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.
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 took it to dealer and they put a new valve body in and reprogramed the trans but mpg is still falling. At the dealer mpg was 35.2 and now it's 31.8. Before all this I got 38.0 to 41.0 mpg and on a trip last year I got 44.9 - I wonder what happened. I guess they forgot to tell the car it was fixed.
