Sentra

  • miles
I have a 2019 Nissan Sentra with only 17,000 miles. The seatbelt indicator light stays on even while wearing the seatbelt. There is no warning chime just the light. However, if there is a passenger the seatbelt indicator light will go off. My concern is for the passenger's safety. I'm concerned if everything will work like it should especially if there happens to be an accident and the airbags deploy.

Sentra

At the beginning of June in 2021 my car started showing signs of failing to start. This led to some problems with it driving and the automatic braking system causing problems. The dealer ship fix the piece that connects under the brakes. It was some kind of sensor. This on June 12 of 2021. March 28 2022 I had the problem my car was not starting. I took it in to the dealership they replaced my battery March 29th my check engine light came on I got to codes PO 101 and PO 315. I paid to get the sensors repaid and was told that my crankshaft should be all right if I clean it or I can replace it. I took the car in again April 20 because it was failing to start. The individual who help me in services had the same problem. They brought out their mechanic and the mechanic said no codes were shown. She explained to me that it might be an issue with the Battery that they replaced. I have taken the car to the same dealership to get everything fixed I have also worked with the same person in regards to my problems

Sentra 4-cyl

  • 2,000 miles
Hello my name is [xxx]. I have a story I would like ran. On Jan. 23, 2020 I bought a brand new Nissan Sentra. The car cost over 18,000 dollars. It had 24 miles on it when I pulled off the lot. On the morning of Feb. 15, 2020 at less than a month of ownership my teen daughter's and I was heading into town for breakfast. We were running down the highway at 55 mph when the curtain airbags deployed at random. No wreck or accident of any kind. My left ear drum was busted and my daughter was massively bruised. I took the car back to the dealership and they issued a rental. 5 days later they called and told me the rental had to be returned and Nissan was not going to give any financial assistance of any kind. I called Consumer Affairs to see why the rental was being taken back. I was informed rudely that they would not be helping in any way and airbags were a complex machine that did not deploy without cause. And then went on to accuse me of fraud. The car finally got inspected at Nissan of cookeville by a consumer inspector who stood with me and confirmed that the car was not wrecked and the malfunction was not my fault. I just today heard back from Consumer Affairs today for them to tell me that Nissan would not be helping me in any way. And velocity had something to do with the random deploy and that's what airbags are supposed to do. So he literally told me that airbags are supposed to deploy sometimes without any collision. They have forced me to drive this car for a month and a half with my view obstructed and seatbelts not working with my children and now tells me they will not stand behind their vehicles malfunction and it is on me to deal with. They will also tell you they have never had trouble with airbags but there has been a huge recall about unsafe deploying airbags for a lot of Nissan vehicles. Please help me. Consumer stated manufacture and dealer has been contacted but vehicle has not been repaired.
