Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A 2010 NISSAN ALTIMA ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO. THE FIRST PROBLEM STARTED WITH THE CAR FAILING TO START. THAT PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS TO THIS DAY. THE NEXT PROBLEM IS MY CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE AT TIMES. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INCIDENT WHEN I AM AT A STOP LIGHT, INTERSECTION, OR REDLIGHT WHERE I APPLY THE GAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND IT STILL WOULD NOT MOVE. AFTER WAITING ABOUT 20 SECOND AND APPLY THE GAS IT FINALLY GOES AND DRIVE NORMAL. ME AND MY KIDS WERE ALMOST IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WHEN THE CAR STALLED IN FRONT OF A BIG MACK TRUCK. NOW AFTER THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS, MY CAR SITS IN MY FRONT YARD UNABLE TO MOVE AT ALL AND NOW THERE'S A BURNING SMELL COMING FROM THE CAR. THESE CARS ARE A DEATH TRAP AND I REFUSE TO KEEP PUTTING MY LIFE AND MY CHILDREN LIVES IN DANGER. THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING!!! *TR
