| Description of the problem | While i was driving my vehicle two alarms were going of on my dash board. I had no clue what either one meant but both include a key type alarm. I was afraid that my car would shut down in the middle of the road thinking i was a burglar. I pulled off to the side of the road, with the vehicle still running, and called a friend to drive behind me while we both had our hazards on. Since then i could only start my vehicle once and at that time i took it to a dealership, with my friend so i had a ride back, and i told them i was having trouble starting my car. They knew exactly the problem and what type of nissan i was driving, they had two others come in within the last month, before i could explain anything and proceeded to explain to me that the part was on back order and said they would give me a call if they could do anything. Driving back home without ever turning off my car was very stressful and when i did return i turned it off and immediately tried to turn back on and it would not start. |
