The warranty work was done two weeks ago. Last week the car would not start again, would not turn over in the morning. My wife got it started in the afternoon and drove to the dealership. They are puzzled. I am angry this was the sixth time the car left me stranded.

Do you drive a 2010 NISSAN SENTRA?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
