The car looks great, interior is nice. But the only thing I car is the car to keep my family safe. The Acceleration should not have to make the care sound like its red lining the motor to just get on high way or pass some one. Driving in snow is like a death trap. It sways all over the highway In and out of snow. I know its not my 4×4 but its not my 2014 Honda civic neither. I drove for first time in snow today and was stuck right away. Car is too low to ground. An the gears in front end grind . I know about the traction control, but it don't work worth nothing. When you turn off it should make tires spine. But it still bogs car down. Not fun when your stuck. Buy a Honda civic not. Sentra. No Sure about the other Nissan vehicles an how they handle and performance but I won't ever buy one again. Sorry Nissan you let me down.

I've had this car for almost 6 months. It has driven me back and forth from SC to Ohio no problem. I really like the sport mode, makes the acceleration comparable to my 04 Camry I had prior. Only downfall is the aforementioned rubber band effect with CVTs. It takes a second to accelerate and get where I need to be unless I floor it, which I really don't like to do. I've used eco mode and it's been fine, no issues. There were a few times when in sport mode that the RPMs stayed fairly high while decelerating. I've had no issues, great gas mileage and it's a beautiful car inside and out. For the money I paid, I'm very pleased and I got exactly what I expected for the price.

Horrible car

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!

Worst Decision Ever

I purchased this 2014 Sentra SR a few months back and within minutes of leaving the dealership I noticed the Shutter/Shudder/Jutter whatever you want to call it. 3 Nissan Dealerships and 200+ technician driven miles later and they still can't come up with a fix. I contacted Nissan North America about a month ago and have been going back and forth with the rudest, most incompetent customer service agents ever. Not only are they impolite and discourteous, but they actually have the nerve to talk down to you like you're some kind of idiot. Anyways, I'll keep everyone here in the loop as this process plays out. In the meantime, AVOID NISSAN LIKE THE PLAGUE!
