AIR BAGS
CODE: R1608 THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) IS DESIGNED TO CLASSIFY THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AND, UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THE OCS SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO ONLY DEPLOY THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT. IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE OCS SOFTWARE MAY INCORRECTLY CLASSIFY THE PASSENGER SEAT AS EMPTY WHEN IT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT. IF THE OCS DOES NOT DETECT AN ADULT OCCUPANT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WOULD BE DEACTIVATED. ADDITIONALLY, IF A CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (CRS) IS INSTALLED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT (NISSAN INSTRUCTIONS ADVISES AGAINST THIS), IN CERTAIN RARE INSTANCES, THE SEAT BELT BRACKET COULD DEFORM AND THE AIR BAG MAY NOT DEACTIVATE AS DESIGNED. THIS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF AN INJURY TO A CHILD SITTING IN A CRS INSTALLED IN THE FRONT SEAT.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES SINCE 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT IN 2018. CAR RPM JUMPS UP AND DOWN WHEN DRIVING. CAR SHUTS OFF WHEN I'M PARK AND LEFT IN IDLE SOMETIMES, IT TAKES A LOT TO TURN LEFT OR RIGHT IN THE VEHICLE. HAD TRANSMISSION REPLACED IN THE BEGINNING OF 2019 THINKING IT WILL FIX IT, BUT THE ISSUE STILL OCCURS. I'VE TAKEN IT TO MECHANICS AND THEY ALL SUGGESTED TO CONTACT NISSAN. I'VE SPENT ALMOST 4,000-6,000 ON REPAIRS WITHIN THE LAST TWO YEARS. ALL RELATED TO THE SAME ISSUE

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN SENTRA THAT IS HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, I HAVE THE CVT TRANSMISSION THAT SO MANY CONSUMERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT. I WAS IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT ON OCT. 29TH 2019 WHEN MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD AND REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS AT A TOTAL STOP (STATIONARY) AND MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME CAUSING DAMAGE TO BOTH CARS. MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS IT LUNGES, JERKS AND RPM GO UP WHEN IDLING. I AM HEARING GRINDING NOISES AND MY CAR JERKS AND DRAGS WHEN DRIVING. I HAD IT IN THE SHOP ABOUT A YEAR AGO FOR CLICKING NOISES AND GEAR HARD SHIFTING, THEY COVERED UP THE PROBLEM AND I PAID THE DEALER $116 TO LUBE MY GEAR SHIFT AND STRUTS.I STILL OWE $4000 ON THIS CAR. THE NISSAN DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME $150 FOR A TRANSMISSION INSPECTION. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE I GET INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT DUE TO A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. I BELIEVE THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THE TRANSMISSION ON 2014. THANK YOU. CATHY

ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING DECEMBER 2019 MY CAR GOING AT AROUND 50 MPH STOP RESPONDING TO THE GAS PEDAL AND I HAD TO QUICKLY PULL OVER IN A STRIP MALL SO I WOULD NOT BE HIT OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN TO GET GOING, AFTER THAT I SLOWLY WENT TO WORK. THIS HAD HAPPENED TO ME ON A FEW OCCASIONS ALREADY. WHEN I RESEARCHED IT I FOUND OUT THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE SAID THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THIS YEAR VEHICLE. THIS IS DANGEROUS.

CURRENTLY MY CAR IS AT 100,747 MILES AND I HAVE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED BECAUSE TODAY THE TRANSMISSION BEGIN TO SLIP AND MY CAR WAS JERKING. THIS OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, SO I GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AND DROVE ON THE STREET HOME, AND THE JERKING MOTION CONTINUED.

TRANSMISSION ACTS ERRATICALLY, WE HAVE EXPERIENCED SLIPPAGE, VIBRATIONS, LOSS OF POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (ALMOST LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL). WE HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR THESE PROBLEMS AT 50,788 MILES (12/29/2017), THE DEALER DID A REPROGRAM AT THIS TIME, AND 54,904 MILES (03/09/2018)WITH THE NISSAN DEALER SAYING THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. NOW THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THESE PROBLEMS, BUT EVEN THOUGH THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 84,000 MILES, OUR VEHICLE HAS 85,750 MILES SO IT IS NOT COVERED. THE DATE AND INCIDENT INFORMATION BELOW REPRESENTS THE DATE OF THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE.
