Consumer Description

I HAVE PUSH BUTTON START. WHEN I PUSH THE BUTTON IT WILL CLICK AS IF THE BATTERY IS DEAD (NEW BATTERY) AND THEN NOTHING. I PUSH 7 TO 16 MORE TIMES AND THEN THE CAR STARTS. IT MAY DO THAT SEVERAL DAYS IN A ROW, SEVERAL TIMES ON ONE DAY, OR NOT FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC (NOT NISSAN) AND THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST SHOWED NOTHING WRONG. MECHANIC THOUGHT MAYBE IT COULD BE A STARTER BEGINNING TO GO BAD BUT THERE WAS NOTHING TO POINT TO THE STARTER. HE CALLED IT A "GHOST" PROBLEM BECAUSE IT COMES AND GOES. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE IGNITION SWITCH. ONCE IT CATCHES, THE CAR RUNS JUST FINE. I BELIEVE MY ISSUE IS RELATED TO THE PRESENT NISSAN RECALL ALTHOUGH MY CAR IS NOT PART OF THE GROUP. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT TO NISSAN YET BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN WORKING FOR TWO WEEKS. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN AUGUST 2007.
