The recall began on June 13, 2016. Owners are warned not to install a CRS in the front seat. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669.

Electrical system, Engine, Apr 11, 2019, fire
I WAS DRIVING WHEN MY CAR WHICH IS A PUSH TO START COMPLETELY STOPPED. I TRY TO RESTART IT BUT COULDN'T. I LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE HOOD AND THE BATTERY WAS ON FIRE.
Suspension, Structure, Wheels, Mar 26, 2019
THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE WHEN STOPPING AND ACCELARATIING, THIS CLICKING SOUND COMES FROM THE FRONT TIRE AREA, IT STARTED ABOUT 8 MOS AGO AND NOW IT IS GETTING WORSE, I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. IT ALSO HAS LIKE A WHISTLING NOISE WHEN DRIVING 65-70 AND OVER. TWO ISSUES THE CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT TIRE AREA AND THE WHISTLING NOISE WHEN DRIVING OVER 65 MPH. I'VE NEVER HAVE BUMPED THE CAR OVER THE SIDESIDE WALK FOR THE CLICKING NOISE IT JUST STARTED. I DON'T KNOW WHY THE CAR MAKES THE WHISTLING NOISE AT HIGH SPEED
Power train, Mar 15, 2019
COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. TRANSMISSION STALLED OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE DUE TO LOSS OF POWER EVEN WITH ENGAGED ACCELERATION, TRANSMISSION JERKING AND SLIPPING. FEELS LIKE IT SKIPPING ALONG THE STREET WITH LOSS OF POWER.
Electrical system, Air bags, Mar 14, 2019
THERE'S A YELLOW DASHBOARD LIGHT AND A RED AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT THAT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN THERE'S AN ADULT IN THE SEAT, TOO. NISSAN SAYS IT'S A SIGN OF A FAULTY OCS AND SENSORS. I JUST FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS AND I'M NOT SURE THE 1ST OWNERS HAD IT CHECKED AND FIXED. I'M A 2ND OWNER. EITHER WAY, IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. SIMILAR RECALL WAS APRIL 26, 2016 | RECALL 16V244000.
Power train, Mar 1, 2019
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO KRAFT NISSAN (3277 MAHAN DR, TALLAHASSEE, FL 32308, (850) 576-6171). THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.
Power train, Feb 6, 2019
TRANSMISSION IS MAKING A WHIRRING NOISE ON ACCELERATION FROM A GREEN LIGHT AND IS JERKING SOMETIMES UPON ACCELERATION. THEN GETTING ON THE INTERSTATE IT HESITATES BEFORE IT HITS 60 MPH I BOUGHT THIS CAR WITH 45,000 MILES AND PAYMENT. I MADE A MISTAKE BECAUSE FORM OTHER COMPLAINTS THE CVT IS HAS A TON OF ISSUES AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

TIMING AND ELECTRICAL, THROTTLE CLUTCH CONTROL PROBLEMS. TRANSMISSION RELATED ISSUES.
Electrical system, Dec 14, 2018
ON MY RADIO, IT ALSO HAS GPS & BACKUP CAMERA AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK IT TURNS OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER IT TURNS BACK ON AND THE RADIO GOES FULL BLAST. I AM ASSUMING THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. IT DID IT AGAIN 12/13/18. I AM WORRIED THAT THE ELECTRICAL FOR THE WHOLE CAR IS GOING TO SHUT OFF.
Power train, Dec 12, 2018
THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT ALMOST 114K ON A 3 YEAR OLD VEHICLE. WAS TOLD IT CANT BE FIXED OR SEALED BECAUSE OF THE CVT TECHNOLOGY THAT PREVENTS REPAIRS. COSTS ABOUT $4K TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. WHY CAN'T THE TRANSMISSION BE REPAIRED? WHY ISN'T THE 120K POWERTRAIN COVERAGE AUTOMATIC IF YOU STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT AND BRAND?
