2014 Nissan Sentra transmission “repair”
After it died unexpectedly a couple weeks ago, I took my 2014 Nissan Sentra
(55,000 miles) to my neighborhood mechanic, and he said the transmission
had failed & needed to be replaced. I called Nissan and their mechanic
agreed. After that, I found out that my certified pre-owned warranty from
Nissan was still in effect (7yrs/100,000 miles), so I called Nissan back and the
guy said he’d be happy to replace it as a warranty service.
A week later, I finally hear back from a different guy at Nissan: they decided
not to replace the transmission, but to do a software update on a sensor body
instead. He says it’s running fine and to come pick it up.
I know (only now) about the Nissan CVTs, so I feel like there’s good reason to
be concerned. Any suggestions on what I can do?
