Friday march 11, 2016 while driving to work on the george bush turnpike where the speed limit is 70 MPH my car loss all power and would not restart, luckily it was 5:30am when the traffic was light and I felt the power starting to dwindle and was able to reach the shoulder without injury. I'm leasing the car from drivetime of irving and was not informed of this defect. I found out through my research trying to figure out what was wrong with the that was a november 2007 recall. I am amazed that these cars are still on the road and being sold with no warning. Thank god that I was one of the lucky ones and not accident occurred.

I own a 2005 nissan sentra 1.8s. We were replacing a few problem areas under the hood, and after replacement noticed the car would not drive more than 30mph. Even getting it up to 30mph is a struggle. We took it to a couple repair shops, including a local nissan dealership. No one is able to identify the issues we have replaced the throttle body (which is one meant for a 2006 year not 2005), and the gas pedal position sensor, 3 times. The car has been sitting for the last 5 1/2 months. Nissan does not know what the issue is. They charged me for the gas pedal position sensor, even though we just had it replaced and that part was in fact a good part! They charged us for their unfounded guesses.

Front passenger side window will not go up or down, it is raining, snowing. This is second window to fail in this car. It is unsafe to have electric windows that are so shoddily made. I don't use that window much. I am sure they all will fail at this rate. All 4 of them.

I bought me a 2005 nissan sentra 1.8 on january of 2010. I was told by the dealer that they get great gas mileage and are a very reliable car to have. I have learned fast this was not so. My car is now not wanting to start, it is shifting very hard and sometimes wont shift and I can smell something burning especially when driving up a hill, my keypad will not work to lock or unlock my car but will open the trunk, the lock-unlock button inside the car will not work, and none of my windows will roll down. This is bs. I have told and will proceed to tell everyone I know to not buy a nissan. This has made me not want to trust any of your vehicles again and I will probably go to a diff. Dealer and get something well worth my money. I am not paying 8,000 dollars on a car that just keeps tearing up, especially when parts are way to expensive!

The horn stopped working on this past saturday, january 30, 2009 - again. This must be the sixth time I had the horn not working. I have brought it in to the dealer endless times because the horns are completely defective. I have owned cars my entire life and never had this trouble with a car in my entire life.
