Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The 2003 nissan altima recently started stalling for no apparent reason. initially it happened while at a stop light, then pulling out of a gas station there was minimal risk of an accident. then yesterday as i was driving down the road the car hesitated briefly before accelerating and then within seconds all power was lost. it took nearly 15 tries to restart, at which point, i parked it and had it towed to the dealership, who wa stelling me that there was no sign that the crank sensors need to be replaced, which was what i was told would take care of the problem), and therewas nothing they could do if they can't get it to repeat what happened yesterday. a month ago, i had ii at dealer when this problem originally occurred and the computer was reprogrammed. i was told that it took care of the problem in about 85% of the cases. i' was at a loss. i have only one car and i need it to be reliable. i could not take a chance of being on the interstate at rush hour in a car that might decide to stall on me. i have seen many complaints of this same nature ,and was wondering why no one seemed to know what the problem was. any help you could provide would be most appreciated. *ak |
