2014 NISSAN SENTRA Engine Problems

While driving, I noticed smoke coming from the front of the vehicle. Within moments, flames appeared in the engine area and spread quickly, causing severe damage to the front portion of the car including the engine, electrical system, and body. No warning lamps, error messages, or unusual behavior were observed prior to the incident. The fire started suddenly without any indication of mechanical or electrical issues. My safety and the safety of others nearby were put at risk as the fire escalated rapidly. The problem has not been reproduced or inspected by the manufacturer or dealer yet, but the vehicle was completely disabled and is no longer operable due to the fire damage. Cause of the fire is UNKNOWN at this time.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated while driving 35-65 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle was slow to respond and to stop. The brake pedal was depressed to the floorboard. The contact stated that the engine, traction control, and ABS warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the brakes needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the same local dealer where it was diagnosed, and it was determined that the oxygen sensor, rotors, and brake pads needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure persisted. While driving, the vehicle started to stall. The brake pedal was depressed but the vehicle was slow to respond. The manufacturer was contacted and a complaint was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 46,000.

Mileage: 46,000

While I’m driving it starts to stall. Especially after I press on the breaks and try to press on the gas again it being ins to like jerk and not want to go. I thought it was my suspension or that it needed a wheel alignment but after paying for those to get renewed it’s still having that problem and the mechanic said it was most likely the transmission.

Transmission failure in under 3 years. I replaced my transmission and rear assembly in 2022-23. It started with pressing the gas pedal and the car wouldn’t accelerate while in heavy traffic. I spent over $3,000 on a brand new engine. Come 2024 the exact same problem with the repair price being quoted at around $7,000. There was no hard driving on the car so I don’t understand how it’s going so soon. I’ve never had so much trouble with a car.

I've looked up the years of my vehicle and the year 2014 falls within transmission problems. Cvt to be exact. My transmission just went out and zero chance of fixing. $5000 minimum. Cut has been known to have faults

Entire car needs repairs problems with starting

Car slips and jerks when accelerating at any speed as low as 10 mph. Check engine light came on, code is transmission failure. The code came on before routine maintenance was required. The car was not fixed and should have not had this issue happen.

My Nissan Sentra burst into flames on July 27,2022-not sure why this occurred; the car was last serviced before this incident on June 17, 2022-the car's Compressor/AC were replaced. I had just parked the car at a hotel when the fire began. The only inspection was from a fire marshal and the insurance company that car was a complete loss. There was no warning when this happened and had I had a full tank of gasoline this would have gravely injured me. The car had seven years of meticulous upkeep so this catastrophe was totally unexpected. The autos parked on either side of me suffered serious damage as well.

FIRENo INJURIES0 DEATHS0 The transmission slipping. I would press the gas to try and get the car to move but it would drag The RPM’s kept jumping back and forth causing the car to shake . After making it back my check engine light came on and the car wouldn’t back in once I finally got it home

The transmission in my car kept slipping. I would press the gas to try and get the car to accelerate but it would not. The RPM’s kept jumping back and forth causing the car to stutter. After letting it sit for a while it stuttered all the way home. After making it back my check engine light came on and the car would no longer move.

FUEL PUMP FAILURE AT 75K MILES. RESULTED IN VEHICLE SPUTTERING, THEN STALLING, DASHBOARD LIGHTS GOING OUT AND THEN TURNING BACK ON WITH MORE THAN HALF A TANK DIFFERENCE IN THE FUEL READING, AND THEN RAN OUT OF GAS ENTIRELY. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP WHO DENIED THERE BEING AN OPEN RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE EVER, WHICH IS INCORRECT AS I'VE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FROM A RECALL. THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY UNSTABLE AND IS NOW ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS HOLDING BRAKE FLUID. CAN'T FILL TANK AT THE GAS STATION EITHER BECAUSE REFUELING STOPS IMMEDIATELY EVERY TWO SECONDS AFTER TURNING ON EVEN IF YOU PHYSICALLY HOLD IT THERE... YOU CONTINUE TO HAVE TO CLICK IT BACK ON BECAUSE THE FUEL IS NOT ACCEPTED BY THE VEHICLE. THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED ENTIRELY. IT IS UNSAFE AND HAS STRANDED ME 3 TIMES AND REPAIRS HAVE BEEN UNREASONABLE. NISSAN MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND ISSUE RECALLS THAT WILL FIX THE ISSUES FREE OF CHARGE. AS OF TODAY I'VE BEEN ASKED TO INVEST ANOTHER $3,000.00 TO FIX IT, BUT IT'S WORTH LESS THAN THAT NOW.

