2016 Nissan Sentra

LOUD WIND SOUND WHEN DRIVING PASSES 55MPH ON THE FREEWAY BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE MAKES LOUD HOWLING SOUND AS THE WIND HITS AND CROSSES THROUGH BOTH SIDES OF MY VEHICLE. THE WIND HOWLING SOUND IS REALLY LOUD WHEN MY CAR IS DRIVING AGAINST THE WIND ON THE FREEWAY, I BELIEVE THAT ALL OF THE RUBBER LINING ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED AND RESEALED CORRECTLY PROFESSIONALLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING ON TWO OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUTHERLIN NISSAN OF FT MYERS (13985 S TAMIAMI TRAIL, FORT MYERS, FL 33912, (239) 415-8600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

LETTER RECEIVED FROM NISSAN REGARDING POSSIBLE FRONT AIR BAG PASSENGER SENSOR MALFUNCTION. OUR SENSOR MALFUNCTIONS INCONSISTENTLY WITH THE SAME INDIVIDUAL SITTING IN THE SEAT (WEIGHING 110-115 LBS) WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION; SYSTEM WORKS PROPERLY AT TIMES INDICATING PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT, AND THEN AT OTHER TIMES NOTES AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. WE'RE NOW ENCOUNTERING DIFFICULTIES WITH NISSAN CORRECTING/FIXING THE ACKNOWLEDGED (BY NISSAN) PROBLEM DUE TO THE INCONSISTENT NATURE OF THE ISSUE. CONCERNED THE SYSTEM WON'T WORK CORRECTLY UPON POTENTIAL COLLISION AND REQUESTING THE SENSOR THAT IS MALFUNCTIONING BE REPLACED.

NEW CAR WITH SEVERAL INCIDENCES WHEN TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS AND NEEDING TO STOP THE VEHICLE THE BREAKS FELT SLUGGISH, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP WHERE I INTENDED, AND IT MADE SOUNDS. I WENT TO SEVERAL NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND THEY EACH TOLD ME THE BREAK SYSTEM WAS OK AND I JUST NEEDED TO GET THE FEEL OF A NISSAN SENTRA. I TOLD THEM THAT WAS NOT THE CASE BECAUSE I OWNED SEVERAL NISSAN SENTRAS. THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I INCREASED MY STOPPING DISTANCE BECAUSE I DIDN'T TRUST THE CAR. I GOT INTO A MINOR FENDER BENDER. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME ONLY HAD A SMALL SCRATCH. I WAS GOING AT LOW SPEEDS WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED. UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS I HAD PLENTY OF ROOM TO STOP. HOWEVER, MY CAR DIDN'T BEHAVE NORMALLY. I HIT THE BREAK AS HARD AS I COULD, BUT IT WAS SLUGGISH AND STILL MOVING. THE FRONT-END EMERGENCY BREAKING SYSTEM STARTED BEEPING. I COULDN'T SWERVE THE CAR BECAUSE THERE WHERE CARS ON MY SIDES. I CONTINUED HITTING THE BREAK AS HARD AS I COULD, AND MY SYSTEM BEEPED AND FLASHED AGAIN. THE SYSTEM COULDN'T FULLY STOP THE CAR EITHER. BEFORE MOVING MY CAR I CALLED THE NISSAN NUMBER THE MANUAL SAYS TO CALL. I TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND ASKED THEM TO GET THE EVENT DATA RECORDER INFORMATION. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT TO A DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ONLY DOWNLOADED CODES AND WHAT I WAS DESCRIBING WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND AFTER LOOKING INTO IT THEY DECIDED THEY WOULD REPLACE A VALVE IN THE TRANSMISSION UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID THAT A PART ALSO NEEDED REPLACING BECAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT. THEY SAID THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER. I ASKED FOR DOCUMENTATION OF WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO TO MY CAR AND THEY REFUSED AND SAID I WOULD GET IT AT THE END. NOW THE PART IS FURTHER BACKORDERED. THEY WON'T PAY FOR A RENTAL AND ARE NOW SAYING THAT IF I WANT OUT OF MY LEASE THEY NEED TO DO AN 8 WEEK INVESTIGATION. I WANTED THE INVESTIGATION OVER 2 MONTHS AGO!

WHILE BRAKING THE AIR CONDITIONING SHUTS OFF. THE DEALER SAY THEY HAVE "FIXED" THE PROBLEM TWICE AND THEN ON MY 3RD ATTEMPT TO HAVE IT FIXED THEY INFORMED ME IT IS A "NORMAL WORKING CONDITION" THEY THEN TOLD ME I WAS TO BE REMOVED FROM THEIR SURVEY LIST BECAUSE OF A POTENTIALLY BAD REVIEW AND THEN WAS TOLD I COULDN'T BRING THE CAR BACK FOR THIS ISSUE ANYMORE.

I PURCHASED A CAR FROM WILSON MOTOR COMPANY AND WAS TOLD IT WAS ONLY USED AS A RENTAL BY THEIR CUSTOMERS WHILE THEIR CAR WAS IN THE SHOP. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE CAR AND THEY HAVE FOUGHT ME ON WARRANTIES TO COVER. WHEN I WENT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP THEY PULLED THE AUTOCHECK REPORT TO FIND THAT THE CAR HAD BEEN PURCHASED FROM AN AUCTION IN CA AND IS SHOWING A TITLE BRAND FOR FRAME OR STRUCTURAL DAMAGE RECORD AND A POSSIBLE ODOMETER ROLLBACK. THE TIRES ARE WEARING UNEVENLY AND ARE NOT SAFE AND I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE BRAKES OUT OF MY POCKET. I CAN'T TRADE THE CAR IN DUE TO THIS REPORT. I WAS LIED TO AND NOW I CAN'T GET WARRANTY SERVICE OR ABLE TO TRADE THE CAR IN FOR SOMETHING ELSE. I CANNOT GET THE GENERAL MANAGER TO RETURN MY MESSAGES.

ONGOING AND SIGNIFICANT ACCELERATION PROBLEMS; MOST NOTABLE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION TO 40-45 MPH. THE RPMS WILL REV BETWEEN 5-6 (BUT STILL STRUGGLE). ONCE THE CAR HITS AROUND 40MPH THERE ARE LESS PROBLEMS. OCCASIONALLY FEEL THAT THE CAR IS STALLING OUT AT HIGHER SPEEDS (IE ON HIGHWAY). PROBLEMS ARE INTERMITTENT, MOST NOTABLE WHEN CAR IS COLD. REPORTED TO DEALERSHIP, BROUGHT IN FOR CHECK. THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY ANY RELATED 'COMPUTER CODES' - FEEL I AM BEING IGNORED DESPITE MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS AT AN INTERSECTION, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE FRONT END OF HIS VEHICLE. THE SPEED WAS UNKNOWN. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW YARD. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. *TT *TR
