Nissan Launches Killer Sentra Lease Offer for June
A standout lease in a pricey market Amid a summer full of rising lease prices—Nissan included—one name in the lineup still stands out: the 2025 Sentra SV. While the brand has hiked signing costs on popular models like the Kicks, Rogue, and Altima, and demands over $6,000 up front for the Murano or Pathfinder, the compact Sentra continues to offer one of the most approachable new-car leases available. 2025 Ford Maverick: 4 reasons to love it, 2 reasons to think twice Watch More Why the Sentra still makes sense The Sentra has always played the value card well, and in 2025, it doubles down on it. The SV trim, recommended for its added tech and comfort, adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, and access to the NissanConnect infotainment system with a Wi-Fi hotspot. 2025 Nissan Sentra — Source: Nissan And now, it's more affordable than ever. For $209 per month for 39 months with $3,259 due at signing, the Sentra SV offers one of the lowest monthly payments for any gas-powered car or crossover on the market. With a total lease mileage of 32,500 miles, it's a compelling package for budget-conscious shoppers who need practical, fuel-efficient daily transportation. Want more features? The SR isn't a bad deal either If you want a little more style and luxury, Nissan's got an answer there, too. The Sentra SR, with its sharp-looking two-tone paint, 18-inch wheels, and available quilted leather interior, is available for $319/month. While that is a fairly large jump, it's still notably cheaper than most compact crossovers or hybrid sedans, and the upgrades do bring a touch of premium feel to an otherwise budget-friendly ride.

These extras don't just look good on paper—they elevate the Sentra from a basic commuter to something that actually feels a little upscale inside. It's still the same practical car underneath, but with a more refined edge that's rare in this price range. Final thoughts The 2025 Sentra may not be the most thrilling car to drive, given that its 149-hp engine and CVT are more focused on economy than excitement, but it's quiet, comfortable, and equipped with class-leading safety tech. With EPA ratings of up to 34 mpg combined, supportive front seats, and a spacious 14-cubic-foot trunk, it covers all the basics and then some. Nissan Sentra — Source: Nissan If you're shopping for a new daily driver under $250 a month, this summer lease may be hard to beat. Even in a segment filled with great options, the Sentra SV makes a strong case for best overall value. *Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

Hundreds of Thousands of Acura and Honda Vehicles Have a Brake Problem
Some Of Honda's Most Popular Cars Are Faulty The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced a new recall for some 259,033 vehicles that may have a dangerous flaw. According to the NHTSA recall documents, a pivot pin on the brake pedal of certain vehicles under both the Honda and Acura brands may not have been secured properly, which may cause the pedal to move out of position. As you can imagine, the worst-case scenario might see a driver press the brake only to find that the pedal may simultaneously engage the accelerator pedal (none of the affected cars come with a clutch pedal) or be otherwise prevented from being fully depressed. The recall affects the Honda Pilot and Acura MDX three-row mid-size SUVs, along with the TLX sedan. Numerous Model Years Face The Recall The recall impacts TLX model years 2021-2025, while owners of either SUV only need to worry if theirs is a 2023-2025 model. As a physical flaw, this won't be solved with a software update, and dealers will have to inspect and replace the brake pedal assembly as necessary. As a manufacturer flaw, this won't cost owners anything but time. Speaking of which, drivers will need to be cautious for a little while, as notification letters are only expected to be mailed on July 28. In the meantime, it can't hurt to physically inspect the pedals before each drive to ensure that neither foot pedal is interfering with the other. Recalls Are Only One Concern For Honda Source: James Riswick/Autoblog Every year, millions of cars are recalled over defects, but Honda has managed to maintain a reputation for reliability. Still, there are challenges it must face that are beyond its control. Honda says tariffs will erase some $4 billion from its profit margins, and it's going to spend a not-inconsiderable amount moving production of the popular Civic to avoid those tariffs. Hopefully, this major change and other cost-cutting measures do not negatively impact quality. Fortunately, the TLX won't be badly impacted as it's built in Marysville, Ohio. The MDX and Pilot benefit from being made in Lincoln, Alabama, too. About the Author Sebastian Cenizo View Profile
