Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND HEARD AN EXPLOSION. PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND SAW A HUGE HOLE IN THE SUNROOF AND THE REMAINING WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. NOTHING CAME UP AND HIT US AND WE WERE NOT DRIVING UNDERNEATH OF ANYTHING. IT WAS COMPLETELY RANDOM AND UN-EXPLAINED. *TR
THE VISOR ON OUR 2011 NISSAN SENTRA 2.0 S BLOCKS THE VIEW OF OUR REAR VIEW MIRROR. WE CANNOT USE OUR MIRROR SAFELY WITH THE VISOR DOWN. WE HAVE NOT TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP TO HAVE CHECKED. WE HAVE NOT HAD ANY CRASHES OR INJURIES IN OUR VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS, BUT IT IS VERY NERVE WRECKING TRYING TO BACK OUT WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO SEE. IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM EVEN TODAY. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT IN ORDER TO USE THE SUN VISOR, SHE WOULD HAVE TO READJUST THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. BY READJUSTING THE REAR VIEW MIRROR SHE COULD NO LONGER SEE OUT OF IT PROPERLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,656.
THE SUN VISOR ON THE NISSAN SENTRA WHEN FLIPPED DOWN CAUSES LOSS OF VISIBILITY WHICH CAN MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE CARS AHEAD AND REQUIRES ADJUSTMENTS WHICH CAN MAKE IT VERY ANNOYING TO USE AND LEAD TO LOSS OF CONCENTRATION REQUIRED WHEN DRIVING. IT IS A BAD DESIGN AND CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS AS IT DID IN MY CASE AND SHOULD BE FIXED! *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN SENTRA SR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE REAR VIEW MIRROR AND OBSTRUCT THE DRIVERS FIELD OF VISION. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE MIRROR HAD TO BE REPOSITIONED WHENEVER THE VISOR WAS PLACED IN THE DOWNWARD POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO CORRECT THE FAILURE ON THE SR TRIM OF THIS MODEL YEAR, EVEN THOUGH THE OTHER TRIMS DID NOT EXPERIENCE THE SAME FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 4,000. UPDATED 9/19/11 *CN UPDATED 2/22/12 *CN
THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR HITS THE REARVIEW MIRROR. THIS IS VERY DISTRACTING FOR THE DRIVER AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. *TR
