had to use the E break before I caused a pile up. I have tried to contact Nissan but I have had no luck.

While driving 65 mph with cruise control on, the cruise control cut out and my car started slowing down. I depressed the gas pedal but the car continued to slow down to about 45 mph, then started slowly gaining speed. After work, I drove home without incident. Next day was foggy so not using cruise control. Vehicle slowed down again from 60 mph down to about 45 mph. Also got no response when depressing gas pedal. This time the traction control light on the dashboard came on. Drove home after work without incident. I had gotten the oil changed the day before the first incident happened. I had no previous problems prior to that. The issue seems to have resolved itself as the car is running fine now. If it occurs again, I'll have it checked out.
