I have a 2000 Nissan sentry it over heat on me sometimes when driving on the high way it cuts off and cause bumper to bumper hits.
2001 1. 8 engine in a Sentra , driven new from victory Nissan (vn) in chesapeake va, check engine light kept coming on after all the recalls were completed and returned to v. Nissan (vn). $600. 00 later and light coming on 3 times in separate trips to (vn) while trying diagnose the problem I was charged $600. 00 and I had now reached 67,000 miles with my warranty expired and light still on and off, this time it was diagnosed as an internal antifreeze leak into a cylinder, please note $600. 00 later after being towed at my expense twice, numerous sensor's and even the computer in the car, (my old computer was reinstalled by (vn), (vn) wants to make me a new bill to fix the engine properly with the mechanic explaining that the electronic diagnostic tool which cost $90 is just a starting place and they follow the codes and replace the cheapest stuff first like all my sensor's at $200 a pop, even the ones that were not bad according to the test, and after I questioned it, I was told well the "ceramic was cracked" and it was now or later! if it was just a head gasket that bill was going to be now $2,200 and victory Nissan had the nerve to tell me after $2,200. 00 that I still needed to have the head sent out to be pressure checked (optional but required) for an additional $200 to $300 and we can work out something about my $600. 00! I replaced the entire engine for $1234. 00 and Honda is calling my name! certainly unhappy with my first an only dealing's with Nissan and especially with victory Nissan. They insisted on the same mechanic working on the car and I had to wait 7 hours in the waiting room once and numerous times for 4 and 5 hours in addition while I watched the mechanics move in slow motion. Bottom line never deal with victory Nissan!.
Temperature meter was on( h). Consumer went to lift up hood, and coolant was all over engine. Also, vehicle pulled to right. Dealership is aware of problem.