HI I HAVE 3 ISSUES WITH MY CAR, IT'S A 2014 NISSAN CENTRA, THE FIRST ISSUE IS THE TRANSMISSION IT'S REALLY BAD I HAVE ALREADY TOO IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AN SAID THEY FIXED THE ISSUE BUT IT'S STILL DOING THE SAME THING, WHEN YOU GO TO TAKE OFF FROM A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN IT WANTS TO HESITATE TAKING OFF, IT SPITTING AND JERKS AND THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T WANT TO CHANGE GEARS, I HAVE A AUTOMATIC BUT IT ACTS LIKE A STRAIGHT SHIFT SO WHEN IT HESITATES I HAVE TO PUSH THE GAS NOR TO GET IT TO GO BUT IF YOU MASH THE GAS TO HARD IT WILL TAKE OFF FAST AFTER IT SPITS, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS, I HAVE ALMOST SLAMMED INTO THE BACK OF A FEW VEHICLES BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE TRIED TO PULL OUT FROM A SIDE ROAD AND A CAR WOULD BE COMING AN I KNOW I HAVE TIME TO GET OUT BUT WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WANTS TO ACT CRAZY AN IT STARTS HESITATING TO GO, I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES. THAT'S NOT ALL MY OTHER ISSUE IS WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER, THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IT HAS WENT OUT IN THE LAST YEAR, I WENT AND HAD IT SERVICED AN THEY SAID IT WAS THE AIR COMPRESSOR, I TOOK IT TO PEP BOYS AND THE GUY THAT LOOKED AT IT HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAS HAD 47 NISSAN CENTRAS IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS TO BE SERVICED FOR THE SAME REASONS, WELL ONE DAY THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS FINE BUT THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO TURN IT ON AND IT IS BLOWING NOTHING BUT HOT AIR SO HE CHECKED IT AND HE SAID THE COMPRESSOR WENT OUT AGAIN!! THE OTHER ISSUE IS YESTERDAY I WENT TO GET DINNER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AND MY CAR DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 40,000 MILES ON IT YET, I REALLY HOPE WRITING TO YOU ABOUT THESE THINGS GOING WRONG WILL OPEN THE NISSAN COMPANY'S EYES BEFORE SOMEONE ACTUALLY GET KILLED DRIVING ONE OF THEIR CARS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT OF YOUR DAY TO READ THIS. AND I HOPE YOU CAN GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THESE ISSUES BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS HURT, ALL THESE PROBLEMS IN 3 WEEKS.

I WAS SITTING IN TRAFFIC AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED GREEN I PRESSED THE GAS PETAL TO DRIVE AND MY CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN ON ITS OWN AND IT JUST CUT OFF AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR TO MAKE IT HOME. ALSO WHILE DRIVING I COULD FEEL THE CAR SHAKING OR VIBRATING, EVEN WHEN I SLOWED DOWN OR CAME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT IT WAS SHAKING/VIBRATING, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS IS. I DID HAVE MY CAR SERVICED LAST MONTH AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AND WASN'T SURE WHY THE LIGHT WAS ON. IT HAS BEEN A MONTH AND MY ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I WORRY WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER IF MY CAR IS GOING TO CUT OFF AGAIN WHILE I'M DRIVING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, I ALSO WORRY EVERY TIME I FEEL IT SHAKE/VIBRATE THINKING ITS GOING TO CUT OFF. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND WORRISOME. I HOPE THIS ISSUE CAN BE RESOLVED- NOT A HAPPY NISSAN OWNER RIGHT NOW.

TRANSMISSION MAKES LOUD NOISE

I AM TERRIFIED. GOING UP A HILL MY CAR LOSES POWER AND I START COASTING AROUND 40MPH AND STRUGGLE TO MAINTAIN THE SPEED OF TRAFFIC THE HIGHEST I CAN GO IS 60MPH. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN INVOLVED IN MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS AS A RESULT AND OFTEN HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO SQUEEZES MYSELF INTO THE HE TRUCK LANE ALTHOUGH THEY STILL ARE ABLE TO OVER TAKE ME. MY CAR HAS 50,000 MILES AND IS WELL KEPT BUT IT STRUGGLES SO MUCH GOING UPHILL I CAN FEEL THE WHIRRING AND IT'S LIKE MY TRANSMISSION IS STRUGGLING TO KEEP UP WHILE EVERYONE PASSES ME AND TRIES TO AVOID COLLIDING WITH ME AS A RESULT OF MY SUDDEN DROP IN SPEED. NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESS THE GAS NOTHING HAPPENS AND I FEEL UNSAFE AND FEEL I AM A DANGER TO OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I HEARD THEY ATTEMPTED TO FIX THE ISSUE BUT THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING MORE THAT CAN BE DONE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. YOU CAN EVEN BORROW MY CAR IF YOU'D LIKE TO TEST THIS OUT. I ALSO FEEL IT MAY CAUSE EXCESSIVE OVERHEATING.

