2002 Nissan Sentra GXE review from North America
"Carl is the shiznit"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The tires weren't so good when I purchased it. Heat shield on something in the engine compartment came loose and made a rattling sound around 1000 miles after I had purchased it. Took it back to the dealer and they just took it off. no harm no foul.
General comments?
The sentra a.k.a. Carl is a wonderful car. I have not had a single major problem with it since I got her. She handles the roads better than a fat kid on a scooter (ouch). Handles wonderfully at speeds in excess of 80 mph (it's a daily occurence going between home and school). its awsome on gas compared to my old Grand Prix's. Back seat is pretty roomy. handles being filled with a lot people really well. In general its the best car I've had and will continue to own until it craps out completely or cost me too much money to run.
