Altima

  • miles
My 97 Nissan Altima(milelage: 66K) runs perfectly expect that occasionally once I press the brake tightly and the car stop totally, the car accelerates suddently and rush forward, I have to repress the brake very quickly to stop it again. Since this January it happened twice. First time I almost hit the car in front of me and I thought the reason is that I didn't press the brake tightly. For the second time, I was quite sure I pressed the brake firmly and stop at a stop line, but suddently the car rushed out and crashed in another car. I've already had a brake system check and couldn't find any problem. I paid more than $2,000 for the car I crashed but I feel very underserved, and I don't know where to complain. And also I hope my case could supply some useful information for your database, that's the reason I write to you. Thank you so much! sincerely, li qiang.
