1994 Nissan Altima GXE review from North America
"A great investment in more ways than one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The CV joints on the right side of the car went bad.
I have lost 2 hubcaps and they also chip pretty bad.
I have had my distributor replaced twice (after getting a defective one first) along with a rotary button and fuel filter. (I think we have this problem fixed now.)
My cruise control went out.
My speakers busted, the radio volume knob fell off and the tape player spitted out tapes. I just went on and replaced all of the above.
General comments?
I absolutely love this car! This is my very first car and I want to keep it forever. It is very fun to drive. It hugs curves so well and is so spunky. From a complete stop, it hops up and goes, beating most cars at the red light. My only complaint is the road/wind noise at highway speeds.
