Pros: Decent ride. Cons: -Poor acceleration. If you back off accelerator then press the pedal again there is a 1-2 second hesitation. Is dangerous at stop signs and annoying on highway. -Transmission slides into gear and can be jerky and slapping. No solid gear grabbing like an American car. -Paper thin exterior paint (hood is already chipping). -Glove box is huge, but it's mostly door with very little interior shelf storage space. -Car is drafty like an old house. Even with interior heat settings I feel the occasional cold breeze (not a/c). -Average gas mileage is 28mpg (rated at 33/40). -Telescoping steering wheel barely extends, I had to move seat forward to comfortably reach wheel. -Visors are so tall (almost 10 inches) that you have to duck your head to move visor from windshield to side window. Not a very safe design. Also, they're not long enough side-side to block sun from top corner on windshield. -Poor back support in front seats. I have to use pad or packing bubble for proper support. Cause you to slouch on drives lasting more than 5 minutes. -Heat control is very poor. Car will not hold a steady temperature; uneven heat from vents. I am constantly tweaking the heat dial. -Biggest con is that when I turn on the windshield defroster, the A/C comes on and you cannot turn it off! When you switch to defrost the A/C actually kicks in & the temperature drops 25 degrees. Literally! I complained to dealer and to Nissan and was told that this was normal and there was no fix. They said it was designed so the dry A/C air would defrost the windows faster. Who does that? Chicago in January & the last thing I need is the A/C running. (I bought the car in the warm weeks of October, who thinks to check the heater?) -Passenger whistles when there is a cross wind. -I can get around the lacking back support & short reaching steering wheel, but the poor mileage, noisy window & the incredibly annoying HVAC controls/design make this the worst car I have ever owned. I bought my first car in 1970, so that's saying a lot. -My first NEW car in 25 years, and I had to walk into a Nissan dealer. Never again.

Rating it again...premature failure of the CVT transmissions...do yourself a big favor and stay away from all Nissans...they are a crooked car manufacturer.

I have nissan sentra 2015 and only 128000 km on it and the transmission is dead now I am stuck with this [non-permissible content removed]. Nissan is totally crap. This is my first and last Nissan. Please be carefull and check every thing on Google before investing in nissan. Best alternate is Toyota Corolla,Civic and Mazda. Good luck if you are driving Nissan the chances are less.

Stay away from Nissan cars. U heard that before I buy my car but I did not listen. I have been having issues with my car for some times but I never thought will be from my transmission. Until last week stoped working in the middle of the street. The issue is transmission is bad and need to be replaced. My warranty end at 100000 and my mileage now 104000. Nissan refuses to fix it because the warranty expired. Even though there was recall on the transmission but I never got any letter. Any way you feel you are driving junk car after few months of buying the car. You can hear the wind and a lot of cracks at the bottom. Stay away from Nissan. My next car will be Honda or Toyota. For sure not Nissan.

My family has a 20+ year love affair with Nissan. Now, that I have one of my very own I’m excited to keep the love affair going for at least another decade. The Sentra is not made for speed, but I find it responsive and easy to drive. Cruising is the absolute best with little to no road noise. The 38 average MPG is also a nice plus. It’s everything I was looking for in a starter/first car. I’m loving it so far!
