2002 Nissan Sentra Other or unknown Problems

“I'm not sure if the ECM reprogram that is out for my vehicle will remedy this by the dealer refused to fix it because I refused to pay for a recall! I was traveling low speed and decelerating to pull into my work and the car went into failsafe mode and almost caused me to crash and get hurt it was also on a city street when I was downshifting probably about 5-10 MPH then I tried to turn and there was no power and a truck from behind was flying up on me and barely swerved out of the way to not hit me and it was a super humid hot day when it first happened! …”

“While on a major highway at 4:30pm driving about 60 MPH, the accelerator stuck causing the 2002 Nissan Sentra se-r to accelerate uncontrollably. The floor mat had come loose and jammed the accelerator. I had to shift to and kick the pedal loose. Very nearly caused a major accident. This fault was the subject of an earlier recall, but the solution by Nissan does not solve the problem. The floor mat easily comes off the puny little peg on the floor.”

“The car shut down sometimes when I stop in a red light. Even sometimes inside the freeway. When almost stop. I belive is a malfuntion of the engine control module ( ECM )”

“Dip stick of a 2002 Nissan Sentra gxe has snapped off at the plastic handle and is now lodged in my oil tank. From what I have researched, this is a pretty common occurrence, resulting in high dealership charges and severe engine problems, including engine failure. Great work Nissan!”

“The oil level gauge (dipstick) of 2002 Nissan Sentra is very easy to break. My dipstick's a rubber/plastic handle was broken during oil change, and the blade was stuck in the tube and very difficult to get it out. A dealership asked $100 to just pull the broken blade out. I believe this is a direct result of poor design, and I have also seen numerous similar failures on Nissan Sentra. The manufacturer needs to recall this part immediately.”