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD COUNTLESS SPORADIC ACCELERATION ISSUES AND FEEL AS THOUGH IT WOULD STALL/LOOSE POWER BUT IT HAS ACTUALLY COMPLETELY STALLED ON ME ON 3 OCCASIONS. 1ST TIME: I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ABOUT 10 MPH LOOKING FOR A PARKING SPOT AND AS I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD SHUDDER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THEN THE ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPPED AS I WAS TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE PARKING LOT. I HAD TO RESTART THE ENGINE. I TOOK THE CARE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 3,300 MILES ON IT. I WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIND/RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND THE CAR DID NOT HAVE A RECALL. NOTHING WAS DONE. 2ND TIME: I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN A REGULAR STREET AT ABOUT 30 MPH AND AS I TRIED ACCELERATING, THE CAR STARTED SHUDDERING AND AGAIN, WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ANY MORE. I HAD TO COAST/PULL THE CAR OVER INTO A NEARBY NEIGHBORHOOD. 3RD TIME: I WAS ON THE FREEWAY GOING ABOUT 50 MPH WHEN THE CAR WOULD JERK AS I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, THE RPM GAGE JUMPED AROUND, AND THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER SO I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY. THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE ENOUGH TO ENTER THE FREEWAY AT A SAFE SPEED, BUT WOULD ONLY GET TO A SAFE SPEED AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FORWARD IN THE EMERGENCY LANE FOR A FEW MINUTES. THEN, AFTER I WAS ABLE TO ENTER THE FREEWAY, THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER AGAIN AND I WOULD HAVE TO COAST OFF TO THE EDGE OF THE FREEWAY AWAY FROM SPEEDING VEHICLES. IT WAS NIGHT TIME AND VISIBILITY WAS LOW BECAUSE IT WAS A UNLIT HIGHWAY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT BETWEEN NEVADA AND ARIZONA. I WAS LUCKY NOT HAVE BEEN HIT BY A CAR. I TOWED THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEED REPLACING. IT COST $4,607.83 (WITH CAR RENTAL) TO REPLACE. THE CAR HAD ABOUT 77,000 MILES AT THE TIME. I DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE ANYMORE, EVEN AFTER THE REPLACED TRANSMISSION. *DT ..*BF *JB

WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN SENTRA (66,000 MILES) ON THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED THE RPMS STARTED FLUCTUATING, FOLLOWED BY DIFFICULTY SHIFTING. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND CAME TO A FULL STOP. THE CAR WAS THEN UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. PUTTING IT IN PARK, TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AND ON AGAIN ALLOWED ME TO ACCELERATE AND DRIVE TO A GAS STATION. I CALLED MY MECHANIC, HE SAID IT COULD BE CONTAMINATED GAS, AND DIRECTED ME TO FIND A NEARBY AUTOZONE, WHERE AN EMPLOYEE SCANNED THE CAR AND AGREED IT WAS CONTAMINATED GAS. I PURCHASED SEAFOAM AND PUT IT IN THE GAS TANK, WITH ASSURANCES THAT THIS WOULD CLEAR UP THE ISSUE BUT THE RIDE MAY BE 'BUMPY'. I DECIDED TO FINISH MY DRIVE TO NEW ORLEANS. UPON ENTERING NEW ORLEANS AND SHIFTING TO STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, IT WAS APPARANT THE ISSUE HAD NOT RESOLVED ITSELF. THE VEHICLE WAS BARELY ACCELERATING OR SHIFTING. IT FELT VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THROUGH AN UNKNOWN CITY. THE FOLLOWING MORNING, I BROUGHT IT TO AUTOZONE AGAIN, THIS TIME THE SCAN SHOWED ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I HAD A TECHNICIAN REBOOT THE COMPUTER, BUT NOTHING CHANGED. NOT KNOWING THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE AND BEING 500+ MILES FROM HOME AND MY MECHANIC, I DECIDED TO RISK THE DRIVE BACK TO NASHVILLE, HAVING HAD EVERYONE AT THE AUTOZONE AND MY MECHANIC TELL ME AT 66K MILES THE TRANSMISSON SHOULD NOT NEED TO BE SERVICES. THE CAR WAS CLEARLY HAVING ISSUES, BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO HIGHWAY SPEED. I MADE IT TO ABOUT 200 MILES OUTSIDE OF NASHVILLE WHEN IT SIMPLY BECAME TOO UNSAFE FOR ME TO CONTINUE ON THE HIGHWAY. I GOT A TOW 200M HOME, DIRECTLY TO MY MECHANIC. HE INSPECTED THE TRANSMISSION THE FOLLOWING DAY AND FOUND THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS DANGEROUSLY LOW WITH NO SIGN OF LEAKAGE. AFTER CHANGING THE FLUID, HE DETERMINED THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I TOOK IT INTO CARMAX, WHERE I HAS PURCHASED THE VEHICLE JUST OVER A YEAR PRIOR. THEY CAME TO THE SAME CONCLUSION.
