Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 3rd year of college, needed a decent car, picked 2000 nissan sentra. car worked great at first, then led to hesitation and eventually stalling. i thought i fixed the problem, ordered a new throttle position chamber (cause i was told that was the problem) replaced the part, got a tune-up, only to end up with the same problem. the mil illuminated. took vehicle to nissan dealer for diagnostic testing, and they said it started from a sensor gone bad. i was never notified of any of the recalls on this vehicle, and i thought i was safe by financing the vehicle from the dealership. the estimate for repairs was over $2000 from the dealer. i needed to have the entire computer system replaced because the bad wiring shorted everything out. i could not afford to continue making the monthly payments and pricey maintenance so i let her go..sadly i have a nissan altima now and was directed to this site searching for a recall a family member saw on the news today about my vehicle. this is definitely my last nissan! *nm
