NHTSA Complaint #10588459 — 2002 NISSAN ALTIMA

NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5 AUTO TRANSMISSION. NEARLY KILLED ME. CAR SUDDENLY WENT TO 20 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WITH 18-WHEEL 30 TON VEHICLE BEHIND ME. BURNS OIL LIKE CRAZY. PUT IN BETTER SYNTHETIC OIL, BURNS FASTER. HAD THE CAR DIE ON THE INTERSTATE AT 75MPH RIGHT IN FRONT OF AN 18-WHEELER. COULD HAVE DIED. COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BY THE NISSAN CORPORATION. KNOW ANY GOOD LAWYERS? THIS IS REALLY DANGEROUS, NISSAN SHOULD RECALL AND REPLACE THIS ENGINE. REPLACED CATALYTIC CONVERTER, O2 SENSOR, PRE-CATALYTIC CONVERTER, SPARK PLUGS, SOME OTHER RELATED STUFF. BURNS OIL EVEN FASTER THAN BEFORE. COMPLETELY RAN OUT OF OIL IN 300 MILES. I AM TRYING 10-40 OIL TO SEE IF THE OIL BURNING PROBLEM WILL SLOW DOWN. CAR ONLY HAS 125000 MILES ON IT. COMPLETE POS. NEVER BUY A NISSAN, I NEVER WILL AGAIN. THIS WAS MY FIRST, ONLY 125K ON IT. I AM USED TO SELLING PERFECTLY GOOD FORD AND VWS AT 250K MILES. ON THE INTERNET MOST PEOPLE FAIL THE PRE-CAT AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER BY 95000 MILES, THEN OVERHEAT AND BLOW THE ENTIRE ENGINE. CARS STOPPING SUDDENLY AT 75 MILES AN HOUR ARE GOING TO KILL PEOPLE. SINCE NISSAN IS WELL AWARE, THIS IS PRE-MEDITATED MURDER. OTHER SYMPTOMS: NO POWER, NO ACCELERATION, NO RESPONSE BY NISSAN DEALER. NISSAN "SERVICE" IS A JOKE. NEVER TAKE A CAR TO NISSAN FOR REPAIRS. UNRELATED SIGN OF REALLY REALLY BAD ENGINEERING: PAINT IS FALLING OFF CAR. NEVER HAD THAT HAPPEN TO A CAR BEFORE, I HAVE A 14 YEAR OLD FORD WITH 240K AND THE ORIGINAL PAINT JOB, EVEN THOUGH IT IS NOT GARAGED. *TR
