The cars have tie rod issues that aren’t safe to be on the road and Nissan knows about the issue but won’t take responsibility for it and the passenger seatbelt is no good and doesn’t protect you during a accident if you have one don’t drive the car until fixed

I bought this car brand new and already had to change the emergency brake sensor, and all 4 door lock actuators because my doors weren’t locking. Every time I connect to the Bluetooth there is at least an 8 second lag. Plus the no seatbelt sound is very annoying as it won’t stop beeping at you even if you’re in a drive through.

Enjoying my new Sentra. Great stereo system and safety features. Live the backup camera, remote start and blind spot indicators. Will test out the cruise contol when I take it on a trup next minth. Just wish it had more pickup as my 2012 Altima has. Otherwise I love the car!

Horrible

First thing gas mileage was exceptional. Fast forward 3 months into the winter now getting 18 sometimes 11 miles to the gallon. Absolutely no acceleration, drives like it’s stuck in low gear. Not even 5,000 miles yet. I keep bringing it in to the shop and they keep saying nothing is wrong. Just a really bad car and now I’m stuck with an expensive piece of junk. I didn’t even care how fast it went. I paid for the style and the mileage.
