Nissan Sentra 2002 Power Train Manual TransmissionNissan Sentra 2002 Power Train Manual Transmission Review #10016736 NISSAN SENTRA 2002 car safety problem was reported on Apr 30, 2003.NISSAN SENTRA 2002, manufactured by NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION . the transmission (6spd of the spec v model) is defective. 3rd gear synchros go bad, shifting feel clunky/knotchy to where its hard to get in gear especially when its cold. took it in the first time on 3/26/02 and they decided to replace the transmission. dealer pulled transmission 1. without discussing it with me and 2. without having the part in stock. took 2 weeks to get the new transmission in which if we hadnt fought with them they werent planning on giving us a rental. now im taking it in again for the same problem. grinding as it goes into 3rd. this time they say they are replacing it with a 2003 transmission and it should fix the problem. so apparently nissan is aware of the defect. since its on 2 occasion i will put the later date. the first time it was taken in 3/26/02 and replaced 4/11/02 and now im taking it back in on 4/30/03 to be fixed again.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 20800 miles.

(are they insane - i asked myself - the car won't start when it rains? then they told me that i need to pump the gas pedal every time i start the car - a fuel injected car?) so, they replaced the fuel pump. but twice since the car has not wanted to start. the car has, since the day i leased it, randomly stalled right after starting. why? no one seems to know. then, this weekend while traveling on a highway, at about 70 mph the car suddenly lost all ability to maintain speed or accelerate. luckily, i was able to get to the shoulder, and by that point the engine died. after repeated attempts over 20 minutes, the car started but the "service engine soon" light remained on. when attempting to get back on the highway to travel home from where i was, the car would not accelerate, starting making horrible banging noises and it smelled like something was burning. the car wouldn't accelerate and had no power. luckily, i was able to get into an empty parking lot before having to call for a tow. there was a recall recently on the sentra - relating to the engine and possible fires - and the parts replacement was performed - so i am left wondering what kind of junk i have been stuck with... it seems that it is one problem after another with this car. *jb.Mileage was 35920 miles.

(at this point my car had ~28000 miles) they said if i didn't get the tires replaced asap, i would have a blowout. none of them had ever seen anything like this. i had all 4 tires replaced at sears soon after. (it was est. 10000 miles of tread left on the "faulty" tires) the mechanic said he also noticed the splitting on the "faulty" tires and hadn't seen anything like it either. on may 31, 05, i took the "faulty" tires (which i still have) to nissan. they didn't know what could have caused the splitting, and said to deal w/ firestone. at firestone, the mechanic said it looked like i got a bad batch of tires with the car, but that his comment was "off the record" since he didn't want to bad mouth firestone. when the manager came out, he blatantly beat around the bush, saying that since the tires weren't on the car, they didn't know if i was telling the truth (ie: since the tires were off, he thought i could have purposely damaged the tires to take advantage of him, even though i had 3 other companies as eye witnesses). he then said if i had the tires still on the car, he would've been able to give me a pro-rated reimbursement. i still don't understand why the tires needed to be on the car for the manager to notice the fault in them... in the end, i was offered no compensation for these faulty tires, but the more important problem in my eyes is that of safety. i don't believe these tires are safe, esp. considering my experience w/ them. for tires to "split" as mine did makes everyday driving for me and others around me very dangerous. i can send pictures via email if desired. thanks for your time.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 28000 miles.

Nissan Sentra 2002 Reports
i took my 2005 nissan xterra to a dealership in long beach ca, to have them run a diagnostic test on why my check engine would go off. I drove off having more problems then a had when i took my vehicle into be tested. i paid 1'323.28 for a battery what does it mean when I put my 2004 Nissan Altima in drive and it takes it about 10 or seconds before it will go into drive. The weird thing is I can go into reverse with no problem or lower gear it goes I have a problem with my 2005 Nissan TPMS. After about 10 miles, the reading on the display changes to "**" for 1 of the 4 tires and the low pressure warning light comes on. I've checked pressure on the tires and they are all fine. The dealer t Why my 2008 Nissan maxima flat tire light keep on even we filled air full? i am getting zzon zoon sound from air compressor nissan maxima gxe model1997.what i have to do get its serving or replace the air compressor?please reply. hi would it cause the brakes to lock on if the brake light switch was fitted in the wrong postion on a 4 pin switch nissan tiida?. Crossed jumped my cars battery for 2 sec. Now car will crank but not start 2010 Nissan Frontier Extended Cab and five foot bed vibrates when starting off from a dead stop.....only lasts a second and again only when starting from a dead stop....dealers answer was has an 80,000 mile power train warranty, drive it till it b This is my 2nd quest. I've owned this one over a year. Do the sliding doors not have sensors? My other 05' did. My 1 year old got her fingers caught, thank God it was nothing major, but it could have been. Why would they not have sensors??? This can result in gradual wear over a period of time inside the joint that could lead to the separation of the wiper linkage assembly from the wiper motor linkage at the joint ball. I have a 05 nissan maxima with 35,000 miles. I'm not having a problem at this time. I would like to know if a transgo Kit for the valvebody will help to prevent future problems with the transmission. I have a 01 Niss UD 2600 No Fuel aqt the inj pump but fuel getting to the pump its been very cold and i have changed both filters. i was told there is a crank sensor in the inj. pump where is it?? And How do i check it
