Driver assistance reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers.

I turned on my car at 10,658 miles. Every malfunction alert came on. CVT Malfunction, Blind Spot Warning, Collision Warning, Multiple Malfunction Warnings. As I drove the wheel was hard to turn, blind spot assistance did not work, departure from lane did not work. When I parked and tried to turn on and off car it did not start all lights and everything were not working. Reader read: Computer Transmission not Communicating. I then got it towed to dealership. I saw there was a recall on Nissan Sentra 2025 for the exact same issue but I did not have an open recall.

Crash reported
The 2025 Nissan Sentra lost control in the steering wheel or driveshaft while driving down hill. The vehicle lost power lost steering and crashed. The vehicle stated "malfunction " when the crash occured. There was a leaking fluid coming from the front left underside of the vehicle after the crash when it became undrivable due to loss of power and loss of driveshaft control. I felt unsafe with the way the vehicle was shuddering and jerking every right turn I made in the vehicle days prior to it being in a crash.

Crash reported
When it rains the car hydroplanes and the traction on the tires are no good. Also the door locks don't unlock properly and the door won't open. Also the warning for vehicle collision front and back doesn't work properly and doesn't warn you when a vehicle is going to hit you from behind. I was rear-ended and it didn't alert me at all and the driver of the other vehicle took off.and once in a while the front collision works and most of the time it doesn't work
