Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My Nissan Sentra experienced unintended forward movement while Reverse was selected. After restarting the vehicle and shifting back into Park and then Reverse, the vehicle moved forward instead of backward, and the brake behavior became abnormal. This caused a minor collision. The condition has been reproducible, and I have video evidence documenting the issue. The vehicle is currently being held, and I was informed that repairs should not begin until Nissan inspects the vehicle and retrieves diagnostic/event data. …”
NHTSA complaint #11728222, filed 2026-03“Rental car company is renting out cars with open safety recalls. I paid 1212$ cash ( I did not plan on this expense. I did not have that much money on one card so they told me to remove it from multiple cards at an ATM and give them cash ) for a seven day rental only to find out if open safety recalls on it. I took it back the next day. They said it did not have a recall. They did not offer me an exchange or refund. They took the car before I talked to them about my complaint. They did not remove the charges for the seven days of insurance or tolls and charge me 50 extra dollars for gas. …”
NHTSA complaint #11722022, filed 2026-03“I own a 2025 Nissan Sentra SR. Beginning around September 8, 2026, I began noticing multiple dark/brown oily fluid spots on my garage floor after parking the vehicle. The spots have appeared repeatedly and in multiple locations underneath the vehicle, indicating what appears to be an intermittent fluid leak rather than a single pre-existing stain. I photographed the fluid spots and documented the vehicle's mileage at approximately 35,142 miles. I scheduled the vehicle for service with the Nissan dealership on September 10, 2026, while the vehicle was still under the 36,000-mile basic warranty. …”
