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.

2017 Nissan Sentra Owner Comments

problem #1

Sep 142017

Sentra SV

  • Automatic transmission
  • 500 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

I purchased a brand new Nissan sentra on 9/5/2017

A static-like noise came out whenever I moving steering wheel to the right.

I brought the car to a dealership to be diagnosed and repaired. The mechanic noticed the noise but could not figured out how the problem came out.

I called the service center of Nissan USA to get help. It is ridiculous that a Nissan representative called me once with no solution or suggestion and then the representative cannot be reached anymore

As a result, the problem is left unsolvable

I just want to let everyone know about my bad experience and not to buy Nissan anymore
