Purchased my car in aug. Of 2017. Jan. 2018 was the first of 7 times i have taken my car in for the check engine light. Case is at nissan north america in arbitration where they want to 'compensate' me $1500 to essentially shut my mouth. There is a significant lag in the acceleration not only from a standstill , but also while in motion trying to accelerate to higher speeds. The car will not go faster than 55 mph up…

When at a standstill or moving at low speed, when the accelerator if fully depressed it intermittently does not stop accelerating despite the removal of pressure on said accelerator. This causes the vehicle to accelerate uncontrollably. Only by constantly engaging the accelerator in a violent manner does the vehicle finally cease accelerating. This condition has caused some extremely dangerous driving conditions…

Vehicle Speed Control
When driving with cruise control set, the cruise control will disengage on its own. When it disengages on its own, the vehicle speed drops as much as 10 mph in 1 to 2 seconds. Also when it disengages on its own, the tachometer will blip up and down before the engine restores the power to the wheels.

Vehicle Speed Control
When accelerating, it nose dives at around 30 to 45 mph, depending on how hard one is accelerating. I believe this is caused by a shift sensor because it acts like it lets go of the gear and after a second or two it engages into the next gear. This happens every time one wants to go over 50 mph. Also, when coming a complete stand still stop and then star to accelerate, it hesitates a bit and it makes a bumping…

Bought 2017 nissan sentra brand new from dealership and was very unfairly overcharged. I was charged $23,014.53 for a car that was only worth $16,000 and has so many issues. Gas tank sometimes will stop at 200 miles and will not fill up, speedometer shoots up and down while driving, speed does not stay at a certain speed and slows down automatically. The engine jerks and sputters while driving on freeways and…

Car is dangerously slow to accelerate when attempting to merge onto a freeway or a busy street. Even with flooring the accelerator, vehicle will not move past 40mph for about 5-8 seconds, which in driving, is a large amount of time, especially merging onto the freeway.

Nissan sentra 2017 the gear jams when putting into reverse, drive, and backing up from drive way. Vehicle has a very slow take off untill you pick up speed at 40 mph. But not enough speed to pass up cars,trucks in enough time and that is stepping on the gas peddle to the bottom.
