Consumer Description

MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5 4 CYL QRD25 ENGINE HAS HAD CONSTANT PROBLEMS INCLUDING EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WHICH LEAD TO CYLINDER 1 THROWING A ROD. RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEMS AND FOUND 1000'S OF OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. PURCHASED A REPLACEMENT ENGINE WITH 60,000 MILES AND THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING. NO OIL LEAKS, JUST USES A QUART OF OIL/PER 60 TO 100 MILES. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS SITUATION AND HAS REPLACED SEVERAL ENGINES. I SEE THAT THEY ARE NOW OFFERING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT DOES NOT WISH TO HELP. WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IF ONE HAS BEGUN. *TR
