CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013-2017 Nissan Sentra has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data.

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.

I am having two problems with the ABS system on my 2013 Nissan Sentra sv. On three occasions the ABS system shut off the brakes completely at low speed on slippery roads. While testing the car to reproduced the above condition I noticed that at low speed on slippery roads the car stopped about 1/3 shorter without the ABS system. I am a professional engineer and was a project manager for anti-lock brake systems and am familiar with ABS operation.
