Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)I HAVE HAD MY 2001 NISSAN SENTRA A LITTLE OVER 3 YEARS AND WE HAVE HAD MANY RECALLS AND THE LAST ONE ON APRIL 13, 2004 THE DEALER LEFT A PIECE OF FOAM INSULATION AND MY AIR CONDITIONER ( DOES NOT WORK) AND HEATER WORKS NOW SINCE REMOVED THE INSULATION AWAY FROM THE BLOWER MOTOR. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY WERE NASTY WITH ME WHEN I BROUGHT UP THAT THIS SHOULD OF BEEN COVERED UNDER BULLETIN # NTB00091 AND NTB00091B. IF THERE WAS A FAULTY AIRCONDITIONING SYSTEM WHEN THE CAR FIRST CAME OUT THEN SOMEONE SHOULD OF BEEN TOLD. I AM VERY UPSET THAT THIS WAS NOT TOLD TO ME WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. *AK
EXCESSIVE WIND NOISE OCCURS IN CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING. PRIMARY SUSPECT IS WINDSHIELD MOLDING. WHEN CONTACTED, DEALER REFUSED TO PERFORM WARRANTY REPAIRS ON THIS. ACCORDING TO SALESMAN "THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR THE AMOUNT OF MONEY YOU PAID, ALTIMA IS QUITER THAN SENTRA" ACCORDING TO SERVICE "THE (EXCESSIVE) WINDNOISE IS NORMAL, IT'S AS DESIGNED, WITHIN SPECIFICATIONS, AND INHERITED IN BOTH 2000-2001 SENTRAS. WE WILL NOT REPLACE IT UNLESS THERE'S ATSB/RECALL FROM NISSAN". IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AS OTHER 2000-2001 SENTRA OWNERS HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT THEY WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO PURCHASE THEIR SENTRAS FROM DEALERS WILLING TO DO THE REPAIRS (REPLACING THE WINDSHIELD MOLDING, ETC.) THE SAME PROBLEM HAS ALSO BEEN FOUND IN ALTIMAS. *AK
