| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I purchased a brand new 2006 altima june 2006, i loved my car from the day it was purchased, until recently when my brakes started to make that annoying squeaking noise i thought too myself, wow how can this be, my car is only five months old. i thought to myself it must be the way i am stepping on the brake, but to my surprise the next afternoon i received in the mail recall information, i read it over and was disgusted, i just purchased the vehicle and i am being told my engine may need to be replaced and high oil consumption will occur and possibly a fire!! i was very upset i was to contact the dealer but this all occurred during the thanksgiving holiday, so i drove my sister honda suv for the holiday, my car sat without being driven for about four days. i was absolutely sick when my father asked to use my car when he attempted to start my car it would not start he tried several times before it finally started and when it did he placed the car in drive the car took off at a fast speed with him barely touching the gas pedal, an accident could have occured, all the lights lit up and smoke began to seep out of the back of vehicle. i immedialey called my service dapartment and they said its normal, i dont think so, maybe if my car was a 1996 instead of a 2006 he told me to bring it in and he will inspect everything including, the recalled parts. i am truly upset and disgusted with nissan they sold me a piece of crap, they knew about the recall and did not inform me when i purchased the vehicle, who wants a new vehicle and have something replaced within a few months of purchasing a new car not me!! i could have purchased a used car. there is no repair that can be done to satisfy me i would like a replacement vehicle with no prior incidents or my money back. *jb |
