The CVT can cause the car to shake, judder, stall during sudden acceleration, or completely lose power. My car jurked and stop completely while at a turning signal in the middle of the street. This was cause by the recall on their cvt. I-??ve called a Nissan dealer and they said they can-??t fix the recall problem for free because my car is over 80,000 miles. No it hasn-??t been inspected. Yes my car has been jurking for the last past month. I-??ve been called Nissan about it but they said i had to pay $210 for diagnostic even tho the problem was the transmission recall. The car will not drive foward or backwards. It-??ll start up but that-??s just about it. Now I have no transportation to go to work or doctors appointments.
I am writing to express my concerns regarding the performance of the transmission in my Nissan 2018 Nissan Sentra. Recently, I have encountered my car stopped accelerating and only able to drive backwards. I had a few transmission, shifting problems, jerking which has raised concerns about the overall reliability and safety of the vehicle. I understand your concern about Nissan transmissions. If you wish to address this issue with Nissan, I recommend following a formal and respectful approach.

Consumer Affairs Department P.O. Box 685003 Franklin, TN 37068-5003 Subject: Request for Investigation and Potential Recall of Nissan Transmission Issues Dear Nissan North America, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns regarding the performance of the transmission in my Nissan [Model and Year]. Recently, I have encountered [specific issues with the transmission, e.g., shifting problems, jerking, etc.], which has raised concerns about the overall reliability and safety of the vehicle. I have conducted some research and have come across several instances of similar transmission issues reported by Nissan owners. It appears that a significant number of vehicles may be experiencing similar problems, indicating a potential systemic issue with the transmissions. Given the importance of vehicle safety and the trust that consumers place in Nissan products, I am urging you to investigate these transmission issues thoroughly. If necessary, I kindly request that Nissan consider a recall to address and rectify the reported problems.
My car was hesitant to start i called the recalls line and i let the nissan lot know that my car had recall on the break switch which is connected to my gears, i never received a notice informing me about this issue so when i let the lot know they told me nothing was wrong, after driving it again it wouldnt start i took it to the lot and they said its my transmission and break switch battery ect. I am requesting that my car get repair for free for recall service i dont feel i should have to pay $8000 for service repair more then one nissan sentra has had transmission problems in the last year
My 2018 Nissan Sentra is currently in the shop at my local Nissan dealership because it needs a transmission replacement. The car lurched ahead causing me to run into my garage door causing damage. It also while driving loses power, the rpm meter will drop for a few seconds and you will see and feel it re engage a few seconds later. It does this frequently at various speeds.

My vehicle has always given me problems with the automatic brake and when I took it to the dealership they responded with oh yeah we already knew about that rather than giving me some kind of directions towards where I can fix it. My car has problem speeding it feels like it's lost it's power. I service my vehicle at the dealership. I replace anything the car needs. This vehicle isn't old and should not be giving me any mechanical issues. I also don't have any lights on my dash board but the car jerks. I hate this car. Ive taken good care of it and literally all it's given me is problem after problem. I still owe ten grand on it and for what" for junk" I thought about buying another vehicle with Nissan but if this is the vehicle you guys are making, unreliable, fragile, and unsafe; I don't want it. Also side note I took the car to a mechanic and there is nothing wrong with it according to him and it still gives me these issues with the jerking, the rph going up and down while the mph isn't. my vehicle doesn't have a recall but the automatic brake has never worked. Unbelievable.
