Car randomly stalls and stutters. Check engine light appears. Can clear code but the problem always comes back. Happens about once a month, sometimes days in a row.
My 2015 Altima is experiencing a sporadic delay when accelerating from a stop. It won't rev or do anything for a couple of seconds no matter how far down the pedal is. Then all of a sudden it'll go. There is no check engine light on. I took it to pep boys store to see what the problem was. The tech staff experience the same issue I was when he drove my car. He place the diagnostic tool into my car and came up with a code that stated something was wrong with my transmission(p0776 code). Because the store don not deal with transmission, I took it to a Nissan dealership and told them the issue. After running test they did not find any issue with transmission or no code when they inserted the diagnostic tool into my car. They stated they is must have been clear. What I dont understand is how it's clear when no one have done any work on the car. I believe it only happens when the car has been driven and the engine is hot. . I explain this to them too.
Takata recall. When driving the vehicle approximately 65 mph on the freeway, the vehicle slowed down significantly to about 30 mph and I could not accelerate. Soon after the check engine light came on. I took my car to autozone and did a system check, I received the error code p2101 detecting the throttle actuator control to be an issue. The next day, when my car was in park my rpms were up to 2,000. When beginning to drive, I would release the brake and without hitting the gas I would go upwards of 25 mph. The amount of time that I drive the vehicle does not matter and there is no in between, the car is either rearing to go or wants to come to a complete stop.
I got my Nissan in December 2015 I had it almost 2 years now the check engine light came on and the deal said the car is out of warranty . . . Should my car have engine problems at 2 years old?.
I purchased my 2015 Nissan Altima brand new from the dealer. In sept 2015 at 25,000 miles, while driving in the middle of the freeway, the car slow down as if I was driving in a low gear. The rpm went up, but the car is moving very slow. I stop the car and called the service department. They told me to stop and park the car then restarted the car after giving it serval mins of cooling down. I took the car the service the next day, they couldn't find anything wrong with the car. I continue to drive the car for another six or so months then the same happened again. I took the car back to the service department, no problem was found again. Couple months later, the car stop in the middle of the road. I took the car in, still no problem ws found. They said they can't mimic the problem and asked that I contiue to drive and stop and park if the problem arise. I told the supervisor/manager at the service department that I don't feel safe driving my family around in a car that stop in the middle of the road but can't find anything wrong. I don't know much about the car, but it has to do with transimition because of the check engine light. I felt that the service department is prolonging the real problem because the car is still under the warranity, and I felt that the problem will be discover once it's out of the warrnity coverage. I have two major concerns: 1. I am worry for the safety of my family when I am driving them around the car that can stop anytime in the middle of the road and cause the accident. 2. I am worry, I'll be making a payment for a car that I can't drive once it is no longer be cover under the warranity and it will costs thousand of dollars to get it fix.
