2005 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light came on a couple of weeks ago, finally took it to the dealer today and was told my catalytic converter needs to be replaced along with a CO2 sensor. The converter will be covered under the 80,000 mile warranty. Not sure if the extended warranty will cover the CO2 sensor or not. $1200 for converter, $400 CO2 sensor.
I have had the issue where I'm at a stop light and the engine will rev up like I'm pushing the gas as well. That was happening for awhile before the check engine light came on.
General comments?
Until this point the car ran great. I bought the Maxima because it was supposed to be a good car.
