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.

Sometime in April 2019 all of a sudden all the buttons switches in the steering wheel including cruise control; radio volume radio stations; the horn all stopped working without notice, also the air bag light began flashing. I asked the mechanic about that and he said lot if Nissans have that problem. He said I might need to get the combination switch?.

Airbag light flashing, then horn didn't work; now the cruise control is not working. I see several similar problems noted in the database. Several close calls without the horn.

Front radar system turns off and then resets for no apparent reason. Dash message is 'front radar unavailable due to obstruction'. It is tied into the automatic emergency braking system and intelligent cruise control. Happens when vehicle is in motion on varied roadways. There is no obstruction.

Had my car on the highway oct. 13,2018 for a 2hr trip. . . 1hr into trip and my car knocked off the cruise control and began jerking with rpms jumping up and down. On return trip it did the same thing, but no warning lights ever appeared on dash. When checked, no red flags and after a day or 2 around town rpms did not jump. Nov. 22,2018(just a little over 1 month) I put my car on the highway for the same trip and within an hour the car knocked off the cruise control, began jerking and rpms were jumping up and down. On the return trip back, 1hr and a half into trip, my car lost all aceleration power. . Pedal to the floor and it continued to drop speed from 70mph to 45 before I turned on hazards and stopped on the shoulder. Then finally the check engine light pops on! but my daughter and I were now stranded on the side of the busy highway. My car hit 75k miles during this 2nd trip, so first time was under 75k. After spending over an hour helpless, the car jumped back into gear and allowed me to drive it the remaining 20 miles, but once exiting the highway I could not acelerate to merge into street traffic and was almost rear-ended. There has been no mention of any cvt issues when I take it in for routine maintenance. Now it's in need of repair badly! no other choice but to take it in to the Nissan dealer ASAP. I've been loyal to Nissan for many years having had a 1995 and 2002 Sentra for years. . . I haven't even had this 2014 for 2 yet, and if being stuck on the side of the highway with a young child or almost being rear-ended due to loss of power to engine doesn't scream �we need a safety recall� what will??.

I purchase 2019 Nissan Sentra on 11/6/2019 with 15 miles at Nissan of muskogee. Since purchase the automatic emergency braking (aeb) system deactivates and shows a warning on the dashboard �front radar unavailable due to obstruction. � a crash icon also on dashboard at all times. No cruise control. The car is out of balance. The sensor comes on at all time wether or not there are other vehicle near the car. The dealership and service department alleges that I am the only one with this problem and the parts not available. I brought it in to service. The dealership service barely look at the car nor check codes. The balance is worse. This is cause by a faulty defective radar sensor in the front grill. Service is now waiting for parts that Nissan can't get anywhere.

Beginning a week ago, the vehicle has spontaneously slowed without warning, at various speeds, and disengages the cruise control. This has happened on the interstate while cruising along at 65 mph, when pulling out of a parking lot at 5 mph, and everywhere in between. The accelerator becomes unresponsive until you take your foot completely off and try to depress again (sometimes it takes 2 or 3 times). This has happened once while driving, then it is fine for the rest of the trip (hours), as well as continuously throughout a trip. The Nissan dealership said they couldn't fix it because there were no error codes and they could not reproduce the problem by test driving. After the first trip to the dealership, I noticed a correlation between when it is raining and the frequency of the problem. When the wipers have been turned on while the cruise control is on, the car disengages the cruise control and slows, with an unresponsive accelerator. Also, the "slippery road" icon appears on the dash board when the road is dry and spontaneously disengages the cruise control. This is a very dangerous issue, especially when attempting to pull out into traffic, merge onto the interstate, navigate hills, or just driving with other vehicles behind you. I will call the dealership again tomorrow morning now that there seems to be a connection with the vdc (vehicle dynamic control) system and see if they can pinpoint the issue now. Should I just leave my new car parked in the garage and not be able to drive it ever again? maybe I can use it for a planter.

My first indecent occurred while driving down a state highway with my cruise control on, my cruise control was cut off. As I was trying to accelerate back to my driving speed, the gas pedal felt loose and my car was having trouble revving up to accelerate and would not let me accelerate back up to posted highway speeds. The car then "jumped" forward and went back to normal and allowed me accelerate. However, I was not able to engage my cruise control back to normal and would cut it off every time I set it. I took my car to the dealership the next day for an initial recall notice to be fixed and explained also what happened. When I described my issue the service man had said it sounded as if my transmission was slipping, that they would look at it. After recall was cared for and two test drives later, they found nothing wrong with the vehicle. Told me if problem comes back to bring in immediately. On 07/06/2016 on my drive home at night, I came to a light and yielded,upon trying to accelerate to turn my car failed to accelerate and was having issues once again revving up! I drifted in to a nearby parking lot, put my car in park, turned it off for a few minutes then turned it back on. It acted fine until I was further down on a state highway and it was giving issues accelerating again. I contacted the dealership the next day (07/07) and was told to bring it in. They called me after sometime, and made me aware of what was wrong with my vehicle(condensation in the tail lights!) and how it was affecting my vehicle. I was also told that it was a manufacturer issue and that the manufacturer and Nissan are aware of the issue but have yet to issue a recall!! this is a serious issue that can lead to a fatal accident!!.

My 06 Nissan Sentra, that I purchased to replace the taurus that the frame failed has a prob. With the cruise control-- when in cruise, going down the road, when it needs to keep up to speed, it shifts down two gears, instead of one, and the speed increases faster than it should, and then it shifts up one gear, then back to drive-- there times when if the driver is not used to it-it gains on the traffic in front, faster than any other car I have driven, and if the driver is not very attentive it could cause an accident or at least scare the driver, and cause them to over react, in my opinion. This is not right and should be looked into before someone gets hurt. . We do not therefore use the cruise-- this has been happening ever since the car was new-- and when I called Nissan and the dealer, they said it prob. Was normal, not a good enough answer, in my opinion-- it is almost as bad as the Toyota prob. And I think it is all in the electrical set up, which I think is going to be the downfall of the modern cars. It was not necessary to complicate something that was working right for years, and not they want to make the brakes electric. To much electric junk to go bad and cause problems, and all so the veh,'s have to be taken into the dealer or shop. To have expensive repairs, and cause prob's with inspections all the time, also expensive, and not warrented thanks.

1997 Nissan Sentra has had (4) four run-away cruise control incidents. Cruise refuses to disengage while accelerating speed to 90-100+mph. Once the governnor shut the car down, each other time the teenage driver has managed to stop the car by either, shifting into neutral, shutting the car off or using the emergency brake and regular brake at the same time. Each time the incident has required a different method to stop the car. Fortunately there haven't been any injuries or accidents. Howver, Nissan said they were unable to fix the problem yet refuse to accept any responsibility for the life threatening incidents. The head mechanic at Nissan in lebanon told my 18 year old to continue driving the car and if it did it again to bring it back in !!!.
