| Description of the problem | My car would not start and i was forced to sit in my car for hours as the stores had closed and it took over a hour to have my car towed. This left me in a situation in which i could have been harmed as a young woman in vulnerable situation. Nissan states that this is a manufacturer irregularity which means this is something that shouldn't be happening and is a manufacture issue. After getting it diagnosed by a certified nissan dealer, i was told it was my escl. Nissan should honor their word and fix the issue at no cost since it's a manufacture malfunctioning issue in which the customer has no control over. |
