Consumer Description

I HAVE A 1999 NISSAN MAXIMA OF WHICH I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY FOR THE LAST YEAR. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR TO A NUMBER OF SERVICE PROVIDERS INCLUDING A DEALERSHIP AND BEEN TOLD THAT THE CODES GENERATED ARE NOT CONCLUSIVE BUT, DUE TO A KNOWN DEFECT, THE RECOMMENDATION HAS BEEN THAT I REPLACE ALL OF THE IGNITION COILS AT A COST OF NEARLY $1500. SEEMS TO ME IF ITS A "KNOWN DEFECT" THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS PROBLEM I UNDERSTAND IT TO BE VERY WIDE SPREAD. *NM
