NHTSA Complaint #11243458 — 2016 NISSAN VERSA

TRYING TO LEAVE FOR WORK, TURN ON MY CAR AND THEN THERE WAS A SQUEAL (LIKE A BELT) AND THEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, NOT THE CAR (BATTERY IS WORKING). I DO THIS ABOUT THREE TIMES TO SEE IF MAYBE THE GAS NEEDED TO BE PRESSED OR IF THE CAR NEEDED TO BE IN GEAR, SAME THING HAPPENED. I CALL MY FATHER FOR ADVISE, AND I WANTED HIM TO HEAR THE NOISE BEFORE THE SHUT OFF, SO I TURN OFF THE RADIO, AC, EVERYTHING. THEN THE CAR STARTS AND STAYS ON. TURNS OUT THAT IF I HAD THE FAN GOING IT WAS SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE. I TAKE IT TO SISK NISSAN AND THEY INSPECT, SAY FIRST THAT ITS THE CONDENSER AND AFTER THE PART IS ORDERED AND THE CAR TAKEN APART THEY SAY THAT THE WHOLE AC SYSTEM IS CONTAMINATED. THE COMPRESSOR HAD STOPPED WORKING. ONE WEEK WITHOUT AC AND ONE WEEK IN THE SHOP TO REPLACE THE WHOLE AC SYSTEM.
