2013 Nissan Sentra Engine Problems

transmission problems that don't show up on diagnostic.. it shows up as air sensor problem. That could cost a lot of money if you listen to it...by keep trying to fix the air sensor that has no problem so you will go to auto machines and dealership and they don't know why and keep tell you to fix this or that. The real problem is the transmission. the system fails by not tell you the real problem and have a malfunctioned transmission with the the wiring inside.

Perdi mi trabajo porque el carro se descompuso

PURCHASED OUR 2013 NISSAN SENTRA SV IN MAY, 2016. IT CAME WITH A 7 YEAR CPO, EXPIRATION MAY 30, 2020. WITHIN 3 MONTHS OF PURCHASE I HAD WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A SHIFTING/TRANSMISSION RELATED ISSUE. WHEN GOING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR THE CAR TACHOMETER WOULD REV TO 4500 RPM BUT NUT GO ANY FASTER, THEN SHAKE/THUNK, AND GO INTO 2ND GEAR. FROM THAT TIME UNTIL APRIL, 2020, I WENT IN TO 4 SEPARATE NISSAN DEALERSHIPS IN 2 STATES WITH THIS PROBLEM. EACH ONE SAID THEY WOULD NOT LOOK AT THE VEHICLE BECAUSE NISSAN SAID THEY WOULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM UNTIL THE TRANSMISSION STOPS WORKING. IN APRIL, 2020, MY LAST VISIT, I EXPLAINED A NEW PROBLEM OCCURRED. THE CAR COULD NOT MAINTAIN 65 MILES PER HOUR WITHOUT GOING INTO OVERDRIVE OR A HIGHER GEAR, AND WAS SHIFTING MULTIPLE TIMES INTO MULTIPLE GEARS. BUT STILL NOTHING WOULD BE DONE BY NISSAN AS THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT FAIL. THEN, ON JULY 22, 2020, THE TRANSMISSION STUCK IN 2ND TWICE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND EXPLAINED MY SITUATION. A CASE SHEET WAS DEVELOPED AND I SENT IN INFORMATION TO THEM. 8 DAYS LATER THEY CALLED ME BACK AND SAID MY CPO WARRANTY ENDED END OF MAY, 2020, SO THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WOULD DO. BY THE WAY, MY CASE SHEET NUMBER WAS 40830236. TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED THIS WEEK COSTING US OVER $4000. VERY, VERY FRUSTRATED. I KNOW OUR CPO ENDED END OF MAY, 2020. BUT NISSAN REFUSED TO LOOK AT TRANSMISSION UNTIL TOTAL FAILURE. I AM SENDING YOU COPIES OF OUR TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT BILL, A COPY FROM NISSAN NOTING TRANSMISSION NEEDING REPLACEMENT, AND OUR CPO WARRANTY. THANKS FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE US.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT 120,000 MILES AND HAVE DRIVEN IT TO 139,000. I STARTED NOTICING MY TRANSMISSION STALLING AND I REVIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL A COUPLE TIMES REGARDING MY TRANSMISSION BEING RECALLED. I UNFORTUNATELY DON'T HAVE THE LETTER ANYMORE REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION.

WHEN DRIVING THIS CAR IT CONSTANTLY JERKS WHEN COMING TO A STOP. IT ALSO JERKS WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS GOING DOWN A HILL. LAST WEEK WHEN DRIVING TO WORK I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BREAK AND THE ENGINE REVVED AND THE RPM NEEDLE FLEW UP AND GOT STUCK. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING IN A CAR THAT IS JUST BARELY 7 YEARS OLD. I AM ALSO HAVING ACCELERATION PROBLEMS SO I GET TO ENDURE THE FEAR OF NOT KNOWING IF THE CAR WILL GO WHEN I HIT THE GAS. I'VE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IN THIS CAR IS THE WORST TRANSMISSION EVER MADE. WONDERFUL NEWS. SO NOW MY CHOICES ARE TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, ON TOP OF THE ALREADY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS I AM STILL PAYING ON THE CAR, TO GET A NEW TRANSMISSION OR BE TERRIFIED EVERYTIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL OF MY CAR THAT I WON'T MAKE IT TO MY DESTINATION. YOU HAVE MADE A VEHICLE THAT IS OF POOR QUALITY AND NOT WORTH THE MONEY YOU ARE EXPECTING PEOPLE TO PAY. YOUR CAR IS UNSAFE FOR THE ROAD. I PRAY THAT I AM CAPABLE ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE CLEARLY INEVITABLE MECHANICAL ISSUES THAT WILL UNDOUBTEDLY HAPPEN AS I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS CAR. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES.

