| Description of the problem | Drove to 7/11 to get gas. Turned the car off. When i got back in the car to leave the car would not start. There was an amber key on the dashboard. There have been a major number of complaints filed for this same reason. The immobilizer locked out the wheel shaft which locked out the key faub. Since the car thinks it has been stolen the car will do nothing. No nissan dealership is open on a sunday and they are knowingly doing nothing about the issue. I never received any notices that there could have been an issue in the 3 years i've had my car. There has been a huge number of complaints on blogs which i discovered today after attempting to get my car started again. |
