| Description of the problem | My check engine light came on in my 2007 nissan altima. I took it to a mechanic who did a diagnostic and said that it was my catalytic converter and i needed to replace it. I looked online and found out that nissan had a recall on the catalytic converter back in 2007 but i never received it. Now that my car has passed the warranty mileage, they refuse to do anything about this. I feel that they are not correctly notifying consumers of their recall information intentionally so they don't have to pay for this and all the burden will then be on the consumer. I feel nissan should take care of this since they knew there was a problem the year i bought my car. |
