| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Prior to getting my 1999 nissan maxima inspected, the 'service engine soon' light turned on and i eventually found out that the light is on because a few of my ignition coils are no longer working. unfortunately, this will be about a $1500 repair (because i was told that i need to replace all of the coils because they can't detect which ones are out) and i am a college student who doesn't make much more than twice that in a year. i was researching online to see if there were any cheaper ignition coils i could purchase, and came to find out that there are so many people with this exact same problem that a petition has been created with over 3,000 signatures(here is the petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?nis_ign&851). i am going to contact my local nissan dealership tomorrow (as i was busy getting estimates from other mechanics ever since i found out about my failed ignition coils until today when i learned that many others with '99-'03 nissan maxima's had this same problem) and hopefully something will be done, but more than anything i believe that they should do what's morally right and issue a recall. *jb |
