1995 Nissan Altima GXE from North America - Comments

7th Feb 1999, 00:00

What things have gone wrong with the car?

1. Fixed oil leaking problem (under warranty).

2. Replaced block heater at 40,000km (under warranty).

3. Replaced oxygen sensor at 45,000km (under warranty).

4. Steering wheel vibrated when the car reached above 120km/h. Changed front tires, did wheel balance and alignment several times but couldn't see much improvement.

General comments?

PROS: This car is not bad as a family sedan. Comfortable seating, luxury feel. Tape and CD player are good. Actually, this car is quiet reliable but I would like to get another one for better performance.

CONS: It is too heavy for a Japanese car. Bad gas mileage. Slow and unwilling acceleration until you drive it for a while at 50km/h. Body rolls when turning. Rear speakers are terrible. Gloves box and center storage area are too small. Hard to get in/out the car. Shocked by static several times in winter. Bad re-sale value.
