The 2011 Nissan Sentra has 2 recalls, both involving a battery terminal connection that can cause the engine to stall while driving and may prevent the vehicle from restarting, raising the risk of a crash. In both cases, the positive battery cable terminal can lose contact due to fitting irregularities at the connection point, cutting power to the engine without warning. The two recalls cover different production date ranges but share the same consequence: an unexpected stall at speed or low speed with a difficult or impossible restart.
