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.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
One day I got in my car with my mother and it told me that the passager air bag was off but she was sitting in it. I had just turned it on and the day before that it was fine. Also the one on my dash said that there was a air bag problem. It wasn't hit or touched it was truly over night infront of my house then the lights for the air bag were on when I started my car.
When I press the pedal gas the car doesnt work well.I cant drive higher than 40 miles because the transmition doesnt running well and sometime I have to pull over the car cause it doesnt even run 20 mile.eache stops signal I do is even worst.all this notes are in the city streets I cant drive on a highway because it doesnt run over 40 miles
The red air bag warning light turns on displaying that the air bag is not engaged to deploy in the event of an accident. The air bag fuse is not worn. The seat belt buckle has already been replaced. All connections below the seats are connected. Sensors have not been activated as there have been no accidents. The air bag warning light will either be on at the car's ignition, or it may turn on after two or more miles while driving.
Takata recall passenger air bag does not turn on when passenger is in car while the car is and is not in motion. Car turned off while pulling out of driveway. Mechanic confirmed I have a wiring issue somewhere when they tried to put new fog lights in and issue was not resolved.
I have gotten 6 recalls for my car when I bought it 3 months ago from crowly Kia in bristol ct. 5 of the recalls are for airbags and 1 of them is for the electrical and they all popped up on my credit karma account all in red, so I'm taking that as they need to be fixed and I have called Nissan and they are saying that non of them are showing up in their data base but why do I have them on credit karma all in red? I have them all printed up with the campaign number and recall id number and credit karma is telling me that they need to be fix which is why they are in red and not green. So can someone please call me and explain this to me and I can tell there is something wrong with the electrical system which is one of my recalls. My number is (860)776-8239
I hit a metal barrier at 75 mph on the highway not one airbag deployed. I have had 2 surgeries significant brain damage and memory loss. Nissan won't even acknowledge there was a problem. Also transmission blew at less than 36000 miles mostly highway
Takada recall, my vehicle has been in the shop for an airbag recall but is not listed as an affected vehicle when I check the VIN #, also, the center seat belt in the rear seat has never worked, the seat belt will not latch, this is a very serious issue and also a violation of the law due to seat belt laws.
Brakes failed to function when attempting to stop while going 35 mph on a dry, straight roadway. The pedal had some tension behind it but didn't feel right, kind of spongy and it went all the way to the floor. Several pumps of the break did not result in significant braking so I spun the steering wheel to the right to try to avoid the car that was stopping, but could not clear it and my car has been totaled and I am in pain. Airbags also failed to deploy, and I'd have thought a 35 mph crash should have been sufficient to trigger the inertia sensor.
First is was the A/C went out frist then the transmission problem when me my husband was headed to work one day the a eighteen wheeler almost Ram into use because the stop in the middle of traffic and wouldn't go any where.
The OCS does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger air bag is deactivated. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk injury or death to the passenger. This issue has been escalated to the elk grove Nissan repair center multiple times. Elk grove informed me they reset the programming of the sensor and uninstalled and installed the seat to try to resolve the issue. The issue continues to occur especially when the vehicle has been parked on a non level surface for a period of time.
Takata recall. When yu take off & it gets up in speed the car jerk. When you stop at a red light or stop sign & then go, it jerk like it's trying to take off. But it barely move & jerk pretty hard. It seem like the car transmission is not changing out. While the car is jerking when you take off. It's like the idles up & down. When you brake it sounds like you walking on squeaky hard wood floor. The airbag does not work at all.I
The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Sentra. While driving various speeds, the accelerator pedal was depressed and the vehicle failed to accelerate. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, but the failure could not be duplicated. The failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer for the acceleration failure and routine maintenance. The contact was informed of an air bag warning indicator recall. The dealer repaired the vehicle per the recall, but the remedy failed. The contact mentioned that the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated after the recall repair. The contact was unable to provide the recall information. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 33,000.
Recalls for the following: 1) takata recall; 2) mfg. Recall #R1608 ; 3) NHTSA recall #16V-24; and 4) the occupant classification system(OCS) designed to classify the size/weight of front seat passenger, and under certain conditions, automatically turn off the passenger airbag. OCS system is designed ton only deploy front passenger airbag when the front passenger seat is occupied by an adult. The OCS software may incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty when it's occupied. If child restraint system (crs) is installed in front passenger seat, the seat belt bracket could deform and airbag may not deactivate as designed. Failure of passenger airbag to deploy during a crash could increase the risk of injury to passenger. If seat belt bracket deforms, this may increase risk of injury to child sitting in a crs installed in the front seat.
The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Sentra. While driving approximately 25 mph, the contact rear ended the preceding vehicle. The front passenger air bag failed to deploy. The contact sustained bruises to the chest and wrist, but did not require medical attention. A police report was not filed. The contact was able to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The VIN was included in NHTSA campaign number: 16V242000 (air bags). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,488.
Issue1: The occupant classification system (OCS) software incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult. This is happening when the vehicle is in motion or stationary. This life-threatening problem substantially impairs the use and value of my vehicle and also it creates a serious safety hazard. I have been harassed by the local dealer due to their repeated ineffective attempts to fix this issue. Issue2: Groaning sound from brakes when driving downhill. Local dealer couldn't able to fix this issue.
The dash sensor light that indicates when the passenger airbag is deactivated often lights up while adult passengers are in the seat. Typically it takes 15 minutes of driving to reset the light. This happens regularly.
The contact owned a 2013 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated that the vehicle was struck on the passenger side by another vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed. There were very serious injuries and the contact was flown to the hospital for medical attention. The vehicle was destroyed and towed. The failure mileage was 15,000.
