| Description of the problem | While driving the automobile made a low buzzing sound and immediately stopped moving. All power was lost. I was not able to steer the automobile, the dashboard lights and radio still on and working. I engaged the accelerator once and the auto accelerated and all power was lost again, this time completely. I had it towed to my regular nissan dealership for diagnosis and repair. Diagnosis: battery needs to be replaced. The battery was replaced and i drove the car home and to work the next day. While on my way from work, the exact problem occurred again. I had it towed to autonation nissan again and as i type this complaint the dealership is trying to arrive at the proper diagnosis. I am all of a sudden in fear for my life, had i been on the expressway (i-95, sr-826, fl turnpike, etc. I could have been killed with these two sudden stops if i had been rear-ended. I am the only driver of this automobile. It is in otherwise excellent condition. I have never had this problem before. Only constant issues with "tire sensors" even though i have had them replaced. |
