Consumer Description

I WAS INFORMED THAT I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING ON A RECALL ENGINE AND NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW THE PROBLEM WILL BE ADDRESSED. I JUST PURCHASED THIS 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA NOT EVEN 2 MONTHS AGO AND ALREADY THERE IS A RECALL ON THE MOTOR IN REGARDS TO OIL CONSUMPTION. HOWEVER NISSAN WANTS TO ENSURE THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS BEING MAINTAINED AT A CORRECT LEVEL IN WHICH I WAS INFORMED THAT I NEEDED TO GO TO THE DEALER EVERY 700 MILES. WHY???? DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH OF AN INCONVENIENCE THAT IS TO INDIVIDUALS. GIVE ME A BREAK. THIS PROBLEM HAS TO DO WITH THE ENGINE WHICH IS BEING EXPLAINED THAT IT HAS TO BE REPLACED. WHEN??? HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO PUT OUR LIVES ON HOLD FOR NISSAN. THIS IS A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR COMPANY AND THEY HAVE SOLD 85,000 DEFECTIVE UNITS. WHY SHOULD I PAY A CAR NOTE ON A VEHICLE THAT IS DEFECTIVE AND NO ACTION IS BEING TAKEN TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I FEEL MORE COMMUNICATION IS NEEDED ASAP. PLEASE ADVISE. *NM
