    I purchased a New car, 2002 Sentra, had car for less than a year and car stalled. Contacted my local dealer, begged them to believe that somthing was wrong with car, finally called NMAC and told them about my problem with car. They responded with tow truck and finally admitted to having a recall on crank sensor. While getting car serviced at least 10 cars came in on flatbeds with the same problem. None of the customers had been notified about the problem -- all had the misfortune of the car stalling out while driving almost causing an accident.

    Also while getting this crank sensor fixed my car was modified by the dealer. They also had a recall on a part called an engine modulor case (EMC) because insulator foam was breaking apart, this EMC holds the engine computer and throttle cables, cruise control on some cars.The dealer did not replace the part, they simply pulled out the foam and left the engine computer unprotected. Now it has been 2 yrs.to the month and the Engine mod.case (EMC) is now rattiling and bumping around under the hood. I'm worried because the gas throttle is located here and this is the engine computer.

    I have taken my car to the dealer and called NMAC. They say they are not going to fix it because they consider it fixed since the recall.

    I have a 2001 Nissan Sentra GXE. I purchased it brand new with 12 miles on it from the dealership here. Here is my list of problems.

    1) Both my front tires blew out after hitting minor bumps in the road on two seperate occasions. I ended up replacing the back two tires also, just in case. FYI, I purchased the performance upgrade package which included these horrible tires.

    2) At around 15,000 miles, my car began to jerk and lose power when pushing on the accelerator..at 25,000 miles my check engine light came on and my car died every time I pushed the clutch in, even when driving at highway speeds. Took it in to the dealership and they did FIVE recall repairs on my car that I was never notified about. While leaving the dealership my car stalled again. Took it to another mechanic and they can't figure out the problem.

    3) My front brakes have been replaced twice and now my car only has 50,000 miles on it. By the way, my front rotors are warped.

    4) My windshield wipers won't make full contact with the windshield, thus making visibility horrible on rainy days even with the wipers on. I have replaced the wipers about 20 times since I've had the car and replaced the actual wiper arms and assembly twice. The problem keeps coming back.

    5) I wash and wax my car at least once every two weeks, I don't park in the sun or under trees...yet my paint is coming off, especially my front and rear bumpers.

    Consequently, I have a car that brakes horribly, stalls every time I push the clutch in or come to a stop, has zero visibility in the rain, and whose paint is falling off in big chunks. I still have about 1,000 left to pay on this car before I officially own a LEMON! I have babied this car since day one, and have invested over 5,000 in repairs and having diagnostic tests done and nothing is fixed yet!
