In 2017 Nissan Sentra, issues with starting are typically due to a flat battery or a malfunctioning alternator. If the lights on the dashboard appear dim, the battery is likely the culprit. On the other hand, if the engine starts but quickly shuts off, the alternator may not be properly charging the battery. If jump-starting the car works temporarily, only to fail when relying on the vehicle's power, a dead battery is probably the cause. Many automotive retailers such as Advance Auto Parts provide complimentary testing for both the battery and alternator. Additionally, these stores offer free installation of purchased batteries.
In 2017, the Nissan Sentra can have issues starting due to a battery that is completely drained or an engine that refuses to start.
