CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013-2017 Nissan Sentra has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data from the earlier model years in this same 7th generation Sentra.

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.

I bought a brand new 2015 Nissan Sentra 03/03/2016 and I am starting to have problems with it, I am noticing as I turn corners that my car will slow down to almost a crawl and then pick back up speed. I have contacted dealer informed to bring it in tomorrow. I will keep you updated
