Nissan Sentra GXE
| | Model of the car: | Nissan Sentra GXE | | | General comments: | Bought as new in 1997. It has 77K miles right now. Great commut car. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Alternator went two years ago at around
55K. I was lucky that it was still under
warranty.
One thing I didn’t like was that a
refurbished alternator was installed to
replace the broken one. How long can it
last? I don’t know.
Another weird issue is that it sometimes
(once or twice per year) is not easy to be
started after a car wash or rain. Say, I
had a car wash on Saturday and parted it in
carport for two days. On Monday morning, I
had some difficulties to start it. It
usually takes about 5 minutes to be
started. The engine has no power in the
beginning. It shakes and I can tell that 4
cylinders are started one by one. I used a
jumper to jump start it,
no help. The dealer couldn’t find the
issue.
Bridge store tires were replaced around 35K
miles about 3 years. I replaced them with
Michelin and still happy with my decision. | | | Previous car: | 88 Nissan Sentra
