  • Fun car - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    Great little car. I downsized from a 2005 Maxima. It is fun to drive and has quite a bit of power. I havent seen great fuel eco. though. I get around 22 in the city and 27 on the hwy. Hopefully that will improve.

  • True pocket rocket - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    I tested the Civic Si, and Jetta GLI. I went to the Nissan dealership to look at the 07 Nissan coupe. Was attracted by the looks of the Spec V. I traded in a Jetta Turbo. The spec v is a lot faster, and rides better. I get an average of 25mpg and Im not a light footed driver. Ive gotten as high as 45 mpg with this. My X has a 07 GTI, and this is faster (we raced) and still is a larger car. Its almost like a stock sleeper. Plus you have to love the 6 spd manual, performance clutch, sport tires, big brakes, and gas shocks. Go take a look at one.

  • First Impressions - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    Im writing this the night of my first day with my new Sentra. I will give just a simple summary of what Ive observed in the first 24 hours. I like the exterior. Its small-looking on the outside, but really big and roomy on the inside. The trunk space is amazing, considering it doesnt even look like it has a trunk from the outside. The engine makes a lot of noise upon acceleration, but thats the only flaw Ive seen so far. It handles great, it accelerates great (minus the noise) and the interior is smartly designed. I should have no trouble parking this in the city because its compact, but it doesnt feel like that on the inside. Overall Im very impressed on the first day.

  • My First New Car - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    I drove up from Las Vegas to South East Washington to buy this Car (I saved 2k doing so). I was some what worried because I didnt have the ABS pkg. and there were icy conditions. Well on the way back my buddy who had bought a pre-owned 4x4 truck got hit buy a gust of wind, lost traction and rolled it. 4 of us were now in 1 car. We had some icy roads all the way down into central Nevada but by brand new Sentra handled like champ! I did a lot (I mean obsessive amounts) of research on cars in this class and price range. I was going to get a used Honda Civic but when given the opportunity to get a Brand New Sentra I jump on it. Honda and Toyota make you pay for all the nice stuff.

  • Its Got Bugs - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    I decided to go with the 07 model after totaling my 97 Sentra in early 2006. It seemed like a nice upgrade. Almost immediately I began having problems with drivers seat making squeaking noise and shifting forward/backward just to annoy me. Three dealerships, and they all say they cant duplicate it. CD player likes to fade in and out when I turn it up loud, and the drivers side door lock controls are making a "whooshing" sound when I use it. Since its not happening "all the time", Nissan wont address the problem. Ive learned its got to break in order for them to fix it while its under warranty, otherwise wait for your warranty to expire and revisit them. Theyll fix it then.

  • Great Mileage - After 15k - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    Great highway miles after 15k miles - suddenly mileage went up 3 - 4 mpg. Now averages 34 - 36 on highway at 67 mph (about 2,000 rpm) Love bluetooth, quiet ride, & CVT - no gear lurching and slight hum isnt noticeable unless your foot is on the floor. Hate the absolutely terrible plastic interior - look sideways at it and it mars - completely ruins the great design.

  • Engine Replacement Already @ 82,000 - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    I bought a 2007 Nissan Sentra 2.0 with a automatic CVT transmisson back in 2008... I have always keep up on my repairs, oil changes etc. The other day the service engine soon light came on so of course I took it in to be looked at. I was told by the mechanic that the engine needs to be replaced because the second cylinder has low compression which would run $3,000, What a joke! I have only had the car for a little over two years now... I was told by the mechanic that for the year the car was and how many miles it has on it (>82,000) that it should not have happened. Sentras for the year 2007 are nothing but Lemons. I will never ever do business with Nissan again!

  • Tire Sensors are a pain! - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    I have had this car for almost a yr now. I like in the Chicago land area. I travel 30 miles one way to work. The car was very reliable over the winter. I dont like the way the car handles in windy conditions or at speeds over 60 MPH. The only major problem I have had is the darn tire sensors which is now on every time I get into the car. My tires deflated every time the temperature changed so I had to purchase an air compressor to save time and money on having someone come put air in my tires. I was really tempted to get all new tires but there was nothing wrong with the tires on the car. So now the light never goes off. The sensors are expensive to replace (Quotes $125-$180)Hate the sensors!

  • Love the Sentra! - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    Solid, roomy, quiet, smooth, comfortable, beautifully appointed, and the bluetooth and intelligent key such a luxury in a compact/midsize sedan. My husband is 62" and has tons of room. We are in our 50s and are thrilled with this car.

  • WORST CAR EVER HAD - 2007 Nissan Sentra
    By -

    WHERE DO I START....THIS CAR HAS GIVEN ME PROBLEMS SINCE A WEEK FROM ME DRIVING IT OFF THE LOT. I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH 6 MILES ON IT AND IVE HAD THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS..GAS COVER STUCK, 3RD TRANSMISSION, DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS, LIGHTS NOT WORKING INSIDE OF THE CAR, SHIFTER IN THE CAR CAME APART... MY SISTER HAS THE SAME CAR AND HAS HAD MOST OF THOSE PROBLEMS PLUS REPLACING HER STEERING COLUMN...NISSAN GAVE ME A HARD TIME TO FIX THESE ITEMS(THAT WERE UNDER WARRANTY) THE CAR IS NOT WORTH THE PRICE. IT HAS HAD MORE WEAR-N-TEAR DAMAGE COSTS THEN THE ACTUAL WORTH OF THE CAR. HAVE IT FULLY MAINTAINCED BEFORE BUYING THAT YEAR OF SENTRA. I TRADED IT IN WITH 46,000 MILES ON IT BECAUSE IT WAS TOO MUCH $!
