1 Engine Exhaust System problem

Failure Date: 03/01/2010

In March 2010 while in florida the engine in my 2007 hybrid altima developed a "knock" or "rap" when cold. I took the vehicle to the Nissan dealership in venice, FL and after keeping it overnight the dealer stated that the vehicle indeed has a problem that sounded like valves, but the dealership refused to work on hybrid vehicles. I contacted the selling dealer in maine and through the Nissan rep for ne found a dealer in ft myers florida who would look at the vehicle. After having the vehicle overnight the service manager said that they had examined the vehicle and talked with Nissan and believed the noise was a buildup of carbon on the exhaust valves. Nissan was aware of this problem and was coming up with a solution and we should continue to drive the vehicle. When we returned to maine in may the dealership in bangor maine said they could find no problem other than normal noise in the engine. They could find no Nissan record of similar problems. After contacting Nissan I was told to wait for the florida Nissan factory rep to contact me.
