| Description of the problem | Went to start car to run an errand while at work on lunch break to get in the car and the car would not start. I'll have to get the car towed not to include the daycare late fees that i'm going to have to pay because i am unable to pick my child up from daycare because they close, needless to say it's $1 per minute that i'm late and it is due at the time of pick up. The cost for the part is $708. 66 not including the labor, stress, and anxiety that this inconvenience has caused. I am infuriated. My other 2009 nissan altima had to have a new transmission replaced just 2 months ago. The nissan quality is going down the drain! |
