problem #1

Feb 042005

Altima 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 19,000 miles
Car just stops sometimes and it will not start. Consumer almost has to flood the engine before it starts. Dealer told consumer she needed to pump the gas 3 times before she started the car. She had vehicle in the repair shop because the car was idling very fast. They put a throttle chamber in it, then it started to do the same thing again. Dealer said it was unsafe because it was racing too high; they ordered a new part for the car. It is still doing the same thing. Updated 02/07/06.
