Hi I'm Peter your code P0720 Output Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is a generic OBD-II powertrain code. It is considered generic because it applies to all makes and models of vehicles (1996-newer), although specific repair steps may vary depending on the model.
On electronically controlled transmissions, the Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS) is located on the end of the transmission before the drive axles or driveshaft to read the speed of the output shaft which may be used to determine shift scheduling, torque converter engagement schedule and Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) inside the transmission. The Powertrain control module / Engine control module (PCM/ECM) has determined there is a malfunction with the OSS sensor. The PCM/ECM may substitute values based on other sensors to determine shift timing, torque converter operation and EPC pressure if the OSS sensor information is unavailable. The OSS sensor is also commonly used for the speedometer. Note: On some vehicles, the OSS sensor is inline with the Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) sensor, if there is a failure with the TFT sensor or associated wiring, the OSS sensor may malfunction as well. If there is another code associated with the TFT sensor as well as the OSS sensor, suspect a possible problem with either sensor, or the wiring in between

Sonic, I looked at the Nissan scheduled maintenance for your Sentra.. You should be fine on spark plugs until 100K miles. If you do decide to replace them earlier, be sure to replace with the OEM recommended plug... hope this helps.. Best of Luck!!

There is noproblem - that's a "maintenance-minder" light based on miles driven. It's reminding you that some scheduled maintenance based on your mileage is recommended (oil change, brake inspection, tire rotation, etc). If there was a problem the check-engine light would come on.

Do nothing but drive it and sell it after 2 yrs and let someone else have the problems

auto trans check for low fluid level in trans, manual trans check clutch adjustment.

The timing chain doesn't really have a maintenance period. They don't have a habit of breaking or stretching. Timing belts on some vehicles do have a recomended replacement period. Locate your local NTB, Firestone, or Sears for the maintenance schedule.

Please review this article concerning your Sentra: http://www.nissanextendedwarranty.com/maintenance/nissan-maintenance-schedules.html

change the fluid and clean filter every 15000miles, oil change is every 3000 miles and tuneups are usually every 100000 miles. air filter is done every 30000 miles.
feul filter every 30000 miles as well.

I assume its a standard transmission.
Should be a threaded plug on the top of trans , or 1/2 way up on the side.
If auto trans , add fluid through dipstick tube.
