I rented vehicle for the weekend and used it for 1 day. i drove it down state to champaign 250 miles and made a stop. when i got back in the car and started it up, it hesitated to change gears but did, so i turned and drove the car home to chicago. the weather temperature was very fridget outside . when i got to chicago the vehicle stopped i could start it up but it would go into gear. the engine sounded very fine there was nothing else noticeable, no loud noises in the car. i called enterprise aaa towed the car to the enterprise rental place. i rented a smoke color vehicle. my insurance company said that he is charging me $5,000.00 for a brand new transmission for a 2005 nissan and for a serpentine belt and a oil change . the vehicle has already been repaired. i have not been given any information on anything or its whereabouts. *jb

Radiator failure at 45,000 mile check (oct. 3, 2006) mechanic report: leaking and needs to be replaced. vehicle: 2004 nissan altima 2.5l, vehicle purchased: october, 2003 as of today (oct. 4, 2006) the radiator has not been replaced. under normal operating conditions, with no accidents, the radiator should not fail at such a low mileage. i have reason to believe a similar failure is occurring on my wife's car (40,000 miles), purchased the same month. nissan needs to do a recall, and pay for this replacement. *nm

My 2004 nissan altima is stalling at red lights and while i am driving. this could cause and accident since it happens without warning. i have taken the car in to the nissan dealership numerous times for repair. this problem did not occur with my car until the recall work for the ecm reprogramming was done. but, it has been happening since then. sometimes multiple times per week. i have paid to have the problem correct more than once, and nothing that has been done has stopped this problem. this is definitely a safety hazard. *tr

I purchased my 2002 nissan altima in december of 2001 with 4 miles on it in mid october. since that time i have taken it over and over to the nissan service department because it cuts off on me out of the blue. it cut off first going down a hill, the wheel just locked and it shut down. i immediately i contacted passport nissan and sheey nissan in maryland and was told to bring it in on the next day. nissan service department said we can't find anything wrong at this time. a few weeks later it cut off again i had to push it off the road. i called nissan1 usa the following day to report this they said to take it back to a nissan dealer. nissan 1 usa does not provide any kind of support, guidance or solutions to this problem. i have contacted them on several different times and made mention to a case number that they gave me but for some strange reason they could never find my case number and i have to restart this whole boring procedure over again. i have had my car towed into the dealership at least 4 times for this problem. the dealer maintains that they could not find or duplicate the problem. the check engine light came on and my car at 20,000 miles and still remains on until this day which currently has accumulated 100,000 miles (unfortunately due to my line of business i need daily transportation to travel back and forth through cities and through states) my car right now (correction nissan piece of car) right now would not accelerate over 30 mph. it continues to cut off and whenever i take this to the dealer they could find nothing wrong with it or don_x0019_t even provide a rental car and i have to pay for different things that they say might be the problem. i have told the dealers and nissan1 usa that i am not paying for anything else. as a result of this incident, i missed work and business with important clients. samuel a merrin 301-535-7005. *ak
