Further, while my 2017 Nissan Sentra was under warranty I had the car serviced by Nissan 309 and then Conicelli Nissan. I informed the Nissan dealers that the car was not running as smoothly as it should and asked them to check for issue(s) with the fuel filter/fuel system.

Over some period of time that I do not remember, months likely, my average fuel mileage started to go down.

VEHICLE LOSES FUEL POWER WHEN MAKING TURNS OR WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY (IE: ENTERING FREEWAY ON THE ON-RAMP). RPM FLUCTUATE OR INCREASE EVEN IF ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED. PER MECHANIC, FAULTY THROTTLE POSITIONING SENSOR IS VERY COMMON WITH NISSAN.

I CAN BE DRIVING AND MAINTAINING THE SPEED LIMIT WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY SPEED WILL DROP ALMOST LIKE I AM HITTING THE BRAKES. THIS HAS HAPPENED DURING CITY DRIVING AND WHILE ON THE HIGH WAY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 8 MONTHS NOW.

TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, SOME TOMES IT DOES NOT CHANGE GEAR. SOME TIMES IN STATIONARY THE GEAR WILL NOT CHANGE, SOMETIME WILE IN MOTION THE CAR WIL SLOW DOWN. THIS HAPPENS , IN THE CITY AND ON THE FREEWAY
