Rear seatbelts trigger a no seatbelt alarm when somebody unbuckles and leaves the vehicle. As well as when somebody leaves and comes back and puts on the seatbelt, the alarm saying that the seatbelt is still not buckled up. It only does it after somebody does buckle in and buckle out and reset anytime the car is turned off and then turned back on. Found out that the rear seats do not have weight sensors, and this has to do with the actual seatbelts sensors. Noticed that buckling the center seatbelt sometimes, sometimes, will cancel out the alarm. In either case, the audible alarm within the vehicle, goes off within two minutes. At my first oil change, dealership said that to wait till the second oil change to see if it fixes itself. Went in for another visit at 7500 miles, and mentioned th

Date of purchase from dealer: right passenger door lock non-functional. the salesperson had to have the door opened from the outside to exit the car. He took the care to be repaired while the paperwork was completed. Subsequently I have been unable to exit both doors without pushing the UNLOCK button. The door handle does not itself open the door. 2. Both screens flicker/dim/darken, and at times are completely black for up to 5 seconds. 3. The rear passenger seat belt is extremely difficult to latch with child safety seat in place. The car was taken to two different dealers without any repair/s completed. I was told the door lock having to be manually opened was a 'safety feature'. I was told that the screen dims on purpose related to a monitor on the dash. I brought a video of it happenin
Only 1 week after purchasing the car new from Nissan of Clearwater, the rear seat belt alarms would trigger when someone would sit back there after they fastened their seat belt and I drove off. The other 2 seat belt alarms would sound nonstop until the back seat passenger fastened the empty seats belts. I brought the car in 3 times to be repaired and the problem is still not fixed. This is a SAFETY issue because I am not sure if the rear seat belts are functioning properly and I will not take a chance that someone could be injured or killed in this car. I have contacted Nissan of North America Consumer Affairs and reported the issue. Hopefully they will resolve this very dangerous issue.

Blind spot monitoring NOT WORKING on BRAND NEW 2025 Nissan Sentra. DEALER TOLD ME IT IS NOT WORKING on any new 2025 Nissan Sentra’s. If I knew this I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THE CAR!
My Nissan Sentra experienced unintended forward movement while Reverse was selected. After restarting the vehicle and shifting back into Park and then Reverse, the vehicle moved forward instead of backward, and the brake behavior became abnormal. This caused a minor collision. The condition has been reproducible, and I have video evidence documenting the issue. The vehicle is currently being held, and I was informed that repairs should not begin until Nissan inspects the vehicle and retrieves diagnostic/event data. I am submitting this as a potential safety defect involving unintended vehicle movement, shifting, braking, and vehicle control.
Rental car company is renting out cars with open safety recalls. I paid 1212$ cash ( I did not plan on this expense. I did not have that much money on one card so they told me to remove it from multiple cards at an ATM and give them cash ) for a seven day rental only to find out if open safety recalls on it. I took it back the next day. They said it did not have a recall. They did not offer me an exchange or refund. They took the car before I talked to them about my complaint. They did not remove the charges for the seven days of insurance or tolls and charge me 50 extra dollars for gas. not only are they breaking federal law they’re taking advantage of the elderly.

My 2025 Nissan purchased new May 2025 came with Firestone FT140 P 205 / 60 R 16 I started noticing a very slight vibration in rear tire at 42 mph around September 5600 miles On Sept 20, 2025 I took car on trip for several hundred miles at speeds over 70 mph. The car has developed a much more noticed vibration above 50 mph. On Sept. 22 I had tires checked for failure. Local tire store who sells Firestone told me both rear tires was out of round. This store could not warranty my tires, they said they only sold them. I would have to find a real dealer. I called Firestone # listed in my Nissan warranty book 1 800 847 3272 I gave them my Zip Code and problem, I was advised to find real dealer on compter my self. I found a real service dealer 55 miles away, I called them they had none in stoc
I bought a brand new 2025 Nissan Sentra SV Premium which included 17" wheels (only found on the SV Premium Package) with Michelin Primacy A/S size 215/50 R17 (original equipment). I began noticing some safety issues while driving straight out of the dealership. While driving on diamond ground concrete roads (rain grooved roads) on Interstate highways, the vehicle wobbles uncontrollable, to the point that I feel that I am about to lose control of the vehicle. I have to bring the vehicle to an unsafe low speed to control the vehicle. It seems like if the tread pattern from the tires locks into the grooves on the roads, and causes each tire to wobble the car wildly in different directions, which is absolutely terrifying at high speeds. I took the car back to the dealership with about 500 mile

I purchased a certified pre-owned 2025 Nissan Sentra SV from a local dealership here in Georgia for my wife. It had 1500miles on it at time of purchase. We have had it less than a month and observed engine shutdown, and totaled power loss about five times in traffic. This is a safety concern because it is random without prior warning. The engine shuts down, dash screen goes black, and you are unable to warn others with hazard lights due to total loss of power. Recently, the vehicle did give dash codes alluding to the problems described, however the dealership was unable to identify the cause or duplicate the problem. When the incident occurred again, I towed it to the dealership, and they still have not gotten answers as to why the car stalls without warning. Unable to move the gear
I purchased this car around January 2025 & around August 2025 I started having battery issues. It’s currently March 2026. I have to keep having the battery jumped at. When he battery wasn’t jumping I had to get it sent to a nissan where they said nothing was wrong with the car so the next day the battery failed again.. and again each day . I have to keep calling AAA to come have the car jumped which I ended up just getting a portable battery jumper which works sometimes but other times I would have to call AAA of course, or if it doesn’t start at all, I will have to get it told to nissan. Certain times the car would start up and then when you pull out the parking space it’ll start shaking and then you’re driving in the car will slowly turn off. You’ll just be sitting there and that’s the

The rear window on the 2025 Nissan Sentra shattered for no known reason. The car was parked in my driveway, was OK when I locked it up a 3pm to go for a walk, and when I got home at 3:40, there was a big whole in my back window. None of our neighbors heard or saw anything, and there are no ring doorbells that could have a video of what happened. Police came and looked at it, there is no evidence of a rock or bird hitting it, and no sign of a BB or any other projectile. It appears to have spontaneously shattered. This is not covered under warranty, so I wanted to report this in case there are other reports that could trigger a recall.
I am the owner of a 2025 Nissan Sentra with approximately 3,200 miles. The vehicle was purchased new from an authorized Nissan dealership in Columbia, South Carolina.

steering 1 complaint shown
Summary: I am reporting two significant defects on my 2025 Nissan Sentra that pose safety risks. 1. Suspension/Steering: During low-speed maneuvers (approx. 20mph) such as navigating roundabouts, there is a persistent mechanical creaking/squealing noise from the front passenger side. The dealership technician verified the noise but provided a physically impossible diagnosis, claiming "tires were slipping," despite the vehicle being brand new with tires in perfect condition. This suggests a defect in the control arm bushings or strut mounts which affects steering predictability. 2. Power Window/Electrical: The driver-side window produces a loud, piercing screech when operated. More critically, the window switch has experienced intermittent functional failure where it becomes unresponsive.

When it rains the car hydroplanes and the traction on the tires are no good. Also the door locks don't unlock properly and the door won't open. Also the warning for vehicle collision front and back doesn't work properly and doesn't warn you when a vehicle is going to hit you from behind. I was rear-ended and it didn't alert me at all and the driver of the other vehicle took off.and once in a while the front collision works and most of the time it doesn't work
