| Description of the problem | It started with a loud noise out of the left front wheel then the abs light came on then the back and service engine light and then the speedometer would read the speed. Then it shuts down if im at a stop light for a while or out of nowhere this is not safe!!! At all as it can cause and accident. Its has happened at turning lanes and the car behind thank god stop in time or else he would of rear ended me. Soo i took it to the dealer and said it needed a new abs pump, harness, and ipdm. I've only had this car for 9months its a 2004 nissan maxima with 56,000miles on it and for the price i paid this shouldn't be happening to a car that claims to be sooooo reliable. Not happy at all!!!!! Now im stuck paying $2500. 00 for repair and something that i've read sooo many complaints about and nissan just avoids it and says cant do anything since it has no warranty very disappointed!!!! Angry!!! Frustrated!!! And broke!!!!! |
