I got no incident, just that my car doesn’t start the engine at all. We already try all the basics like put a new battery and still can start the engine.And I can’t used anymore, I really need it to go to work. Because that’s my primary vehicle use. I want to know when is gonna be available those parts to repair the recall. It’s been almost 2 weeks already
I was accelerating then lost power and car failed to go into gear so no drive or no reverse
I have a cvt transmission and sometimes it’s hard for me to even start to move my vehicle because of this sputtering. I’ve seen so many complaints on this cvt and it’s really starting to hinder me from getting back and forth.

After 37,122 miles the transmission on my 2018 nissan sentra went bad on me. I took it to the dealership and they informed me that the entire transmission needed to be replaced. The dealership also said the fuel pump and cluster needed to be replaced. I read that there have been other complaints made about the transmission system for these cars, and there should definitely be a recall.
Starter appears to be out. Electronics are turning on, but engine will not turn over. I currently have 50078 miles on my 2018 nissan sentra.
Attempted to start vehicle in a parking lot and engine would not turn over. Electrically everything turned on but engine would not start. Had to attempt to start the car a few times before the engine would actually turn over. Purchased my car a few days ago from hertz car sales and this started happening more and more frequently every time I attempt to start the car. I read all the posts related to this type of 2018, and appears this is a common problem, looks like it should be recalled.
