What owners wrote

1-9-07 I purchased a 2007 nissan sentra on 1-13-07 the ps light came on and the power steering was out. It corrected itself and drove okay until 1-18, 2007 I took the car to the dealer. The porter drove the car and confirmed the power steering was not working. I had to argue with the service clerk to demand that the vehicle be checked, after talking with the service manager and the sales manager they agreed to keep the vehicle overnight.
