UPDATE: 10/9/19: 9mos later & the drivers seat is still hard as a rock and causes my right leg to go numb and created a constant stiffness in my lower back. The sides of the seat curve upwards and my rear end rests on the highest part while driving. My masseuse even asked if I sat on thick Wallet because I was so stiff on one side! Anyone who rides in the passenger seat says it’s uncomfortable and stiff also. The Gigantic headrest which pushed my chin to my chest and caused a pinched nerve has since been turned backwards and I no longer have that issue. (The dealership said many people have this issue so he knew what to do right away) The car is a reliable car that’s good on gas except if you’re stuck in NYC traffic on the BQE daily. I’ve noticed it eats 1/8 tank more than the 2015 Sentra. Two more years on this lease and it can’t come fast enough! I can’t wait to get rid of it and Nissan has lost a loyal customer due to their lack of support. I filed a complaint with corporate consumer affairs within 3 days of getting this car- and they couldn’t care less. ——————- I had a 2015 Sentra SR which I loved except that it was slow as snails so when i heard they came out with a Turbo with a 7" touch screen i was stoked. However this car misses the mark and after less than 2 weeks I have asked Nissan consumer affairs to step in and help me return the car. Pros: 7" touch screen, 188HP opposed to 122HP on standard Sentra, extra large backseat, streamlined dash, climate & radio controls, smoother functioning radio all around. CONS: -the drivers seat is uncomfortable- Stiff, small and doesn't give. Not to mention the bottom portion of the seat tilts backwards which leaves your body in an awkward position you cannot adjust with the power seat. my right leg goes numb and i get a shooting pain down my leg & my lower back kills me. This is VERY uncomfortable esp. since I drive 61 miles round trip to work and it feels like i'm sitting on hard floors while driving. -the headrest is awkward and protrudes from the backrest which extends my head an inch or 2 from the rest of my body- no matter how i adjust the seats or headrest. It is overstuffed and there are other reviews about the 2017 model about this too. -the seats are HARD. different passengers mentioned their seat is uncomfortable and the drivers seat isn't much different - GLARES! the matte-chrome accents on the vents and ultra illuminated dash board reflect off the drivers windows and side mirror so much that it obstructs my view. It's similar to a mirror reflection- and yes, I've dimmed the dash lights too. I've had to drive with the window DOWN in the RAIN in order to see on the highway when switching lanes.

Air bags

Not good with the air bags. A friend of mine hit a buck going about 35 MPH. Demolished the whole front end of the car and the air bags never went off. That is unacceptable. The buck was at least 200 lbs . So why is my question???? Not a very safe care anyways.

I'm not sure what the complaints about power are doing here. Ours seems to have plenty of pep. This is an economy car. My wife remarked that it seems ready to take off if she isn't careful. We aren't large people and the seats and appointments are perfect for us. The car drives smooth and handling is sharp to us. The car is my wife ride and it will take a while to figure everything out. Economy is good at about 30 mpg. The car drives about 4 miles to work in city driving. The minivan it replaced never got more than 14 mpg all year long. My Versa is cramped. This car is not and feels great on the highway. My wife's confidence in the car will allow further trips as needed instead of making me drive. No bad habits. Easy to maintain. What's not to like?

UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVERS SEAT

The seatbelt clasp stabs my hip. Not made for average large people. Small drivers seat. Drives ok, infotainment is easy to operate. Glad I rented it before buying.