Suspension, Vehicle speed control, Service brakes, Dec 4, 2018
H HAD PROBLEMS WITH NOISE AND BRAKES, APART WITH THE TRANSMISSION I HAVE TAKE 9 TIMES TO THE DEALERS FOR NOTHING.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Electronic stability control (ESC), Dec 1, 2018
NISSAN IS SELLING VEHICLES KNOWING THAT TRANSMISSIONS WILL ONLY LAST 2 YEARS BUT OVERCHARGING CONSUMERS AND CONSUMERS ARE STUCK WITH VEHICLE REPAIRS WHICH IS NOT AFFORDABLE. NO CONSUMER SHOULD BE CHARGED 22,000 AND OVER FOR A NISSAN SENTRA AND 2 YEARS LATER TRANSMISSION GOES OUT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BECAUSE THIS IS A RIP-OFF TO CONSUMERS. THE CAR HAS BEEN SOUNDING STRANGE SINCE DRIVING IT BUT ALL I KEEP HEARING NOTHING WRONG.
Electrical system, Nov 29, 2018
WHEN I GET IN MY CAR AND PUSH THE START BUTTON EVERYTHING SHUTS OFF LOCKING ME INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND I CAN NOT GET OUT!! LUCKILY I COULD RELEASE THE HOOD IF I HAVE SOMEONE TO LET ME OUT. IT HAPPENED ON TUESDAY NOVEMBER 27 AT 10PM IN 20 DEGREE WEATHER. I HAD A PANIC ATTACK TRYING TO GO FROM THE FRONT SEAT TO BACK AND BACK TO FRONT. I PRESSED MY HEAD SO HARD AGAINST THE CEILING THAT I IMMEDIATELY GOT A MIGRAINE AND THREW UP. THREE DAYS LATER I STILL HAVE A MIGRAINE AND THROWING UP. SHOULD THE CAR LOCK UP LIKE THAT WHEN LOSING POWER.
Power train, Structure, Nov 12, 2018
WE BOUGHT A 2016 NISSAN SENTRA IN MARCH OF 2018. I TOOK IT IN COMPLAINING OF A WHINING NOISE A FEW MONTHS AFTER HAVING IT AND WAS TOLD BECAUSE THEY DON'T SEE OR FEEL ANYTHING THERE IS NOTHING TO BE DONE. NOW IN NOVEMBER THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED. IT PUNCHES WHEN YOU GO TO TAKE OFF, FEELS LIKE IT IS LOSING POWER WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, DIFFICULT ACCELERATING, JERKS WHILE DRIVING, SHIFTS ON ITS OWN FROM ABOUT 1.5 RPM UP TO 3 WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, AND NISSAN SAID IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE I AM OVER 60,000 MILES (MY MILEAGE IS AT ABOUT 64,000 MILES). IT'S GOING TO COST $4500 TO REPLACE IT ACCORDING TO NISSAN. THE DOOR HANDLE COMES OFF AND IT HAS TO BE PUSHED BACK IN, THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS WHISTLE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY.
Power train, Electrical system, Engine, Nov 11, 2018
MY VEHICLE JERKS AND MAKES NOISE WHEN SHIFTING IN GEARS. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND CAR PERFORMANCE IS NOT LIKE IT SUPPOSE TO DO. I HAVE READ RECALLS ON THE NISSAN SENTRA AND MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE ISSUES THAT ARE FOUND ON OTHER VEHICLES.
Power train, Nov 5, 2018
DAYS BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED ON ME THE CAR WOULD FEEL LIKE IT WAS CHANGING GEARS ON IT'S OWN ON THE HIGHWAY,IT WOULD SHIFT BACK AND FORTH REALLY BAD AND THE RPMS WERE GOING UP AND DOWN REALLY FAST AND THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 40 MPH.FINALLY WHEN I TRIED TO GO UP THE STREET,THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL,HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR 4500.00,ON A 2 YEAR OLD CAR, THAT'S CRAZY
Power train, Oct 25, 2018
I HAVE A 2016 NISSAN SENTRA THAT HAS CVT TRANSMISSION THAT IS BREAKING DOWN AFTER THE CAR IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. CAR IS HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING, ACCELERATING, AND HESITATE AND LOSES POWER WHEN DRIVING ON BOTH A CITY STREET OR HIGHWAY. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM BY NISSAN FROM PREVIOUS MODELS AND THAT GO FROM 2003 TO 2010 MODELS WHERE THEY EXTENDED THE TRANSMISSION WARRANTY. I FOUND THIS OUT THROUGH RESEARCH AND SEE THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR LATE MODEL CARS LIKE MINE. A TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT FAIL LIKE THIS ON A 2 YEAR OLD CAR AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BEAR THE COST OF REPLACING IT AT $5,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE/HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY OVER 60 MPH THE CAR MAKES A LOUD NOISE AND PULLS HARD TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. THE CAR IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD 47,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS MADE THIS NOISE AND DONE IT SINCE IT WAS BOUGHT AND IS GETTING WORSE. IT PULLED THE CAR OFF THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 59. THE BRAKES SQUEAL WHEN MASHED EVEN THOUGH BRAKE PADS,ROTORS ARE GOOD AS WELL AS BRAKE FLUID. IT WILL MAKE A POPPING NOISE WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT IT INTO GEAR AS WELL.

I PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2016 WITH ONLY 10 MILES ON IT FROM ME DRIVING OFF WITH IT. I'VE REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE. IVE HAD MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED WHICH THEY DIDN'T WANT TO REPLACE DUE TO LOW NOISES IT MADE IF I DROVE OVER 10 MPH. THEY REFUSED TO FIX MY CAR FOR THREE MONTHS BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULDN'T CUT ON FROM THE NOISES IT MADE. NOW MY CAR CRANKS BUT DOESN'T START. ALL MAINTENANCE IS UP TO DATE AND MY CAR HAS 55,000 EVEN TODAY! THE BATTERY IS NOW AND CHARGED. ALL CABLES ARE TIGHT. I HAVE TO GET IT TOWED TO NISSAN TO HAVE IT INSPECTED.

ON 11/02/17 BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THE BRAKES AND SERVICE SAID THEY COULDN'T GET IT TO SQUEAK WHILE IT WAS AT THE SHOP. WAS IN FOR 1 DAY FOR SERVICE. NOW ITS 1/16/18 BROUGHT THE CAR BACK IN AGAIN AND SERVICE CAN HEAR GRIND/SQUEAK SOUND MILEAGE UNDER 12,000 MILES AND SHOP WANTS TO SHAVE THE ROTORS ON MY CAR AND REPLACE BRAKE PADS. I DO NOT WANT MY ROTORS SHAVED AS THAT MAKES IT ONE LESS TIME I CAN DO THAT IN THE FUTURE. SO SERVICE REPLACES WITH NEW NISSAN ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS. CAR IN SHOP FOR 10 DAYS NOW ITS 8/16/18 CAR HAS LESS THEN 5,000 MILES ON NISSAN FACTORY PARTS AND BRAKES ARE MAKING NOISE AGAIN. MASON IN SERVICE WANTS TO SHAVE MY ROTORS AND REPLACE BRAKE PADS BUT NISSAN DOES NOT WANT TO COVER THEM UNDER WARRANTY. I TELL THEM ITS OK TO SHAVE ROTORS THIS TIME BUT FEEL NISSAN SHOULD HAVE BETTER PARTS. WITH THE FEW MILES THAT ARE ON THE BRAKES AND ROTORS. CAR HAS LESS THEN 16,000 MILES ON IT. CAR IN SHOP FOR ANOTHER DAY. NISSAN HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE BRAKE PADS THEY ARE USING MASON THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID NISSAN HAS A BULLETIN ABOUT THE NOISE THERE BRAKES MAKE. WELL I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO KNOW THAT WHEN I WAS PURCHING THIS VECHILE. AS OF WRITING THIS LETTER THE BRAKES STARTED TO SQUEAK AGAIN. I AM TIRED OF DRIVING THIS CAR IN PUBLIC AND IT SOUNDING LIKE A OLD COP CAR OR TAXI CAB. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR FOR A REASON! SO IN CLOSING THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 12 DAYS SO FAR, HAS HAD NEW BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED TWICE AND THE CAR HAS LESS THEN 17,000 MILES ON IT NOW. I GUESS I EXPECTED TO MUCH WHEN I PURCHASED A CAR FOR $25,000 THAT IT WOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS AND NISSAN HAS PROVED ME WRONG. WHAT I WOULD LIKE NISSAN TO DO IS PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE BACK FROM ME, WITH A CREDIT SO I CAN PURCHASE A NEW NISSAN WITH NO PROBLEMS.
