1997 NISSAN SENTRA Complaints

THE WIRING UNDER THE WINDOW CONTROLS IN THE DRIVER DOOR STARTED TO SMOLDER AND BURST INTO FLAMES WITHIN SECONDS. PART OF THE PLASTIC DOOR PANEL MELTED. IT TOOK TWO WATERING CANS OF WATER TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY, BUT I SEE ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT A SIMILAR COMPLAINT WAS FILED TODAY. IT MIGHT BE WORTHWHILE TO CHECK INTO THIS. *NLM

STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WHEN SHE MOVED INTO ANOTHER LANE, CAUSING THE CAR TO SPIN OUT OF CONTROL, CRASHING INTO A FENCE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. SHE AND HER PASSENGERS COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT. LOCK ON THE STEERING WHEEL IS SUSPECT, IN MY OPINION.*AK

SPEEDOMETER WILL WORK ONLY INTERMITTENTLY. TURNS OUT THAT SOMETHING IN THE HEAD IS BROKEN AND THE WHOLE HEAD WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. WHEN I DID RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF I COULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM MYSELF I SAW NUMEROUS POSTS ON THE BOARD WITH OWNERS WHO HAD THE SAME GENERAL PROBLEM WITH 1995-1997 NISSAN SENTRAS, SMALL PICKUPS AND ALTIMAS.*AK
