2001 Nissan Sentra GXE review from North America
"OK car, get a Toyota or Honda instead"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light is on. Comes up with Cut Bypass Valve. Replaced this valve twice and light still on. I think it might be the ECU, but not sure.
Belts make a lot of noise even after being replaced.
Engine makes a grinding noise.
Other than these small problems, nothing serious.
Bottom of the doors rusting.
General comments?
I'll probably buy a Honda and stay away from Nissan.
