Owner-reported complaints naming the other system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Other / unspecified reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

MY TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT IS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. MY TIRES ARE SIX MONTH, AND THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO TURN ON EVEN AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE SHOP. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES TO AMERICAS TIRES, BIT O' TIRE WHERE I PURSHASED THE TIRES AND THEY CHECKED ALL TIRES AND TIRE SENSORS, VALVES AND SAY THE AIR PREASURE IS GOOD. THE LIGHT TURNS OFF BUT A DAY OR TWO AFTER THE AIR PREASURE LIGHT BLINKS AND STAYS ON AGAIN. MY CAR IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION UPON REQUEST. PLEASE ADVICE. THANK YOU

MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. I WAS PARKED WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THE LIGHT ON. AFTER NOTICING, I THEN PROCEEDED TO MAKE SURE ALL FOUR TIRES HAD CORRECT AMOUNT OF AIR AND TO AND TO TURN OFF CAR AND BACK ON TO RESET. AFTER DOING SO THE LIGHT HAS CONTINUED TO REMAIN ON. ALSO MY PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS BEEN FLASHING ON AND OFF WHILE CARE IS IN START MODE. I AM UNSURE THE CAUSE OF IT. MY VEHICLE ALSO CUT OFF WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT A FEW WEEK AGO. UNSURE IF THE PROBLEMS WERE RELATED.

Crash reported
MY 2007 NISSAN SENTRA WAS PURCHASED NEW IN DECEMBER 2006. AFTER HAVING TO BRING IN MY CAR ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS FOR MINOR GLITCHES (A REAR-VIEW MIRROR FALLING OFF, ONE OF THE SUN-VISORS FELL OFF), I FINALLY HAD A BIG PROBLEM. IN FEBRUARY 2008, WHILE DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT, FLAT ROAD, WHILE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION I PREPARED TO STOP MY VEHICLE FOR A LIGHT. I WAS ABOUT 4 CAR LENGTHS BEHIND THE CAR AHEAD OF ME, AND WAS ONLY TRAVELING ABOUT 35 MPH. WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL SOFTLY, NOTHING HAPPENED. THEN I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN ALL THE WAY, AND STILL NOTHING HAPPENED. I HAD A WIDE SHOULDER TO MY RIGHT, SO I TRIED TURNING THE WHEEL AND IT HAD LOCKED UP. AT THIS POINT, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE CAR AHEAD OF ME. MY CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP AND HAD THE STEERING COLUMN REPLACED, AS WELL AS THE HOOD OF THE CAR AND VARIOUS OTHER PARTS NEEDING TO BE FIXED. THE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA FROM THE ACCIDENT WAS DIFFICULT AND THOUGH THERE WERE NO ESTABLISHED INJURIES, I DID EXPERIENCE SLIGHT NECK AND BACK PAIN AFTERWARD. I WAS FOUND TO BE AT FAULT FOR THE ACCIDENT, DESPITE THE BRAKE AND STEERING WHEEL MALFUNCTION, AND SUBSEQUENTLY HAD A LARGE INCREASE IN MY CAR INSURANCE PREMIUM. A NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE WAS FLOWN OUT AT MY REQUEST TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON THE SENTRA BUT SINCE THE STEERING COLUMN WAS REPLACED AS WELL AS OTHER REPLACED/FIXED PARTS, NO INFORMATION WAS FOUND. I AM 100% POSITIVE THAT THE ACCIDENT WAS CAUSED DUE TO A MECHANICAL FAILURE AND WOULD WARN AGAINST PURCHASING A NISSAN SENTRA. IT WAS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE AND I'M STUCK WITH THE CAR SINCE NISSAN WOULD OFFER NO ASSISTANCE FOR THE TROUBLE. *TR

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
