NHTSA Complaint #10222982 — 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA

I PURCHASED A 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA, ON FEBRUARY 27 2007 WITH ONLY 24,000 MILES. THREE MONTHS LATER, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO FAIL. I NOTICE SOME JERKING WHEN I SLOWED DOWN AND THEN HIT THE GAS, AS WELL AS A METAL RATTLING NOISE (WHEN I GIVE IT GAS). I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHICH THEY STATED THAT THEY DIDN'T FEEL IT JERK AND THEY DIDN'T HEAR THE RATTLING NOISE. THE NOISE HAS BECOME WORSE. NOW A YEAR LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY CAR WOULDN'T START. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY DIAGNOSE THAT MY IGNITION COIL WENT BAD. (HAD TO REPLACE ALL SIX) COST $1000. TO THIS POINT THE CAR STILL REMAINS IN THE SHOP DUE TO IGNITION COIL. FINALLY, THE ROTOR WENT BAD WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED FOR THE AMT $380. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THIS VEHICLE WHERE THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. I HIGHLY BELIEVE THAT AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE PLACE TO GET THIS ON THE RECALL LIST. *TR
