Pulled into gas station and when trying to leave the car wouldn't shift into gear. It was locked into park and had to call a tow truck. Seen on car complaints .com that nissan owners had contacted nissan and they said nissan wasn't going to do anything about it.

I have had my 2012 sentra for 1 month 1/2 and twice on long distance trips the car had slowed down. Going 80 slowed to 50 and the gas pedal was to the floor. Both times i've had to safely pull off three freeway and sit on the side of the freeway for a 1/2 hour. This is very disappointing otherwise the car is good

While driving on the highway to go to work, the transmission went out. When i tried to accelerate, the car would rev but wouldn't go faster. Luckily, i was able to slow down enough, put on my hazards and stop without being hit by oncoming traffic. Had a cop not been nearby when it happened, i could have been. I had to wait in the middle of the highway for an emergency assistance response man to come and push my car…

Car left running in parking lot after getting out. My problem is different from many but there are still many like me. The car runs so quietly, which is a plus, but in my case it has happened that i leave my car and it is still running and i don't know it. I have a severe hearing loss and depend on visual clues. I wish there were some way to put a light somewhere to alert me. I worry that the next time i will leave…

No lights came on, no sounds or smells either. Once i was in town driving on normal roads it was fine again. Then i drove it back home, same thing…
