Description of the problem	On monday night 11/25/13 i drove to my local supermarket and when i went back to my car, it wouldn't start after pushing the start button. Several lights lit up; service engine soon, battery, oil light, brake light etc. I tried it a few times with no luck. I then tried shifting from park to drive and back to park. Tried to start it again and no luck. After waiting about a minute i tried it again and it finally started. It has been starting since then (today is 11/29/13) but needless to say i am very nervous and concerned that this will happen again and i won't be near home. This needs to be looked into by nissan and a recall issued since it seems to be happening to many owners.. My brother also owns a 2009 altima and this happened to him last year and he had to get the car towed to the dealer.
