SERVICE INFORMATION

On all Sentra and Stanza Wagon four-wheel-drive models, it is very important that regular tire rotation be performed according to the maintenance schedules in the appropriate service manuals. On these vehicles, difficulty in shifting out of the four-wheel-drive mode could occur if the front tires are allowed to wear down more than the rear tires. A difference in tire circumference, front to rear, causes a strain at the driveline between front and rear axles.
