CVT Transmission. Yes available for inspection. Vehicle was juddering/flaring Yes confirmed by dealer and independent service center No warning lamps or other symptoms besides the juddering/flaring First appeared around mid June 2021 The ServiceCampaign Bulletin dated 9/28/17 does not include our VIN#... even though the problem is identical! Because our VIN was not included, Nissan refused to compensate us for this problem. There was a class action suit regarding this issue that has now expired. We are asking for compensation as this was a known Nissan issue and this vehicle is still relatively new with low milage.

Cvt Transmission my car just has 125,000 miles

My 2013 Nissan Sentra CVT transmission prematurely failed at 82,000 miles and is available for inspection upon request. One year ago (2020) my car started to shudder and stall when going from a stop, at 75,000 miles. I took my car to the Nissan dealership and they said that they felt the same issues when test driving it and contacted Nissan HQ to see if I qualified for the extended warranty. Nissan HQ requested that they check the transmission fluid and run some diagnostic tests and check for specific codes. In 2020, the Nissan dealership did as requested and found that the transmission fluid was black and smelled burnt or spent but reported that there were no shavings in the fluid. In 2020, they also could not get the specific diagnostic codes that were requested by Nissan HQ. When Nissan HQ got these results, they said that all my car needed was a transmission fluid change, even though this year's model is known to have CVT premature transmission failure. Currently, in 2021 my car started shuddering and stalling again along with new problems such as: kicking when putting the car in reverse, trying to shift gears at inappropriate times, RPMs racing even when on a flat, straight road with cruise control on. I took my car to get inspected by the Nissan dealership again and this time they told me that my car has "internal transmission failure" and is not recommended to be driven. The price for a new transmission is $4343.93 which is worth more than the car. Nissan HQ refuses to pay for this even though they know that this transmission has this problem. Nissan HQ claims that they cannot help due expiration of the extended warranty, this is unfair to people who gently drove their cars and took care of them which delayed the occurrence of the inevitable problem These transmissions are unsafe for the driver and those around and in the car and it is wreckless for Nissan not to have a recall on these transmissions.

Purchase car in 2015. On Sept 27, 2017, my transmission blew. The warranty covered the repair. On Sept 12, 2018, the transmission blew again. I had to pay $3,106.83 out of pocket. On May 7, 2021, the transmission blew again! I now have no warranty and no money to repair. I feel as though I was sold a lemon.

Transmission has stop being affective in a dramatic time frame. No check engine light, no previous issues, nothing called out by the many Nissan techs who have worked on the car over the years. When putting the car into reverse or drive, there is a delay, followed by a hard jerk into gear. While accelerating the car struggles to provide power through the transmission. Then fails to shift into higher gears while accelerating on all road types. When going to accelerate up a hill, I have lost all power when pressing the gas pedal. The car needed to be parked in a no parking zone, due to the sudden loss of power.

Transmission very sluggish especially trying to accelerate uphill. Periodic lost of power while driving. Jerking motion when turning.

The transmission on this car shredded itself to bits in a day at 86K miles. It made a very mild grinding noise going into work in the morning on an expressway and driving home the same night it sounded like the engine was about to jump out of the car. Revving engine with no power only for it to launch like a rocket with no warning, terrible clunking, stalling, the works, especially at a stop-start. I've researched online and found that this is a very common problem and that Nissan is fully aware that they break around 80K miles and choose to do nothing about it.

The vehicle hesitates significantly when acccelerating... axts like it doesn't shift out right.... and bogs down when accelerating at normal speeds.

We have a Nissan Sentra 2013, we've changed the transmission when vehicle had 80,000 miles (almost one year and a half ago), vehicle doesn't have 30,000 miles and is broken again, while Nissan knows about this issue and now they say that they can't do anything about it. Shame on Nissan!!! the worst part is that their own dealers know this is a common issue because Nissan transmisin builder is cheap and they tend to fail for no reason.

The vehicle has been having transmission issues recently. When accelerating the transmission causes the car to stop and then to jerk forward and shudder. When reversing this has also become an issue. This is extremely concerning, especially when attempting to reach the speed limit on a highway. Even entering normal streets is a cause for concern since the car will stop and shudder suddenly. Because of transmission concerns, I took the vehicle to be serviced and was told the transmission was bad but was out of the extended warranty that Nissan provided as a settlement in a class action lawsuit regarding the transmission issue which appears to be a systemic problem with Nissan's cvt transmission system.

I was merging onto the interstate when the transmission stop pulling right when I got into traffic. The car began to jerk and would not move almost caused me to have a accident because I was not able to get any speed after merging into traffic. I was able to put my blinker on an merge to the shoulder and had to rent a uhaul trailer to pull the car home. My car only have 132,000 miles.

My wife was driving down a road going 50 mph when the transmission started shipping and minutes later the car started jerking heavily and lost power while driving I only have around 130K miles and the cvt transmission went from perfectly fine to speed working in a matter of minutes

- Millville, NJ, USA

Cvt transmission over heat/ failure at 93000 miles. Vehicle after about 1- 2 hours of driving would not move forward or backward while in drive. Blocked traffic for about 30 minutes as police officers were getting a tow truck. After car had been sitting while off for about 30 I was able to start and move it off the road. Nissan recognizes that there is a problem increased transmission warranty to 84K miles. Should be recalled!!! no warning or check engine light has ever come on. Nissan = junk!!

I have a 2013 Nissan Sentra, which I have had continuous problems with the transmission. A year or two ago, it locked up and left me stranded. When I towed it in, and they replaced the entire shifter. They also did an "adjustment" to the transmission. This caused the vehicle to drive poorly. It either would have a lag when accelerating, or would rapidly accelerate. I called to complain after the adjustment. The dealer told me it was and adjustment Nissan required in order keep the transmission from going out. So I put up with it. Unfortunately, I was not able to use the car to teach my kids to drive because of the transmission adjustment. Once it accelerated so instantly that my daughter almost ran through the garage. I talked to the dealer and they said the adjustment was needed and there was nothing they could do. Now guess what, the transmission is going out. It only has around a 105000 miles. It starts jerking and stays stuck in a low grear. Almsot died on the highway. I have had it serviced properly and meticulously. I have put up with the trans adjustment. Now the dealer (rikart Nissan) wants $4200 to fix it. After some research, I have noticed there are tons of class action suits, etc. They say they will not repair or rebuild it. They say it is such a terrible transmission they will only replace the whole thing.
