2003 Nissan Sentra 1.8s review from North America
"Great car for the 9000 I paid for it, I would recomend it to anyone who drives a lot"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I bought the car there were a few issues, so I brought it back a week later.
Front hub bearings were making noise, so I thought, dealer said no it was tires, so they replaced all 4 tires for me. 0$
Right front speaker blown. dealer fixed. 0$
Belts squeeking under hood when it was cold, dealer fixed 0$
Front rotors warped, dealer fixed. 0$
I bought the car from orland park nissan and I knew the owner so I got a full warranty on it till 100,000 miles plus certification, I guess I was lucky.
Now there it a little squeek when it shifts from 2nd to 3rd. idk what it could be, ill bring it in when I get a chance.
General comments?
I love this car a lot, it's so much better then my oldsmobile alero I had, that car was nothing, but a problem. great gas mileage, 36 all highway with my 110 mile a day commute to work.
Not a fancy car by any means, but it does the job, not as fast as id like, but it gets up there. At least this car isn't governered to 105 like my alero lol.
Pretty comfortable and easy to get in and out, not good for backseat riders, it has a relativley small backseat with no leg room.
For being 18 years old, I think the cars nice and more reliable then my other cars, similar to my 1990 honda accord.
