Transmisiions, CVT, ARE AWFUL. Nissan is so cheap that they wont even recall the transmission. They have class action suits against them. Really ashame to rob people of their hard earned money.

The one bad thing is the cvt trans every 60k fluid change very expensive 250,00 uses special Nissan only fluid 19.00 a qt and cvt can't be rebuilt when they go a 5,600 job put in new one. The car has many great features great mileage, a lot of room big trunk, nice interior sr has 17 inch tires rear disc rides gd.Has new trans Nissan xtronic says all previous pronblems fixed hope so, car is slow needs more power 1.8 and 130 horse for 2900 lb car is unacceptable. THE TRANSMISSION IS CRAP DO NOT BUY A NISSAN TILL THEY FIX THE TRANS PROBLEMS THEY FAIL EARLY AND OFTEN.. THEY OVERHEAT AND AT 49K MINE WAS ACTING, UP BAD CHANGED FLUID FOR 250.00 NOW IS OK TERRIBLE

I have owned three Sentra's. A 2004 2.4 SR which would move pretty well, but did not get good mileage. A 2012 SR which had a smaller engine, got better gas mileage, handled better and was a good step up from the 2004. And the 2016 SL I have now which is really a nice car. I have owned the Lexus 300 series, 400 series, Camry XLE V6, Nissan Altima V6, 4, Toyota Avalon XLE, Nissan 300ZX, Corvette, just to name a few cars, but this Sentra is really a good upscale feeling car with a touch of luxury and I can't believe I said that. I know that feeling goes away when you push the accelerator to the floor because then you know it is underpowered a bit, but until then and while driving on the highway and around the city it can make your think at least in the leather of the SL that you are in a little luxury sport car. Not bad for a Sentra!

Fuel economy and CVT are my only issues. Ride quality and comfort are great.

This car is not great in different weather conditions. I've had trouble driving in the rain. It tends to get stuck in the snow. I live in a very hilly area and the car rolls back if your foot is not on the brake. Otherwise the car is not too bad. It gets me where I need to go. I love the reverse camera and SiriusXM capabilities.