THE CAR GOES INTO A LIMP MODE. CANNOT ACCELERATE PAST 20MPH. MECHANIC DETERMINED MY TRANSMISSION IS BAD. QUOTED $4,000 TO REPAIR. CAR HAS 87, 511 MILES. SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY OTHER CARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT AN ODOR OF FUEL WAS SOMETIMES PERCEIVED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A NISSAN DEALER LOCATED IN COLLEGE PARK, MARYLAND, WHERE TWO CODES POPPED UP: P0456 AND P101. THE VENT CONTROL VALVE SEAL-O-RING 16618-JF00A WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 67,000.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM A USED DEALERSHIP. I HAVE A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA THAT HAS THE EXACT SAME ISSUES AS THE NISSAN VEHICLES FROM 2010-2012. MY TRANSMISSION FEELS AS IF IT IS SLIPPING, JERKING, SHUDDERING AND DOES NOT GAIN ACCELERATION SMOOTHLY. IF I ACCELERATE AT ALL, MY TRANSMISSION WILL JERK. IF I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE, IT WILL STALL AND FEELS AS IF IT IS NOT GETTING ANY GAS AND THE TRANSMISSION JERKS. IF I AM ON A STREET THAT IS NOT BUSY DRIVING UNDER 40 IF MY RPM GETS OVER 1, IT WILL JERK AND FEEL AS IF IT IS GOING TO SHUT OFF. WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGHER SPEEDS OF 40, IF THE RPM INCREASES AT ALL, MY VEHICLE JERKS AND FEELS AS IF IT IS NOT GETTING ENOUGH GAS. I TOOK MY CAR TO FIRESTONE ON 1/10/20 AND THEY DETERMINED THAT IT IS INDEED THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I HAD 0 CODES APPEAR. I HAVE THE DOCUMENT FROM FIRESTONE THAT REFLECTS THAT I HAVE NO OTHER ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE. I WAS ADVISED BY FIRESTONE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN 1/10/20 THE SAME DAY AND WAS TOLD THE EXACT SAME THING, HOWEVER THE RECALL DOES NOT APPLY TO THE YEAR OF MY VEHICLE, BUT I HAVE THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS THE PREVIOUS YEAR MANUFACTURED VEHICLES. I ALSO HAVE DOCUMENTATION FOR THIS AS WELL. THEY RAN A FULL DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND FOUND 0 CODES. I KEEP MY VEHICLE IN GOOD CONDITION AND WELL KEPT AND SERVICE IS UP TO DATE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, THE CAR JERKS AS IF STRUGGLING TO SWITCH GEARS. OFTEN WHEN I PRESS THE GAS, THE CAR FAILS TO GO FASTER AND IT SOUNDS AS IF I AM JUST TRYING THE ENGINE

THE RPM IN MY NISSAN SENTRA 2013 STARTED TO FLUCTUATE WHILE DRIVING IT WASN'T DOING IT TOO MUCH AT FIRST BUT NOW IT DOES IT CONTINUOUSLY AND IT'S SO ANNOYING WHEN I'M DRIVING I TOOK IT TO MY NEAREST NISSAN LOCATION AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND THAT I HAVE TO GET IT REPLACED WHICH SUCKS BECAUSE IT' JUST REACHED 100K MILES I HAVE ALWAYS HAD GREAT MAINTENANCE WITH IT I DON'T WANT TO PAY ALMOST 5K FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION WHEN THE MILEAGE ISN'T EVEN SUPER HIGH, I DID MY RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE EXACT MODEL AND MAKE AND WITH NEWER NISSANS TOO WITH LOWER MILEAGE SO IT'S JUST NOT FAIR I LOVE MY NISSAN SENTRA BUT THIS IS JUST NOT FAIR I REALLY BELIEVE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL FOR THESE CARS WITH HORRIBLE TRANSMISSION DEFECTS. PLEASE PLEASE NISSAN LOOK INTO THIS

