| Description of the problem | When coming to a red light on a one lane highway with a light. Light turned red, when coming to a stop, the car began shaking. I was behind another car and was afraid because the car was shuttering, jerkin, shaking so much i did not feel like i had control of the car. Once i stopped, the car engine shut off. The light turned green, but i was unable to move my car. When i tried to start the car, it would run in park, but when i put it in drive, it would stall out. I was stranded in the middle of an intersection. I could move by car by slight inches every time i restarted the engine and would stall out. Just enough to move the major of my car out of the intersection. Eventually, the battery died and i was towed to a local mechanic. This problem started the day before when i was going to work. I also, took my vehicle to the nissan dealership i had bought the vehicle from months prior, because the car would shake and shut off when i came to complete stops at street light and stop signs. After, a diagnostic test i was told nothing was wrong. At that time, i was under warranty, i no longer am. |
