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.

Suspension parts started to go out around 70k miles. Needed to replace wheel bearings, axle, control arms around 70k, rear shocks, springs around 80k. Felt like I was driving a car built of paper. Always did my best to avoid potholes so no extreme impacts to suspension.