TAKATA RECALL WHEN I FIRST STEP IN THE CAR TO TAKE A TEST DROVE, IT SEEM LIKE IT WAS OK . IT DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM BUT WHEN I DROVE IT HOME , ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE AND IT TOOK ABOUT 60 SECOND FOR THE GEAR TO SWITCH. THE CAR SEEN AS THOUGHT IT WAS OVERHEATING WHEN I HAVEN'T EVEN DROVE IT LONG . I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HE SAID “ I WAS COVERED WITH WARRANTY “ AND THAT “I WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT PAYING ANYTHING.” HE GAVE ME A LOAN CAR AND HAVE BEEN EXTENDED IT FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS BECAUSE MY CAR STILL HAVEN'T BEEN FIX YET . I ALSO FOUND THAT MY CAR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BY THE WARRANT BUSINESS BECAUSE THEY SAID THE CAR WASN'T IN GOOD CONDITION WHEN I BROUGHT IT. THEY DENIED THE REQUEST OF FIXING THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER REFUSES TO GIVE ME ANOTHER TEMP TAG AND TOLD ME TO LEAVE HIM PREMISES. I HAVE BEEN PAYING ON A CAR THAT I HAVE NOT HAD FOR TWO MONTHS AND I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS AN UNJUST SITUATION. I HOPE THAT THE OTHER CUSTOMERS AREN’T GETTING TREATED LIKE MYSELF .

'TAMARA RECALL' I WAS DRIVING WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY CAR STARTED JERKING AND THE SPEEDOMETER WAS RACING UP AND DOWN, I WENT TO PULL OUT ON THE HIGHWAY AND WAS NEARLY HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK BECAUSE THE CAR HAD LOST POWER AND WOULDN'T GO OVER 5 MPH. THE TRUCK HAD TO SWERVE TO KEEP FROM HITTING ME. THIS CAR HAS A FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE OFF THE ROAD. IT HAPPENS WITH NO WARNING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WOULD COST $5000 TO FIX THAT I DON'T HAVE. AND I STILL OWE $10,000 ON THE CAR.

I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WAITING AND SUDDENLY MY CAR TURNED OFF.. IT TURNED RIGHT ON. THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS.

STALLING WITHOUT WARNING SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A STOP INTERMITTANT HAS OCCURRED FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS. NISSAN DEALER UNABLE TO CORRECT PROBLEM AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS 'NO FAULT FOUND, UNABLE TO DUPLICATE COMPLAINT'. EGI HARRNESS REPLACED NO CHANGE IN 2016.

BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM DEALER IN AUGUST 2018 ONLY 6 MONTHS AGO I HEARD A NOISE BUT THE DEALER SAID THAT ALL THE CARS MAKE THAT NOISE THE NOISE HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND I KNOW IT IS A ROD BEARING ANOTHER MECHANIC CONFIRMED THAT BUT DEALER REFUSES TO EVEN DROP THE OIL PAN AND CHECK THE ROD BEARINGS NOISE IS GETTING WORSE BRAD FENTON MOTORS IN ARDMORE OKLAHOMA IS WHERE I TOOK IT TOO. THE NOISE IS WORSE WHEN ENGINE IS COLD AND GETS LESS NOISY WHEN WARM. I SIGNED TO CANCEL MY WARRANTY BUT THE NEVER FINISHED IT HOPING FOR A RESOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM.

ENGINE CUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY AFTER PULLING OFF ROAD WHEN IT STALLS, MAY ALSO STALL COMING TO A STOP WITHOUT WARNING, SYMPTOMS OCCUR RANDOMLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL FIVE STAR NISSAN DEALER LOCATED AT 839 WARREN DR, WARNER ROBINS, GA 31088 WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CVT WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 8,000. *TT *TR

MY CAR HAS AROUND 78000 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY DIED AND I NEED A NEW ONE. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL MECHANICS THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND NORMALLY TRANSMISSION SHOULD LAST AT LEAST 10 YEARS. IT HAS BEEN 4... I AM EXTREMELY UPSET SINCE I OWE 10,000 ON THE CAR.

