Consumer Description

2000 NISSAN ALTIMA GXE HAS A FAULTY INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET. THE PROBLEM STARTED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. MY CAR SHAKES WHILE IDLE AND THE RPMS GAUGE MOVES UP AND DOWN WHILE IDLE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND THEY REPLACED SPARK PLUGS, KNOCK SENSOR. AFTER THAT, THE SAME THING HAPPENED A FEW MONTHS LATER. TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE SAME DEALER AND THEY NOW SAY THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET IS LEAKING. I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT A DIFFERENT REASON EVERY TIME I GO TO THE DEALER TO FIX. WILL LITTLE RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL COSTLY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS SAME PROBLEM. WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP FOR CONSUMERS THAT ARE BEING RIPPED OFF BY THE NISSAN CORPORATION? *TR
