  Love it BUT rims stink - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By armywife41709 - December 5 - 5:13 am

  Now here is the think! I have had this car since it had 13 miles on it! Now 3 yrs old and 47,500 miles later. I have bent 4 rims on this things! I know I know its not a manufacture issue but this stinks! It cost $200 per rim to replace through a private person and $600 through a dealership! Other than that I love the car minus the front cup holders. Just like everyone else. You put your cup in and it hits the cd player. Now that Im married and have a child the car is getting too small. I cant get more than 3 people in comfortable. Im trying to sell my car and get something else but cant because I still owe way too much!

  Good car for first time driver! - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By lizemrich - November 8 - 4:28 pm

  I got this car for my 16th birthday, Ive never had any problems in the year since then. It is a poorly made car, low end of Nissan for sure, but for a first car it was great. Very easy to drive and gets great gas mileage. The fuel pump is an issue for me just like everyone else who mentioned it, my car has never not started, but it does take two tries sometimes. Other than that I love it! Great first car, I wouldnt buy it if it wasnt for a teen or college student though.

  Average - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By travisaustin08 - October 30 - 8:06 pm

  Bought at 54,000 miles. Its now July 2011. Currently at 96,100 miles. Fuel pump is the biggest problem. Delay in starting about 33% of all starts. Already have had to replace it once. As of yet, thats been the biggest repair (that, and the rotors). Handling is nimble, but not hugely solid. The driving experience isnt hugely amazing. Ive had the nagging feeling ever since purchasing it that I could have gotten something better. Its a basic car. Dont expect anything special. The jurys still out on how reliable this car will be and Im strongly debating trading it in for something brand new. Itll definitely worth it if it lasts beyond at least 175,000. I expect around 150,000.

  Poor quality Nissan car - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By dlcruze - October 3 - 10:20 am

  Bought the car new in 2006 and had problems with throttle body system and fuel system repeatedly. Luckily, I purchased a warranty that handled it. Right under 75k miles (warranty expiration)it was in the shop again for throttle body issues. less than one month later and 2k miles over warranty, Im still having similar issues and Nissan Corporation will not repair. I lose power while on the freeway and it has put me in dangerous situations. I will never buy a Nissan again because Nissan Corporate does not back their vehicles or parts.

  Disappointed - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By kim - September 27 - 9:20 pm

  I totally agree with Carolina (first page.) I had a Sentra in the 80s never changed the oil, did any maintenance or anything. Ran like crazy. Now, I totally maintain my 2006 that I bought new and it has had belt replacement, thermostat replacement, heat plate adjustment, and now until it warms up it sound like its going to fall apart under the hood. Also, the cup holder is too close to the stereo controls. It switches from radio to CD when you bump it. The gas mileage isnt the greatest either. I wont buy another Nissan.

  I <3 my Nissan Sentra - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By Kiko is a great car - September 23 - 8:20 pm

  This is my first car, and I named her Kiko. I am 5 feet 1 inches tall and a quarter, and this car HAS PLENTY OF LEG ROOM! The only complaint I have about this car is the cup holders in the front (they always turn on a cd player and/or make it impossible to change the cd that I am listening to) I also have fosgate 6 multiple cd changer which sounds awesome. The car is great on gas, only thing to improve this car would be to make it more powerful in the snow, Buffalo Winter snow.

  Wont buy another nissan - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By conradj87 - August 31 - 2:10 pm

  Bought the car used in 2008 with just under 30k. Since then the radio has quit working (twice). It was the upgraded fosgate one. The transmission has squeaked, nissan wouldnt cover it under powertrain warranty, rear wheel bearing went out, fuel pump, and the belt has squealed on and off since we got it. Exhaust started leaking around 50k miles. The engine is loud when your in the car, and there is a ton of road noise. Car has overall been a nightmare, full of problems. Completely dissappointed. Not at all what I expected from a modern, name brand car. Wont ever buy a nissan again.

  A truly good car. - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By car guy - June 1 - 4:16 am

  Best model: 1.8 S Special Edition. Edmonds data and reviews are wrong. This is an excellent vehicle. Bought this used with 18K miles. For 10 months have driven car in the city or making short commutes. We also have taken two long trips of 2600 miles. I was a mechanic for years. Note: our other car is a Cadillac with all of the bells and whistles. 1.8 Special Edition model has good looking wheels and spoiler, keyless entry, etc. In terms of features it has more than our Cadillac excepting power seats. Interior is typically basic for an economy car. The leg room is fine for anyone under 63. Mileage is 33 with 1.8 Liter engine and auto trans. Handles well. Super sound. Nice car.

  best deal for the money - 2006 Nissan Sentra
  By happy owner - May 16 - 11:36 pm

  I have 16547 miles on this car and its never been in the shop. Front tires are beginning to wear(have not had them rotated). Uncomfortable after a couple of hours of steady driving (legroom). Fantastic gas milage always 38-42 on the highway when speed is kept at 50-55 miles an hour, lowers to 33-35 at 65+ miles per hour. Great value, lots of extras included in price (power everything and remote locks). Nice exterior design, lots of compliments (spoiler and low profile 16" alloy wheels).
