1995 Nissan 200SX Complaints

WHEN VEHICLE GOT WARM IT RAN ROUGHLY. CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO SEVERAL DIFFERENT MECHANICS, AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH VEHICLE. CONSUMER FELT VEHICLE WAS IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE SHE PURCHASED IT. ALSO, CONSUMER PURCHASED A LOT OF PARTS FOR THIS VEHICLE, BUT NOTHING HELPED. *AK

I TRIED TO PURCHASE TWO FRONT TIRES AT COSTCO, BUT WAS TOLD BY THE GENERAL MANAGER 'CHRIS MOORE' THAT THEIR POLICY IS ONLY TO MOUNT ONE OR TWO TIRES WHEN PURCHASED ON THE REAR. THEY REFUSED TO MOUNT THE TIRES ON THE FRONT AND INSISTED THAT THEY MOUNT MY TWO REAR TIRES BY DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS ON THE FRONT. ONE TIRE IS A GOODYEAR RS AND THE OTHER A MICHELIN X, BOTH 185X65X14 ON A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE NISSAN SE. I INSISTED THAT TWO DIFFERENT BRANDS WITH POORER TREAD WOULD AFFECT STEERING AND HANDLING, BUT COSTCO REFUSED TO SELL AND MOUNT THE TIRE. I OFFERED TO SIGN A WAIVER BUT WAS TOLD BY THE STORE MANAGER THAT MICHELIN HAD A POLICY AND THAT THEY HAD TO HONOR IT FOR SAFETY. I GUESS THAT COSTCO OR ANY STORE CAN SET NHTSA POLICY THESE DAYS. ON THE COSTCO WEB SIGHT, IT STATES THE FOLLOWING: "WHEN BUYING JUST TWO NEW TIRES, SHOULD THEY BE PUT ON THE FRONT OR REAR? WHEN YOU SELECT A PAIR OF REPLACEMENT TIRES IN THE SAME SIZE AND CONSTRUCTION AS THOSE ON THE CAR, YOU MUST PUT THEM O...

HIGH PRICED REPAIRS-I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 2 YRS AND I BELIEVE I'M THE SECOND OWNER. I BOUGHT IT USED. ITS A 1995 NISSAN 200 SX SE-R WITH 108K MILES AND I'VE HAD MORE PROBLEMS WITH IT THAN I BARGAINED FOR. EVERY MONTH IT'S SOMETHING NEW WITH THE CAR. I'M RUNNING OUT OF PATIENCE AND MONEY GETTING THE CAR FIXED AND FINANCIALLY I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER CAR RIGHT NOW NOT TO MENTION THE REPAIRS ON THIS ONE. TOTAL I'VE PROBABLY SPENT WELL OVER $2000 IN THE TWO YEARS THAT I'VE HAD IT. MOST RECENTLY, I'M HAVING TO REPLACE THE CLUTCH AND BOTH CV JOINTS, THE TRANSMISSION SEAL, MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LATCH (THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN DECIDES TO WORK ON ITS OWN) AND MY SPEED SENSOR. I'M FINDING MYSELF PUTTING MORE MONEY INTO THIS CAR THAN I CAN AFFORD. TWO YEARS AGO I HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT BREAKS AND THE LEFT ROTOR. LAST YEAR I REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR, STARTER, BATTERY, ONE O2 SENSOR (I HAVE TWO), THE CATYLLITIC CONVERTER AND THE LINKAGE WITH MY WIPERS (THANK GOODNESS THAT WAS A RECALL AND...

NO SUMMARY LISTED FOR ABOVE VEHICLE. *AK

I GOT OFF WORK AND GOT IN MY CAR. WHEN I STARTED IT THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STARTED BLINKING. I LET IT SLIDE FOR A LONG TIME AFTER CONTACTING NISSAN BECAUSE OF HOW EXPENSIVE THE PART WAS. NOW IM TRYING TO SELL THE CAR AND I HAD TO FIX IT. COST 623 DOLLARS ALTOGETHER. STARTED LOOKING INTO AND FOUND OUT THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF AIRBAG PROBLEMS WITH THE 200SX, SOME EVEN WITH INJURIES. I THINK NISSAN ATLEAST OWES US AN EXPLANATION OF WHY THIS IS HAPPENING, MAYBE EVEN A RECALL TO BE MADE.*AK
