| Description of the problem | My husband went out to start the cars in the morning before work. The nissan altima would not start. The brake was firmly pushed and the brake lights came on. We have replaced the key fob batteries and the fuse for the engine starter. The key fob locks and unlocks the vehicle, but the car will not start. The desk shows a small yellow key symbol in the top left corner. We have contacted a mechanic about having the car towed. It seems several others have had this issue and nissan is doing nothing about it. I will never, ever, ever purchase another nissan. |
