| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Sudden failure of clutch to go back up to normal position (remained depressed and failed to shift to another gear) while driving nissan altima se-r at freeway less than 2 weeks after purchase. unable to drive car safely, it forced me to stop on side of road. drove it to the nearest nissan dealer in santa monica, ca but cannot duplicate the problem. reassured that it is okay and drove car back and forth to work until clutch got burnt and we were charged of approx $1500.00 for the repair. we were back and forth to the nissan dealer since then for creaky noises when stepping clutch and shifting, difficulty to shift especially in the first run in the morning, and clutch continued failure to return to normal position when depressed. took the car to the dealers many times now for these problems more than normal maintenance for a car of less than 2 years. please advise. can't afford to drive an unsafe and unreliable car nowadays for considerable amount of money we paid. nt. *nm |
