My 2014 Nissan Sentra was starting to slip as I was driving, mind you my car has only 113 thousand plus miles on it. After taking it to the dealer after paying 140 dollars to have have the code read, I was told that I needed a new transmission, 31036-9am2A. They said it was a common issue that Nissan knows about and gave me the costumer service number to call, with a $3600 cost estimate. After leaving the dealer I called Nissan and they told me that due to the mileage there was nothing they could do. After hearing this I began to do some research and I found that this is indeed a common issue that has been going on with Nissan cvt transmissions. They have extended some warranties to 120 thousand miles or 5 years however I was told my car mileage excludes me from this warranty. What years are included in this warranty. Please help.

Nissan cvt transmissions durability is under a class-action lawsuit, and their response to extended warranties to cover the issues is insufficient and in disregard of the current pandemic. Nissan does not explain why 7 years or 84000 miles were chosen as the cutline to provide coverage. If 7 years is the decided coverage, which is unsatisfactory for transmissions, the corresponding mileage should be 94500, not 84000 based on "the U.S. department of transportation's federal highway administration states the average person drives around 13,500 miles every year.". Nissan must explain this coverage limits decision and extend the warranty period amid the pandemic to avoid negligence.

But nissian has not recalled yet why? it has been making noise for years and dealer said it was normal, now a different dealer says no you need new transmission.

Hi I have 3 issues with my car, it's a 2014 Nissan centra, the first issue is the transmission it's really bad I have already too it to a Nissan dealership an said they fixed the issue but it's still doing the same thing, when you go to take off from a red light or stop sign it wants to hesitate taking off, it spitting and jerks and the transmission doesn't want to change gears, I have a automatic but it acts like a straight shift so when it hesitates I have to push the gas nor to get it to go but if you mash the gas to hard it will take off fast after it spits, it is very dangerous, I have almost slammed into the back of a few vehicles because of this problem, I have tried to pull out from a side road and a car would be coming an I know I have time to get out but when the transmission wants to act crazy an it starts hesitating to go, I have almost been hit several times. That's not all my other issue is with the air conditioner, this is the 3rd time it has went out in the last year, I went and had it serviced an they said it was the air compressor, I took it to pep boys and the guy that looked at it he told me that he has had 47 Nissan centras in the last two months to be serviced for the same reasons, well one day the air conditioning was fine but the next day I went to turn it on and it is blowing nothing but hot air so he checked it and he said the compressor went out again!! the other issue is yesterday I went to get dinner and all of a sudden the engine light came on. And my car doesn't even have 40,000 miles on it yet, I really hope writing to you about these things going wrong will open the Nissan company's eyes before someone actually get killed driving one of their cars. Thank you very much!!! for taking the time out of your day to read this. And I hope you can get to the bottom of these issues before someone really gets hurt, all these problems in 3 weeks.

Shuttering, unexpected power surges, hesitation, stalling, and of course lots of bad noises in general. I found numerous Nissan transmission lawsuits filled regarding 2014 Sentra prone to shaking, jerking, sudden downshifts. I am unable to drive my vehicle and have been told it needs a transmission and this vehicle has a long history of issues.

Extreme noise from transmission at idle, slow to accelerate, car knocks when slowing down and speeding

For the past couple of weeks, I've noticed a jerkiness with my vehicle. When I accelerate, it feels as if the car is pulling back toward me. I took it to the dealer and was told it would cost more than $4,000 for a new transmission. I've noticed many owners with similar concerns on this website. There needs to be a recall immediately. Owner should not have to pay for defects with these cars when the dealers/manufacturers are responsible.

The battery and transmission are failing, this car has been giving me issues since I purchased the vehicle. No one cares to help me and I've still been having issues with to this day.

Purchased certified pre owned Nissan Sentra 2014 from pinebelt dealership with 67K miles on it Jan 8th 2018. Nissan was well aware of the trans issues however I was not. And the salesman went out of his way to tell me the trans lasts the life of the car. I purchased the extended warranty. Car just hit 104K miles. While taking it in for an oil change the receptionist told me the mechanic heard a noise and wanted me to consent to a $160 diagnostic. I said I don't hear a noise there aren't any lights on. Sure enough they told me the trans is bad and will cost me 4500 to replace. I owe $7900 on the car currently. No one would finance a car and expect the trans 2 go in 2 years. The car started acting up less than 5 days after visiting the dealership. It wont go over 50 mph its shaking badly. Its making whining noises and starts jerking. I drive on the highway every day. Im going to get slammed. The car is a death trap. I brought it to a private mechanic for a 2nd opinion. He confirmed the trans is slipping and he had a car lot with half a dozen 2014 Sentra waiting on a new trans. I reached out to Nissan and asked for help. Haven't heard anything. These cars are so unsafe its terrifying driving them.
