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.

Now the newest problems is with the brakes. The brake lights stay illuminated continuously (unless car is turned off). You can press on the brakes, and the center back window break light gets brighter, but that's it... the other lights just stay bright all the time.

I was doing research, and lots of people having same problem it seems. I read that people were getting water in the rear passenger tail light, and that was causing problems. They got the light replaced and that fixed everything...

Can anyone let me know if you had the same problems, and how you got them fixed? My back taillight is not broken, or cracked, and its never been replaced.. but there is moisture in the taillight..

Please email me, anything would help. Thanks :)
