Replying to: dallar (Apr 08, 2008 5:30 pm) I am beginning to wonder if electric power steering isn't quite ready for "prime time". And, not only within Nissan, but other manufacturers as well. I also have a BMW Z4, with electric power steering, and I have read that it has become an issue on some of those models as well. So far, it hasn't been a problem I recently purchase a 08 Altima, and was surprised at first to see that it had the traditional power steering pump set-up. The more I read about electric power steering, I'm rather glad that it didn't come equipped that way.
#23 of 24 Sentra a Reliable, Practical Saab Alternative by observer22 Apr 21, 2008 (12:41 pm)
The current Sentra seems to perhaps have an identity problem. I compared the Sentra's length/width/front shoulder room to the Saab 9-3 (now the smallest Saab) and found them to be very, very close. The Sentra SE-R Spec V is faster, less expensive, more reliable and has much better resale than the Saab 9-3. The newest generation Sentra has grown into legitimate competition for the Saab 9-3 and Volvo S60, especially the SE-R Spec V. Perhaps many will agree with me that the Sentra is more attractive than the Saab. And salesman will not laugh at you if you try to trade it in as they would if you tried trading in a Saab.
