Consumer Description
I PURCHASED MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH ONLY 6 MILES ON IT IN 2014. I ONLY DROVE MY CAR FROM SCHOOL TO HOME, AS THIS WAS MY WORK VEHICLE. I FINISHED PAYING FOR MY NISSAN IN NOVEMBER OF 2019. MY NISSAN RECENTLY REACHED 90,000 MILES AND BEGAN TO SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE BEGAN TO JERK AND IT WOULD NOT MOVE IT WERE PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. THEN AT TIMES WHEN PLACED IN DRIVE THE ENGINE WOULD SHAKE AND ROAR LOUDLY, AND SHUT OFF. MY DAD HAD TO COME AND TOW THE CAR IN TWICE DUE TO IT NOT SHUTTING DOWN ON THE INTERSTATE AND IN TRAFFIC. THE NISSAN WOULD JUST STOP ACCELERATING AND LOSE POWER. IF IT CRANKED BACK UP AT STOP LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS IT WOULD ACCELERATE SO SLOWLY THAT I WOULD GET CAUGHT UNDER RED LIGHTS OR IN THE MIDDLE OF ON-COMING TRAFFIC. IT WOULD SLOWLY PICK UP SPEED WITH THE ACCELERATED PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, BUT THERE WOULD BE A BURNING SMELL THAT THE CAR WILL GIVE OFF AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE IS IN THE WRONG GEAR, WHILE IN DRIVE. *TR
