| Description of the problem | I had purchased a new 2013 nissan altima from bommarito nissan on 11/6/2012 my car only had 252 miles on it. When i had taken the acre back to the dealer for a oil change that's when i was notified that they will have to order parts for my car for the fuel ratio sensor and ecu with new updates since this was made the car has being running horrible and when the car was taken to the dealer they stated that the car has all the updates and this is how it supposed to run so they could not duplicate the concern. I did research and see that others have the same problem. Nissan does not want to pay for another diagnostic that i would have to pay for it. This car is carp and if i wanted a used car i would have bought one without any power because the car seem to loose power you have to turn off air to get speed and punch your foot into the floor to get power and its idled to high as if it is not getin any gas i would like this issue to looked into because there is a problem on hand and others have the same problem and nissan is not wanting to fix these problems. |
