Check engine light came on and the engine is running rough. Took it to the dealer in Sept '02 and they determined the coils were no good. They replaced them under warranty. Now the car is doing the same thing again and the dealer advised that the coils need replacing again. Dealer mentioned there was a problem with the original coils. Obviously they used original coils when they replaced them in 2002. Now the dealer will not replace them again because the car is no longer under warranty. Contacted Nissan directly and they also refused to pay for the coils or the labor.
