Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A 2011 NISSAN SENTRA BRAND NEW ONE OWNER JUST THE OTHER DAY I WAS DRIVING. AS I GOT OF THE HIGHWAY I STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND ONCE IT TURNED GREEN TRIED TO GAS IT BUT IT DOESN'T MOVE. I TRIED TO PUT IT IN L NOTHING, REVERSE NOTHING CAR REVS BUT DOESN'T ACCELERATE. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THEY SAID TRANSMISSION IS GONE . REALLY DISAPPOINTED 4 YEARS AND CARS TRANSMISSION WENT. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE 8TH NISSAN IN THE FAMILY AND I'M WORRIED NOW BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL CVT. AFTER THIS NEVER BUYING ANOTHER NISSAN THEY KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM. EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE 2007-2010 MODELS BUT NO RECALL. 2011 NISSAN SENTRA HIGHWAY DRIVEN DAILY AND NISSAN DON'T WANT TO FIX IT. I FINANCED THE CAR FOR 5 YEARS STILL OWE $5000 AND THEY WANT $5500 FOR NEW TRANSMISSION. VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE QUALITY I GOT FOR 24000 CAR SPECIAL EDITION SR MODEL DEFIANTLY WOULDN'T RECOMMEND TO ANYBODY. BEWARE VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE DON'T BUY CVT TRANSMISSION. *TR
