Consumer Description

THE OIL LEVEL GAUGE (DIPSTICK) OF 2002 NISSAN SENTRA IS VERY EASY TO BREAK. MY DIPSTICK'S A RUBBER/PLASTIC HANDLE WAS BROKEN DURING OIL CHANGE, AND THE BLADE WAS STUCK IN THE TUBE AND VERY DIFFICULT TO GET IT OUT. A DEALERSHIP ASKED $100 TO JUST PULL THE BROKEN BLADE OUT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DIRECT RESULT OF POOR DESIGN, AND I HAVE ALSO SEEN NUMEROUS SIMILAR FAILURES ON NISSAN SENTRA. THE MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PART IMMEDIATELY. *JB
