Nissan Sentra
| | Model of the car: | Nissan Sentra | | | General comments: | My Sentra thought that it was something else, like a SUV, or a tank or something... because I tore it up. I bought it just because it was so cheap and I didn't feel like putting a ton of miles on my Eclipse. Seriously, I drove that thing into a tree head on at 35 mph, friend cracked his head on the dash, had it towed to a garage, they replaced the radiator, pulled the front back out and I was good to go. You couldn't run into a tree 150 times in a row and be able to drive a car as soon as I drove that sentra. Yeah... the tires were a little pigeon toed from that point on but that didn't stop her. Living up in Northern WA state I would take her up in the mountains during the winter to go boarding. On my way up I would pass 4x4's sliding off the side of the road. Heck, there were a couple of times that I literally stopped in the middle of the road, picked up some guys that came off the mountain and wanted a ride back up, and started right back up. My roommate and I tried our best to see how much she could give us. Front wheel drive on such a light car ROCKS. By the time I sold it for $100 you couldn't unlock the drivers side door from the outside, you could unlock the passenger side door with anything that would fit into the key hole, the steering wheel compartment would start smoking when the blinker was on for more than 30 seconds, the heater DID NOT work, interior lights didn't work, the cable that was attached to my transmission (showing rpm) acted like a drill and would bring transmission fluid in and leak onto the floor board, the odometer didn't work, and the muffler would stay on when it felt like it. But she was still running like a champ with about 170,000. boy that car was the energizer bunny. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Ummmm.... didn't have armor like a tank. | | | Previous car: | I never drove anything as reliable as that car. Not one time did I get stranded on the side of the road because of something wrong with the car. :-) I had a problem here and there... but that isn't |
