Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My vehicle is at 22,000 miles. i am on my way to work, when the check engine light suddenly comes on. no sooner than the light came on, my car suddenly looses power, and coasts to a stop. i called giles nissan of lafayette, la, and had the vehicle towed in. i had an appointment set up from 2 weeks before this for the alternator recall and because my cd player kept saying check disc, and would not play a cd. this happened the wednesday before my scheduled appointment. so my car is at nissan overnight before i get a call saying they are just getting to my car, and that they do not have a loaner for me. i was told that it was the "throttle position sensor" that was bad, and that they had overnighted the part, but that the alternator and cd player would take longer. which really blew my mind, since i had an appointment to have those two things fixed. after almost 5 days without a vehicle, we bugged the dealership enough, that they finally got me a loaner car. on the monday. on wednesday, they called and said my car was ready. i picked the car up, and on my way home, the check engine light came on again. i was so afraid that the car would stop on me again, and now i'm in the middle of 5:00 traffic. the car is sputtering. kind of jumping. idling really high, and then when i go to stop, the car's rpms jump up above 1, and then back down before stopping. this causes the car to jump forward or jerk forward a bit. i dropped the car off this morning, and they said now one of the cylinders is misfiring. i don't know why my car was given back to me if it was not fixed. the problems i am having a serious. these could be potentially deadly problems. *jb
