Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 NISSAN ALTIMA. SIMILAR TO WHAT I HAVE READ ON DOZENS OF WEBSITE, IT STARTED IDLING HIGH (AT ONLY 55,000 MILES) AND ULTIMATELY HAD TO REPLACE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET AT A COST OF $852.05. I WAS TOLD NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR AFTER THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN DIAGNOSED. SADLY FOR ME, IT WAS THREE WEEKS AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED AND NISSAN REFUSED TO OFFER ANY PRICE BREAK ON THE SERVICE. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE EXCEEDINGLY COMMON - AND OFTEN ON VERY LOW MILEAGE VEHICLES SUCH AS MINE. NISSAN SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR
