problem #1

Sentra 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
I brought my 05 Nissan Sentra in March 2005. I have taken my car in for regular visits, and every time for a year everything seemed fine. Then in April of 2006 my car wouldn't start. I took the vehicle to the mossy Nissan on mile of cars in national city (where I purchased the vehicle) two and each time they said they fixed it. The third time I took it back because it wouldn't start they said that I needed a new engine! and wanted me to pay for it. I was pregnant on bed rest and having to argue with the dealership and Nissan Corp. That regular maintenance never revealed any problems and that if there were problems they should have caught them. I informed that they did not have to honor the 60 month warranty that I had I would just sue them. After having my husband parents argue with them because the stress during my pregnancy was just too much. They agreed to pay for the new engine. So far so good for almost another year and now the car's service engine soon keeps coming on the car is at the dealer today for the 3rd time. The car stalls out. The service man just left a message on my phone and is now saying the reason for the problem is the sensor is off?! whatever.. I am going to go pick it up.. if the problem happens again I am going to have my boss who's spouse is a lemon law attorney get involved.