TAKATA RECALL. DRIVING FROM HOME FROM A ROAD TRIP, I STOPPED TO GET GAS ABOUT 300 MILES FROM HOME WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN TRYING TO LEAVE THE GAS STATION TO GET BACK ON HE INTERSTATE! IM FURIOUS IVE ONLY HAD THIS 2013 NISSAN SENTRA SR FOR 3 GOING ON FOUR YEARS AND TO HEAR THAT MY TRANSMISSION HAS TO BE REPLACED IS RIDICULOUS!! IVE ONLY OWNED NISSANS AND FOR MY TRANSMISSION TO GO OUT ON ME IN SUCH A SHORT TIME IS TERRIBLE. THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS NEED TO REPLACED ASAP. I CAN NOT COME OUT OF POCKET $4,500 TO REPLACE THIS TRANSMISSION, THE SAD PART IS I STILL OWE ON THE CAR!! HELP, PLEASE.

MY CAR DOSE NOT ACCELERATE RIGHT SINCE A MONTH AGO. CAR WENT DEALER 3TIMES. 1ST TIME , I GO TO DEALER WITH RECALL LETTER ABOUT CVT. THEN PROBLEM STILL DO IT. 3DAYS LATER,THEY DID TEST DRIVE AND REPROGRAM FOR TRANSMISSION,,,,, STILL HAD PROBLEM. 2DAYS LATER ,AGAIN 3RD TIME TO GO DEALER. THEY GAVE TO ME CAR WITH NO PROBLEM. THAT'S NISSAN TOLD US. IT DOESN'T DO EVERY TIME,YET. BUT IT FEELS OLD CAR. I COULD NOT GO AFTER STOP LIGHT ,COULD NOT GO OVER 2000X WHILE RUNNING SOMETIMES. I STILL HAVE PAYMENT,TOO.THEY SHOULD CHANGE CAR OR CHANGE SOMETHING.

MY SON WAS DRIVING THRU A INTERSECTION THAT IS WHEN THE CAR STALLED OUT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE MACHANIC AND BEEN TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. TWO WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AND ONCE AGAIN TOOK IT BACK INTO THE MECHANIC. I JUST GOT IT BACK AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW THE CAR KEEPS ACTING LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT. DON'T GET ME WRONG THE PEOPLE AT THE MECHANIC SHOP ARE NICE. BUT AFTER MY GOOGLE SEARCH TODAY I AM GLAD I JUST HOPE THAT WITH THESE ISSUES SOMETHING IS DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I SHOULDN'T BE SCARED THAT MY SON GOES PLACES AND I HAVE TO WORRY THAT HE MAY HAVE A CAR ACCIDENT.

AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR BEGAN TO JERK. I COULD NOT GAIN ANY SPEED AND ALMOST CAUSE TWO ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THE WAY IT JERKED. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 15 AS WE LEFT SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA. IN THE CAR WAS MY ADULT DAUGHTER AND MY TWO GRANDDAUGHTERS, AGES 1 1/2 AND 10 MONTHS. I WAS AHEAD OF HER IN OUR NISSAN PATHFINDER. SHE CALLED MY PHONE AND SAID THAT THE CAR RPM'S WERE FLUCTUATING AND THAT THE CAR WASN'T GOING TO MAKE IT HOME TO TWENTYNINE PALMS. WE PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY IN ESCONDIDO. I CHECKED THE SENTRA AND FOUND THAT IN IDLE AND PARK THAT THE ENGINE RAN FINE. WHEN I DROVE THE CAR, IT WAS LURCHING LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WASN'T SHIFTING CORRECTLY. AFTER CHECKING THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, I DROVE TO A WELL LITE PARKING LOT AND WHILE THE FAMILY ATE, I CALLED AAA AND HAD THE SENTRA TOWED TO MOSSY NISSAN OF ESCONDIDO. ON MONDAY THE 22ND, MY WIFE CALLED MOSSY NISSAN AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED. THEY CALLED HER BACK SAYING THAT IT WASN'T THE TRANSMISSION, THAT A SENSOR HAD BEEN TAKEN OFF OF THE MANIFOLD BY HER HUSBAND OR OUR MECHANIC. SHE ASSURED THEM THAT SINCE THE CAR WAS ONLY 13 MONTHS OLD AND UNDER WARRANTY, NO MECHANIC HAD WORKED ON THE CAR AND THAT I HAD ONLY DONE THE OIL CHANGES, BUT HAD NOT WORKED ON THE ENGINE. MOSSY NISSAN SAID THAT THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY SINCE THE SENSOR IN THE MANIFOLD WAS REMOVED. I CALLED MOSSY NISSAN AND TOLD THEM THAT I HAD NOT WORKED ON THE ENGINE, THAT NO MECHANIC HAD WORKED ON THE ENGINE AND THAT THE SENSOR HAD TO HAVE FALLEN OFF THE CAR WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IT ON THE FREEWAY. THEY REFERRED ME TO NISSAN USA, WHICH SAID THE SAME THING; THAT SINCE THE SENSOR WAS MISSING, THEY HAD NOTHING TO TURN IN FOR WARRANTY, SO THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY. THE PRICE TO REPAIR THE CAR WAS OVER $700, AS THEY SAID I NEEDED A COMPLETE MANIFOLD WITH THE SENSOR ATTACHED. AFTER REPEATED CALLS, MOSSY NOW SAID THAT MY CAR WILL BE REPAIRED BY 1/17/15 AND THE PRICE WILL BE UNDER $500 BECAUSE I HAD TO WAIT FOR A PART FROM THE FACTORY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65.

I WAS TURNING AND DROVE THRU A INTERSECTION THAT IS WHEN MY CAR STALLED OUT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SHIP AND BEEN TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. TWO WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AND ONCE AGAIN TOOK IT BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP. I JUST GOT IT BACK ON FRIDAY AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW THE CAR KEEPS ACTING LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT. DON'T GET ME WRONG THE PEOPLE AT THE DEALERSHIP ARE NICE, BUT AFTER MY GOOGLE SEARCH TODAY I AM GLAD (NOT REALLY GLAD SAD TO SEE THIS IS A PROBLEM BUT I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO CRAZY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY) TO SEE THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM SO WHEN I GO IN TOMORROW I HAVE SEVERAL THINGS TO TALK TO NISSAN ABOUT. I JUST HOPE THAT WITH THESE ISSUES SOMETHING IS DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I SHOULDN'T BE SCARED TO TAKE MY KIDS PLACES IN MY CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ENGINE RPMS INCREASED EXCESSIVELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED ON 12/31/2013, WITH 22 MILES SHOWING ON THE ODOMETER. APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS LATER, WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR ENGINE CUTS OFF, I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND RESTART WITHOUT FURTHER PROBLEM. THE ENGINE HAS STOPPED THREE OTHER TIMES SINCE THEN, THE OTHERS WERE WHILE IDLING AND DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25-30MPH.I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT, BUT THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE, BUT AFTER THE FOURTH TIME, I'M A BIT AFRAID THAT THIS WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN AND PROBABLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.HOW DO I BEGIN TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM WITH NISSAN? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, A BURNING ODOR WAS PRESENT. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO CHECK UNDER THE HOOD AND DISCOVERED THAT THE ENGINE WAS ON FIRE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT CAUSED THE FIRE. NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE CONTACT FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE MANUFACTURER REGARDING THE FIRE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,110.

