“Our 2019 Sentra won't start and we ended up buying a battery and it still won't start. From the research I've done looks like a breaking sensor. Due to the. Real lights not lighting up at all. Seems to be a reoccurring thing for sentras. This is a safety issue and potential lawsuit due to the car turning off on the road.”

“Everytime I drive about 4 miles the front radar sensor gets disabled and displays a warning, this disabled the cruise and turns of automatic emergency braking, this is dangerous for me to drive with, I have taken the car to the dealership 3 times and its still happening, the dealership claims they fixed it but did not”

“The radio will randomly come on for a second when the car is off. I have went out to get something out of the trunk & this has happened & I have also went out to leave & when I walk outside the radio in the car is playing when the car has not been driven since the prior day. I am concerned about this issue draining the car battery. This is random & has happened more than a dozen times.”

“2019 Nissan Sentra purchased in july 2019 - my stereo will reboot on its own completely shutting down and rebooting with the Nissan/nissanconnect logos. Typically does this on any mode of the stereo and will happen after about 4 songs on bluetooth or if you skip more than two songs at a time. Does not really impact driving as I've yet to see it impact use of the backup camera.”

NHTSA complaint #11257899, filed 2019-09, 5,750 miles

“The display screen for heat/air conditioning and airflow controls will randomly shut off. The temperature and airflow controls will still work even when the screen is off. I will have the heat set to 70 but it feels like I pressed the air conditioning button ( ihave not and checked by pressing the air conditioning button). While other times, I will have the air temperature set to 62 and it feels like I've turned it up to 85 degrees.”
