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.
When accelerating onto freeway under wide open throttle, the engine would squeak/chirp loudly when it fake shifts. Could duplicate by revving the motor. Took to Dealer. Said could not duplicate. Went for ride with technician, confirmed noise exists. Revved motor while tech listened to engine. Diagnosis was the Alternator bearing was squeaking. Replaced alternator. Still had same problem. Traded car for 2015 Altima.
