My car just started to have transmission problems. It started to forced especially on hills and the transmission started to force itself and the at 115000 miles the transmission stopped working since it gave us the P 2767. It is just absolutely ridiculous that a new car would not last more than 4 to 5 years without having to replace a vital part of the vehicle. It’s just a shame to find out that issues like this happen to a lot of people with the same type of car as mine and that this issue the manufacturers can’t take responsibility and do the right thing and address this issue . We made an effort to get a new car thinking that it would give us a pease of mind for at least 10 years since it was not a pocket change price tag. We believed it was an investment or...

Transmission is slipping when trying to go up hills. Also crash detection sensor malfunction and these items need recalled. Especially the transmission when I see I'm not the only complaint.

I keep having issues with AEB system. The emergency braking system that is supposed to sense cars in front of you and brake for you if you don’t brake yourself. I was doing about 70 mph no one else on road sunny day and my car starts beeping loudly and my brakes lock up for no reason. 3 times just today this happened. Oh and you can’t turn the system off so I just keep praying it doesn’t kill me one of these days on the interstate. Can’t believe this isn’t a recall probably won’t be until someone is seriously injured. My neck hurts from whiplash but can’t go to the hospital for that with the price of my insurance copay. Don’t buy a Nissan if you read this never buy a Nissan.

My vehicle is unsafe to drive as now its alerting me of Malfunction EBS. The alert is a constant beep and the EBS will start to activate when no vehicles are present to avoid a collision.

On October 14, 2023, while driving with no vehicle in front of the 2019 Nissan Sentra, the Automatic Emergency Braking engaged, stopping the car forcefully. There were 3 warning beeps of a potential collision immediately prior to the braking, however, as stated, no vehicle was in front of this vehicle, and no other obstruction was in front of the vehicle. On October 16, 2023, while driving with no vehicle in front of the 2019 Nissan Sentra, there were 3 beeps warning of a potential collision. During this occasion, the braking did not engage and only the warning was given.

Driving 20 mph at night on a road that was recently torn up for road resurfacing. Manhole covers were raised but not contacting the underside of the car. I was attempting to drive so that I did not have to run over the manhole covers and the automatic braking system beeped twice, flashed an advisory on the dash, and engaged full anti-skid brakes to bring the car to a complete stop. Thankfully, there was not a vehicle behind me, or my pregnant wife & I would have definitely been rear ended. I suspect the radar system, mounted on the lower left of the front bumper, picked up the manhole covers and mistook them as another car. There is a way to turn off this system, but it resets each time you restart the car. I am looking to permanently disable this system, either by a fuse or by physically disconnecting...

There was a warning sign for the front lights like something was blocking it or something I honestly don't know but I brought it to enterprise attention and they told me don't worry about it. Then later I was in a wreck my car made no warning sign nor did the air bags deploy

To be brief, I had a nissan sentra 2019 leased car from 10/19 to present. About 1 year during its lease (3 year), I noticed that the instrument clock freezes and the other clock on the radio panel/screen does not. I have contacted NIssan company and the dealership that I leased the auto from. NO help at all. I have 6 different videos of this situation on my cell phone. The main reason I am contacting this federal agency is that the last time it happened (01/23), I the control instruments on the steering wheel did not function at all. I will admit I never tried to use the various controls when the clock froze in the past 2 years until by chance I did this past month. This may also involve even the car horn (all in the same area). Thus, all I have been asking is to have...

Automatic "Emergency" Braking System: I was driving my 2019 nissan sentra home a few weeks ago on a 2 lane street going about 35 mph, when suddenly and without warning, with no obstructions/cars in front of or in back of me luckily, my automatic emergency braking system engaged throwing me forward in my car seat even though i was wearing my seat belt and bringing the car practically immediately to a complete stop in the middle of the road and scaring the living daylights out of me! After this i could not drive the car home because i was to scared so i called for help to come get me. Ever since i have been deathly afraid to drive my car. I am lucky i was not in an accident! I have noticed this is a KNOWN and REPORTED issue across the internet with this nissan "safety" system on many...

Several hazard lights have come on and I've been told to reset it and tried but the lights stay on there are more than 5 on the main one that scares me is the malfunction warning light. The car used to warn me when you close to a vehicle or someone too close behind it does none of that anymore the steering wheel has also shifted... Please HELP!

