problem #1

Altima 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 2,950 miles
I purchased my vehicle 3 months ago. At approxiamately 2950 miles, my service engine soon light came on. Immediatly after that my car became sluggish and is having acceleration problems and feels like it is dragging. Brought to dealer service and they said the problem is with the throttle body and they have to order a replacement part. They released the car to me. I asked them if it were okay to drive, and if doing so would it make the problem worse, they advised no, it is okay to drive. I called in 3 days later to see if the part was recieved, they stated it was not, they claim the part is on back order.
