| Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2004 nissan altima. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled intermittently while driving 30 mph. On april 20, 2008, the vehicle shut off and was towed to the garage. The mechanic found a loose clip in the intake manifold that caused the spark plugs to fail. The vehicle was towed to the dealer. A diagnosis was not performed because the vin was not included in nissan's preventive service. A report was filed with the manufacturer. The manufacturer stated that the vin did not fall under the preventive service; therefore, they would not assist with the repair. The current and failure mileages were 89,000. |
