| Description of the problem | I was driving my 2015 altima on a highway and the car suddenly stopped as in a stall with cars behind me swerving off the highway to avoid hitting me. The car had on oil and the oil warning light did not come on until my car stopped, then it said warning low oil pressure. I had just had an oil change at port city nissan, portsmouth, nh, and the service person apparently did not reattach the oil filter correctly, cross-threading the filter resulting in the oil leaking out without me knowing. Again, my concern is there was no warning before my car stalled and stopped on a highway. No oil pressure light or low oil alert, nothing until i was almost in a serious accident. |
