When I started the car it sounded like the engine was clicking. I turned it off thinking it may have been from the cold. After restarting the car, the sound did not start again. About 10 minutes into my drive, it started to feel like the the car was shaking each time I braked. About 5 minutes later, it felt like the car was fighting me to accelerate. After I stopped at a red light, it would not accelerate past 20 mph and started dropping as I pulled to the side of the road. It would not accelerate but I could hear the engine revving. No service engine light came on, or any other light. I turned off the car and called AAA to have my car towed to the dealership I purchased the car (Piazza Nissan). They did a diagnosis on the car which gave the diagnostic of P2859 and P0746. Upon searching th

2015 Nissan Sentra with only 83000 CVT transmission failed
I'm driving my car on the freeway and it's stalls. I barely made it to the shoulder. I waited a few minutes and drove again. Went a few miles, and again, it stalled. I made it to a safe place. Had my car towed to a mechanic. They said it was the CVT transmission.
While pulling out in an intersection, my car would not accelerate as normal and I was almost hit by incoming traffic. When accelerating from stop, the vehicle moves slowly and hesitates. Once over a certain speed the car will function properly. The CVT is an issue in models 2013-2015 Nissan Altima also, but the manufacturer issued an extension for the powertrain warranty. The same should be done for the Sentra. It's a safety concern, because the CVT can go out at any time putting the driver at risk.
The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to respond. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: 10058388 (Transmission Control Module); however, the vehicle was not included in the TSB. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 111,000.
The component which has failed is the CVT Transmission. It can be available and has been inspected upon request. The safety is for myself, my son, and other drivers on the roads because the transmission could cause hesitation as it did previoiusly without warning while in operation causing a possible collision. The problem has been confirmed by the manufacturer. The component has been inspected by the delaer on behalf of the manufacturer. There were no warning lamps this time because the dealer stated the code found during the diagnostic check indicates the transmission is not communicating with the vehicle computer so that the warning lamp would indicate there is a problem. The transmission was replaced February 2021. However, after only being driven 21, 263 miles this transmission
This is ourt second Nissan sentra our first one had the transmission replaced a little over 80,000 miles and now this one does the same thing it has a whine to it that is progressively getting louder and the transmission sometimes feels like it slips all of this happens on any street road speed
When you first take off in the sentra it hesitates and bogs down while you're going down the road the rpms stay at three to four and it starts jerking And it has lost power and as losing power

80,000 miles and the transmission blew! This is not right. Our auto shop told us this has been an ongoing issue with Nissan & our type of vehicle involving the CVT transmission. This should be a red flag that this should not be happening. We were driving the vehicle on the highway and it was not accelerating. Very dangerous. Had the vehicle towed into our local auto shop to find out the vehicle needs a new transmission! Unfortunately the dealership is telling us that our vehicle is not a part of the chronic factory recall that has been an ongoing issue with Nissan for quite some time.
airbags 3 complaints shown
Recently my family was rear-ended while sitting at a stoplight at a four-way intersection on a state route by a drunk driver traveling more than twice the speed limit (40 MPH). Following the collision, it was determined that the side curtain airbags had been deployed. However, neither the driver nor passenger airbags deployed in the crash causing increased injury to the driver and front passenger of the car. There were no occupants in the back seat and all occupants were wearing safety restraint belts correctly.*dt *tr
Takata recall. I bought a 2015 Nissan sentra sl. I have taken it back to the dealership several times to deal with the issue. Still not fixed. Talked to Nissan corporate to file the lemon law. They denied me. They are telling me that they are going to fly out a special technician to check it out. They said that I need to drive my car that does not have working air bags until the tech comes out, which may take up to a month. They said that they will not cover a rental car. They told me that my wife can ride in the back seat until it gets fixed.
Apparently the dealer who sold me the car without telling me that it was a previous total loss and now they refuse to give me my down payment back.

Without any warning electric fuel pump failed it show no signs of failing or going bad with fuel being flammable and the pump being electric aside from the risk of the car loosing power while in use the fact of it being flammable and faulty resorts to much bigger issues.
