1994 Nissan Sentra XE review from North America
"Buy it for your college son or daughter"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My Sentra blew the head gasket at 143000 miles.
I had to replace the brakes (pads and rotors) front and back at 146000.
Replaced the radiator, water pump, steering pump and alternator at 143000.
My mechanic just informed me that the CV (What does cv stand for?) needs to be replaced at 146000 miles.
General comments?
Not enough room in the car.
Reliable and not expensive to maintain despite me spending $2000.00 this year alone. In the last 4 years I have hardly spent a dime to repair it.
Good for college students.
