2014 Nissan Sentra S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl CVT)
This is my first brand new car so maybe I am biased but we like our 2014 Sentra. I bought the car April 29 2014 and have driven nearly 2500 miles in a month. Not much road noise, it gets up to speed and cruises just fine, great MPG and I find it comfortable. I have read people complain about the car being underpowered but if you test drove it before buying it, you knew what you were … getting. Driving around 100 miles round trip per day all highway and its great.
Horrible car

2014 Nissan Sentra S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl CVT)
Three days after purchase the transmission went out and Nissan put a new one back in, this car was never misused and was always taken care of. However I always had continued issues with the “new” transmission and finally got tired of it and traded. Will never buy another Nissan again. We sincerely as a family got tired of breaking down all the time and I have never in my life even got a … speeding ticket so the car was never driven improperly, it was just a pos in my opinion. Good riddance!
I'm (still) in love with my car

2014 Nissan Sentra S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl CVT)
Update: One year later, and I feel the same as I did when I first wrote this. The Sentra is roomy, comfortable, dependable and easy on the wallet. She's never going to win a race, but that's not what I had in mind when I purchased, so that's okay!
When my car was reaching 100,000 miles (literally, when I pulled into the dealership to buy my new car, the odometer was at 99, 643), I … decided it was time to look around for a newer car. I wanted something a little bigger, newer and still under warranty. The 2014 Nissan Sentra had exactly what I was looking for, at a very comfortable price. She drives great, although I can see why some people don't care for the CVT - it takes some getting used to. The fuel economy is fantastic, the ride is smooth, and my 6'4" husband has plenty of room to stretch out. I feel confident that she'll keep me going until I hit 100,000 miles or so. Even though she's a 2014, the prior owner took meticulous care, so she feels and looks like a brand new car. I'd highly recommend this car to anyone.
Beware of those CVT transmission

My dad bought a 2014 Nissan Sentra S two years ago, the ride is comfortable but the transmission went out 2 days ago. He bought it at around 55 000 km (not miles, but km) and it went out at 86 000km. Called Nissan Canada as well as one of their dealership, they wouldn't budge to offer a free transmission replacement. There is a class action lawsuit against Nissan Canada in the province … where I live (QC) so that they can cover these repairs which will take years to settle in courts. It's a known fact that their CVT breaks often, so many lawsuits in Canada and USA. Don't buy ever a Nissan, no wonder why their resale values are so low, no wonder why Scotty hates them.
