| Description of the problem | Our 2009 altima, left us stranded in a remote location. The car was parked and turned off. We have aaa so we didn't have to pay for towing. But we thought it was something simple like battery, or batteries in the remote key. Research has shown us that is a known problem with this specific year make and model of vehicle. And nissan is clearly not helping they're customers with this safety issue . We where luckier than some people that have been stranded in worse places, with children and no warning. This fix is costing us $894. 00 at the nissan service , i filed a case with nissan they refused to help, so we where stuck once again with our car at the service center with a $105. 00 diagnostic charge. So we couldn't take it somewhere else for less expensive repair. They caught us hook, line, and sinker . |
