I have read many other reviews from very satisfied customers to whining and moaning/groaning. Its a Nissan Sentra, not a Lexus. For the money it is a great car. I am returning a 2013 from lease and picking up a 2016. I have had 0 problems with my 2013. Gas mileage is fantastic. I drive a lot, mostly highway. Average mileage per tank was 375. Pretty good considering other cars. I occasionally hit 400+ miles per tank. It is comfortable to drive, has enough features for me. I am pretty simple. Good radio, Bluetooth for cell phone, convenience buttons on the wheel. Folding back seats make good added storage. It IS lackluster in acceleration but that is due to the CVT transmission and lack of horsepower - this engine and transmission are built for economy not speed. Again, its a Nissan Sentra, really the 2nd level sedan Nissan offers (just above the Versa). Great car for the money. Best gas mileage, like all cars it is at 55mph. Don't expect 40mpg on the highway if you routinely drive 70+. Looking forward to the 2016 with added standard options like back up camera and streaming music via Bluetooth.

bad transmission

I was backing out of my driveway which is up on a little hill , As I almost got out to the street to go forward my car died, halfway in the driveway and halfway in the street. Its been in the shop for two days and not up and running yet. I am very disappointed with it. 10,000 miles and less than a year this happens. But better in my driveway than out on a interstate going to work and it dies in traffic. No more Nissans for me

Run from the Lemons

I have been in contact with them after complaining to the BBB and they still have done nothing for me. They sell Lemons and do not stand by there product. My car I bought brand new and is a 2015 Nissan Sentra and has been in the shop at least 6 times for the same issue yet they keep fixing other things when I know its the Transmission. They have fixed the throttle body, Mass Air Flow Sensor, and oxygen sensor and yet I still have the same issue. Car refuses to go above 35mph and then stalls and shuts off. This happened while my wife and I as well as my 2 young children were on the highway, I tried to get to the shoulder and it shut off locking the steering wheel, a semi missed us by maybe a foot and thank God for us swerved and missed us. This car will kill one of us and Nissan doesn't care. They said just keeping taking the car in for repairs, but no worries they will honor the warranty and keep fixing everything but the Transmission. People for the love of God do not risk your families lives STAY AWAY FROM NISSAN CARS.

Of the 56 other reviews, it's my belief that car dealers should have a mandatory class for every new car buyer. No one reads the owner's manual and a pass/fail exam should be given long before a credit report is done to ensure that the only people allowed to buy brand new are those who, not only read the owner's manual from cover-to-cover, but that special attention is given to the gray box on page 5-26 and memorized verbatim. I see all the new cars on the interstates at above speed limits; no plates yet and shiny undersides, putting the gas pedal to the floorboard the first time it's been anywhere. It is no wonder those people are having problems! Currently, my 2015 FE+ is under 120,000 miles and not one problem! Not even in double-digit below zero weather in North Dakota or above 90 degree heat. Seriously, this car rocks! I was a little reluctant to buy it, as I had a 1981 Datsun 310GX and let it be repossessed due to two broken motormounts. This is mine and my wife's second Nissan -- ever. I feel for those who had a bad experience, but I am sure dealers still have clunker cars they could buy instead and run them into the ground, since the vast majority can't handle a brand new one.

Our transmission went out 60k. Cost was $4200 on a 3 year old car. Dealer was no help to try to get Nissan to help us out. I bought a new car to avoid high repair bills. After a few months the tranny was making the same noise. We trade that car and lost a lot of money because 3 dealers did not want it. Bought a Hyndai Ionic. There is class action law suits. I got my money back after 3 years. Stay far away from Nissan
