 Description of the problemPurchased car may of 2013, pre-owned certified and only 21000miles. From onset of ownership, brakes made noises, "cyclop brake light in rear window would blink constantly, dash lights would go from dim to bright all the time. The car would hesitate when leaving stop position, pushing electronic start button would not work often. Dealership always said that the situation could not be duplicated. On dec. 2nd, 2015 while driving home i was approaching a stopped car in the middle of the road and tried to slow below the 20mph i was driving and the brake pedal went all the way to the floor and all dash lights went blank and the car stalled resulting in a collision. The car would not start for over 2 hours. The dealership asked about the key fob location and battery condition and the batteries were good and key fob was on front seat where it always was. I filed a customer complaint with nissan consumer affairs on dec, 4th 2015 and constantly got run-arounds with no call backs several time. I was left without a vehicle and no help from dealership or nissan consumer affairs. While reading the many complaints of other altima's i was so concerned with my safety and health i purchased another car. I believe i had an electrical issue from the beginning and it could not be diagnosed and it ended up with a collision involving another car.
