Affordable in it class (1.6L Japanese car)
Handover a problematic new car to customer.
I am the owner of the latest version (new backlight)Nissan Sentra 1.6A N16. I received my car on 17th April 2004 from EDARAN TAN CHONG SDN BHD SECTION 16 BRANCH.
The salesman passed the car to me and said "This car has a problem, the front driveshaft bearing is making noise when you turn." Can you imagine what is my facial expression at that time? I am totally disappointed with NISSAN and not only TAN CHONG. How can they handover the new car with problem to their customer? I am actually sold off my 1996 Honda Civic and bought this Nissan Sentra, because of its affordable pricing and high overtrade. But I think I am wrong, NISSAN can not compare to HONDA at all.
I make no noise and sent my car to TAN CHONG workshop to fix the drive shaft bearing. The salesman returns the car and told me they had change the left side bearing but still get the noise. He asked me to send in again early morning the next day(7:30am) so that they can have enough time to repair and test if wrong then can repair again. What will you do after hearing that? I can't imagine they brave to say that, I can do anything just to follow his instruction.
After 2 times I sent my New Sentra to workshop, they managed to solve my bearing noise. But I still have the noise one a while when I make the turning. Few days back (04th May 2004) I done my first 1000 services, and complained that I still have the noise. The mechanics told me " Today we had not enough specialist to check your car, please mentioned it again on your 5000 services"
For those people who plan to buy SENTRA, my advise to you is " PLEASE BUY IF YOU THINK YOU ARE LUCKY ENOUGH"
