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.

2014 Nissan Sentra Owner Comments

problem #1

May 142019

Sentra S 1.6L

  • CVT transmission
  • 58,000 miles

Nissan Sentra is a piece of junk. I bought this pre owned at 50k miles. First ac evaporator blows, then compressor blows. Car was heating in traffic and on investigation head gasket was also very weak.

So in last 8K miles;

One AC evaporator One AC pipes and set of filter One AC compressor One Head Gasket assembly Half engine turning New Radiator

Its honestly a bad car. I have owned so many cars and surprisingly Nissan, that is the most trusted brand here, has turned me down to never go for another.

I have BMW x5 - 2006 with 255k on it and runs strong with zero issues. Owned various other cars with higher mileage never had an issue.

But Sentra has made it evident, not to buy another Nissan. Disappointed.
