1 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2019 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 12/19/2020

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.

2 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2019 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 01/30/2020

I purchased my vehicle 4/2019 and taken it back to the dealer at least 4 times for other problems and they tell me there's nothing going on when they check it. I am now experiencing a new problem and I took it back to the dealer concerning the radio coming on and off when the car wasn't in use. When I would get into the car it wouldn't start and I would have to get it boosted to start. The battery keeps running down. I was told by the dealer that there has been other reports and that they are being told not to fix problem until Nissan further investigate the problem. They claimed to dismantled the radio to avoid the battery from running down but its still doing the same thing. Also it was stated I could to continue driving until they call it in for repairs and stated that they couldn't give me a time frame when it will be fixed. I wasn't offered a loaner and when I asked I was told they didn't have one available. I took it in 1/30/20 and picked it up 1/31/20.

3 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2019 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 11/01/2019

The second day after purchasing vehicle the radio would come on and go off even when car nor radio was on. It happens a lot. Went out to garage one night and radio was playing. Don't know how long it was on. Happens while driving on highway and streets also. Came out of work radio was playing in parked car. I'm afraid battery will run down or worse electrical problem causing other safety issues when driving car. Dealer had had 22 days with no answer to repair. Just bought oct. 31st.

4 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2013 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 09/20/2019

My 2013 Nissan Sentra had no known problems, and I had no icons on my dashboard that something needed attention. . . No check engine light, no check transmission light. . None. And when I had taken my car to get an oil change, my car had no serious issues. And just recently as I had my foot on the break because I was parking my car's engine turned off,, but the radio was still on. I attempted several times to turn on until it did, but as soon as I shifted to reverse or drive, the engine would just turn off. And now my car turns on but makes a weird noise like something is dragging, but engine remains on, and every time I shift to drive or reverse my car turns off. Iv'e purchased my car new back in 2013, and it only has 73,000 miles. I don't drive long distances too often or get on the highway too much. I work about 20 minutes away from work with traffic. I have done my oil change at my Nissan dealership and nothing ever came up on their multi inspection. I just don't know what is wrong with my car.

11 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2005 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 11/16/2007

I have a 2005 Nissan Sentra. I've had it for a year when it started squealing under the hood, it also would shake for at least 5 minutes everytime I started it in the morning. Eventually the car wouldn't start and I was told I needed a new engine. The gauges didn't warn me of any problems before hand. I took the car for regular services, always on time for oil changes. The cd player was also replaced once and still doesn't work. The car no longer has warranty and I don't have the money for a new engine at this point in time.

13 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2001 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 03/15/2006

Oem 6-disc in dash cd changer shows err2, and does not play cds. I was told by the dealer on 4-9-07 that it would cost approximately $79 to diagnose the problem. I have done a little research, and discovered that this seemed to be a very wide spread problem with the Nissan in dash cd changer. Also, that Nissan seemed to be ignoring or denying the problem. Ak.

15 Radio/tape Cd Player problem of the 2002 Nissan Sentra

Failure Date: 05/14/2003

I own a 2002 Sentra spec v and this is my second one in 10 months that has failed to perform as it should. The current vehicle has had 1 new engine, 1 exhaust manifold, 2 window regulators, 2 new windows, three new door speakers, two shift knobs, 1 timing belt tensioner, 1 third brake light, and is in the process of getting it's third engine. Car consumes oil at a rapid rate of 2 quarts per 1200 miles. Tried an informal resolution and Nissan rejected. Dealer agrees the car should be bought back. Symptoms that I have, lead to possible engine fire and is being addressed with a recall. I was sent home in a vehicle that was unsafe and they did not want to fix this last time and were denying the car had any problem. I fought a long hard battle just to get it fixed.
