| Description of the problem | On tuesday feb 14, 2012 i took my car in cause it had a recall for the gas gauge not reading gas level. My car was reading check engine soon, car was working perfect they put the computer on and nothing came up as the car having anything wrong with it. Even the check engine light had turned off. On friday feb 17, 2012 while driving in the middle of the highway my car completely turned off and would not start at all i had someone help me push the car to the side of the road, where then i finally got it to start again. Called nissan and they told me they can send a tow truck to bring it into the dealer but if has nothing to do with the work that was done i have to be responsible for the tow. The person at the dealer that i spoke to said that according to the information i was giving him of the problem it may have something to do with the work but he couldn't be sure. On sat feb 18, 2012 i took my car into the dealer, now they tell me that all of a sudden the cracker system of the car was bad because when they changed the fuel gauge there's more electricity is going in and that was the problem i had to pay 300. 46 for something that i was not told could happen if i fixed something that wasn't given me any real problems before. Now the car is saying check engine soon again and the truth is i'm afraid to take it back to the dealer. I've had that car for 6 years never, ever had a problem with the car i take it to the dealer and now different things are coming up. |
