2002 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
"This is a fun car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 87,000 miles the Check Engine Light came on and again at 91,000 miles.
Any suggestions on what to do about Check Engine Light, since the mechanic charged $450.000 to change a "faulty" O2 sensor, which seems to be very common on this car.
General comments?
Love the car, despite its flaws.
Very quick. Drove from KS to NJ and back and never skipped a beat.
Comfortable for me at 6'4".
