Maybe I missed it, but does the first recall apply to the 2.0--SR20DE, specfically a 2001 SE?
2000 Sentra Se (sr20de) Been In The Shop For A Ac Line & A Starter (warranty) 86k & She Hits 6250 Shifts Every Day So Not All New Cars Have Issues (this Is Comming From A Ase Cert Tech Do The Little Mantance Things The'll Run 4 Ever, Unless Its A Ford)
I bought my 02 Spec V in November of 2001; shouldn't I have gotten a recall notice? I've gotten them in the past; strange.
My SE-R sees 6250RPM every time I drive it; it does use a little oil but otherwise has been running great the last 32k miles. That is with three thousand mile oil changes with Mobil 1 and Nissan brand filters. I'm not too pleased with the oil burning; but it's only about a fourth of a quart every three thousand miles, so it's not like I have constantly add oil to it.
I'm in the same boat, I never received a recall notice on my 02 GXE, and it has been nearly two months, since the recall came out. If it wasn't for the forums here, I would have probablly never found out.
Update: Called Nissan, and they were going to look in to why I never received my notice (If they did that, pigs will fly).

I dropped my Sentra off yesterday on the Cam Sensor and ECU recall. I talked to the service manager Dave, who was helping me on trying to get my fender fix. He stated to me, Nissan was taking there time to send out recall notices, due to the scope of how many Sentras have these problems. They didn't want a mad rush at the Service departments.
That was the reason why I didn't get my notice, and also, my sentra is one of the last 02's off the line.

Thanks for letting me know. I have not received mine either.
Just remember to get the recall info from http://www.nissanusa.com
Then click on Owning > Recalls, choose your model and year and look at the recall and see if your Sentra is affected. Then print the recall(s), by highlighting the recall text, then File > Print (make sure you choose Print Selection options) and then print out the recall(s). Then contact your local dealership and schedule an appointment, you should have it back the same day.
I hope this helps.
I got the recall work done yesterday. I've also been experiencing sputtering or near stall when shifting to drive and when cold. Also, check engine light was on. I was hoping to identify the problem when they did the recall work. The light came back on today. How can I get the trouble codes (flash codes)? It's a 2000 Sentra GXE.
Yeah i agree......i know its a new car and expected a reacall, but not every month.......hmmmmmm i should have bought my hemi truck!
Got some info about Nissan on this recall
