2001 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
"This car is junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I am absolutely shocked at the low level of quality of this car. Even more shocked at the level of service at the dealerships. Let see.. what we wrong (so far)
1. ABS Sensor needed to be replaced
2. 2 O2 sensors needed to be replaced
3. Faulty wiring in the front headlight
4. Recently took my car for an oil change (at the dealership), now its leaking oil.
5. Clutch is gone
6. Steering audio controls don't work
7. Needed a new starter
8. Leather is VERY poor quality, seats already tearing even with weekly applications of leather conditioner.
9. My slave and master cylinders might need to be replaced.
There are other problems I've had with this car as well as with the dealership. Nissan Canada (and its dealerships) will not stand behind their product. I WOULD NEVER BUY A NISSAN IN MY LIFE AGAIN!
