Latches/locks/linkage problem #1

My car is a 2005 Nissan Sentra limited edition the drivers door will not open. The only way I can open it is if I roll my window down and reach my hand out the door to the handle this IA a safety issue I contacted coast Nissan I have an appointment 9-22-10 they said I have to pay it aprox cost 200. 00 ,it should be paid by Nissan not the consumer my appointment is at 8am I am hoping that I can be reimburse for the safety issue . I hope you stand behind your product.

Door Latch problem #2

This car has been a lemon since purchased. The drivers door handle quit working, the transmission chirps when shifting, it idles rough, and it turns over probably 40 times before starting. Dealership states since it has 36,000 miles on it that it will cost an estimated $1700. 00 to fix. This car had problems from the date of purchase. Beware of the Sentra.