At 65mph, I hit a tiny bump. The automatic braking system and collision detection warnings triggered and I lost all acceleration ability. I was nearly hit by a semi while coasting off the freeway in traffic. When inspected by Nissan the first time it happened (9/20/2021), the lights turned off and the computer reset. They did a warranty recall for something unrelated and told me they fixed it. On 5/13/2022 it did it again, and on 5/30 I was told it would not be covered under any warranty - all diagnosis and repair would be my own cost. A sensor should never take control of the car away from the driver. The only way to regain acceleration is to turn the car off. Wait. Turn it on. Wait. Use the menu, turn off Automatic Emergency Braking, drive.

Forward collision warning light came on as I was driving w/ no cars in front of me. The car jerked as if i slammed on my brakes. As I was pulling into my driveway, Malfunction See owners manual showed along w/ AEB warning light. I waited a while then came back outside to start car and the brakes were stiff and it wouldn't start. Malfunction see owners manual showed again along w/ AEB warning light and Engine light blinking. Then it started to make a constant, solid beeping type noise and shut off. I literally just found about the recall as I never received any type of notice. It took Google to tell me this which brought me here.

The FCW and the AEB lights come on periodically stating that the system is malfunctioning. Took it to the dealer and they said it was the sensor for the FCW and AEB that has failed. Other vehicles around my mileage and year and model have had the same issues. Nissan needs to take care of this.

BOUGHT 2019 NISSAN SENTRA FOR OUR DAUGHTER. AS SHE WAS DRIVING ON THE 405 N AND HAD TO BRAKE ON THE FREEWAY DURING HIGH TRAFFIC TIME, THE WARNING MALFUNCTION LIGHT COMES ON AND 3 INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHT COMES ON: AEB, FRONT COLLISION, AND WARNING LIGHT. TOOK IT TO NISSAN, THEY DIAGNOSE 2 CODES THAT COMES UP IN THE TSB, DTC C1A16 (RADAR BLOCKED) AND DTC C1A12 (LASER BEAM OFF-CENTER) STATING THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BUT I STILL HAD TO PAY DIAGNOSIS AND THE PART AND LABOR TO FIX IT.

EVEN A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD (NOT EVEN A BIG SPEED BUMP) SOMETIMES CAUSES THE FRONT BUMPER TO RISE AND STRIKE THE BRACKET HOLDING THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SENSOR. THAT THROWS THE SENSOR OUT OF CALIBRATION AND MAKES IT UNRELIABLE. THE TECH AT AUTO NATION COLLISION IN LAS VEGAS TOLD ME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. HE SAID THE BUMPER AND THE BOTTOM OF THE BRACKET ARE TOO CLOSE TOGETHER SO THE BRACKET GETS HIT OFTEN AND DAMAGES THE SENSOR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. YOU THINK YOU HAVE A COLLISION WARING SYSTEM BUT YOU DON'T OR THE SENSOR REPORTS A COLLISION WHEN NONE HAS HAPPENED.

MY CAR FREQUENTLY CHIMES WITH THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING / EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST AS THOUGH THERE IS A CHANCE OF A COLLISION. WHEN IT DOES THIS, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN FRONT OF MY CAR! WHEN LEAVING WORK 2 DAYS AGO, I STARTED TO CROSS A LITTLE BUMP IN THE ROAD THAT I CROSS DAILY WITH NO ISSUES; THIS PARTICULAR INSTANCE HOWEVER, MY CAR DECIDED THAT IT WAS AN APPARENT COLLISION BECAUSE MY CAR CAME TO A DEAD STOP FROM ABOUT 15-20 MILES PER HOUR. FORTUNATELY MY HUSBAND AND I WERE BOTH WEARING OUR SEATBELTS, AND NO ONE WAS BEHIND US AS IT WOULD HAVE CERTAINLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THE SENSOR/RADAR FOR THE FORWARD COLLISION/EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST IS A HAZARD IN MY OPINION. THE CONCEPT IS FANTASTIC, BUT IF IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK PROPERLY, THEN IT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM VEHICLES, OR AT LEAST BE ABLE TO BE...