I HAVE ALSO BEEN EXPERIENCING THE LOUD GRINDING NOISE FROM THE REAR BRAKES. I TOOK THE CAR IN TODAY FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE AND SHOWED THE TECHNICIAN THE ISSUE. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE A/C NOT COOLING. THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF TIMES WHILE DRIVING WHEN THE A/C STARTS TO BLOW WARM AIR FOR A LONG TIME AND THEN RANDOMLY STARTS TO COOL AGAIN. HOPEFULLY THE DEALERSHIP CAN GET IT FIXED WITHOUT CAUSING ANY ADDITIONAL GRIEF! THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN LESS THAN 5,000 MILES! *TR

WHEN I AM STOPPED AT A LIGHT, THE CAR SEEMS TO CREEP FORWARD WHEN BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED. I NEED TO CONTINUALLY APPLY MORE PRESSURE AND THE PEDAL BECOMES SPONGY. ALSO, I NOW NOTICE THAT WHEN STOPPED OR GOING SLOW, ENGINE FUMES ARE COMING FROM MY AIR/HEATING VENTS. DON'T KNOW IF ITS EXHAUST OR AN OIL LEAK SOMEWHERE. CAR ONLY HAS 400 MILES ON IT AND I'VE HAD CAR SINCE END OF FEBRUARY 2013. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE ON 4/6 HEADED TO SC AT 5 AM WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO DECELERATE BY ITSELF. WITH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR THE CAR WOULD NOT GO PAST 45. THEN SUDDENLY IT WILL TAKE OFF. THE CAR DOES THIS AT RANDOM AND IT CANNOT BE DETECTED ON THE COMPUTER ACCORDING TO NISSAN. FRIDAY NIGHT THE CAR DID THE SAME THING. THIS TIME WAS WORST AND I WAS IN TRAFFIC WITH PEOPLE BEHIND ME. AS I STARTED TO PULL OFF FROM THE LIGHT THE CAR WOULD NOT GO PAST 25. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE FLASHERS ON PRAYED THAT I DID NOT GET HIT FROM BEHIND. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AND I AM CURRENTLY PAYING FOR A RENTAL BECAUSE NISSAN LITHIA SPRINGS REFUSED TO GIVE ME A RENTAL OR LOANER. I AM VERY DISTRESSED ABOUT THIS CAR. NISSAN LITHIA SPRINGS SAID THEY WOULD TRADE ME OUT THE CAR BUT WANTED TO TREAT IT AS A TRADE. WHY WOULD I PAY FOR TWO CARS WHEN MY SENTRA IS OBVIOUSLY A LEMON. I AM OTALLY FRUSTRATED I HAVE A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE AND KNOW ONE SEEMS TO CARE. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED ON 3/18. WENT TO SERVICE 4/8 PICKED UP 4/9 THEY SAID THAT IT WAS A IDLE PROGRAM. RETURNED TO SERVICE 4/11 AND WAS PICKED UP 4/24. I TOOK THE CAR BACK ON 4/26 AND IT IS STILL THERE. I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY DON'T RETURN PHONE CALLS OR EMAILS.

I PURCHASE THIS AS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE LAST MONTH FROM A NISSAN DEALER. TODAY MORNING WHEN I LEFT HOME AT 5:40AM THE TEMPERATURE WAS AROUND 25F AND WHEN I SWITCHED ON THE CAR AND PULLED IT TO THE DRIVE MODE SUDDENLY THE ENGINE STOPPED BY ITSELF. I THEN PULLED IT BACK IN THE PARKING GEAR AND REIGNED THE ENGINE AND LEFT HOME. I REACHED OUTSIDE MY HOUSE STOPPED TO TAKE A LEFT TURN AND THE CAR STOPPED AGAIN! I FEEL SCARED DRIVING THIS CAR NOW ON FREEWAY AS I FEEL IT MAY STOP ANYTIME AND I MIGHT GET INTO A BIG CRASH. THERE IS A RECALL LETTER I RECEIVED ON THIS CAR YESTERDAY AND IT SAID THE FIRST PROBLEM I STATED ABOVE WHEN THE CAR IS MOVED FROM P TO D SOMETIMES IT STOPS BUT NOT THAT IT WOULD EVER STOP WHILE IN MOTION WHICH IS VERY VERY SCARY. I HOPE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HELP ME AND ANY OTHER OWNERS OF THIS CAR. THANKS. *TR

TOOK OFF FROM A STOP SIGN AND MY CAR STALLED. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN AND IT RAN FINE. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME, BUT THE OTHERS WERE WHEN IT WAS PRETTY COLD OUTSIDE AND I DEEMED THAT THE REASON FOR THE STALL. NOW I BELIEVE IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING MORE. *TR
