Federal crash test ratings for the 2012 Nissan Sentra.
The 2011 to 2012 Nissan Sentra received a four-star overall rating from NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program for US-market vehicles. The sedan earned three stars in frontal crash protection and three stars in side crash protection. Rollover resistance was rated at four stars, while side pole crash protection received the highest rating of five stars. NHTSA applies these ratings across model years until a significant redesign occurs, so this assessment covers the entire 2011 to 2012 range.
