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.

My transmission failed at 83,500 miles and 2 months over the 7 year birthday since manufacture date. Warranty is 84,000 miles or 7 years whichever comes first. I’ve had the car since 11/2018 and had problems with the trans slipping the entire time. I had it towed to Nissan and they said it was fine. I KNEW I had trans problems the entire time and because Nissan “relies on their dealers word”, they won’t help with sh*t. Still owe $6K on a car with a blown trans and nobody wants to help. THIS CAR ROYALLY SCREWED ME
