NHTSA Complaint #10242474 — 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA

MY CAR WAS RUNNING FINE UNTIL I GOT IN MY CAR ONE DAY AND IT WOULD BARELY CRANK. IT TOOK IT A MINUTE, BUT IT FINALLY DID. THAT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THEN, WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, MY CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY, WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS EXTREMELY SCARY AND I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WILL NOT LOOK AT IT BECAUSE MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. WELL, MY LIGHT DIDN'T COME ON UNTIL THIS STARTED HAPPENING. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY CAR FITS THE DESCRIPTION OF THE RECALL TO A TEE. I HAVE GONE TO A MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT BEING WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR WILL MAKE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT LOOK AT IT OR FIX IT BECAUSE OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND HOPEFULLY SOON. I CARRY YOUNG CHILDREN IN MY CAR AND ITS THE ONLY MEAN OF TRANSPORTATION I HAVE. I DON'T NEED SOMETHING TO HAPPEN WHILE DOING THIS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
