- 2002 Nissan Altima Heater - I bought my 2002 Nissan 3 years ago and I have had it, I am tired of freezing in the winter, no heat unless going at least 25 mph. Does not heat at all when idle. Such a waste of money! WHY NO RECALL???????
A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
In Winter of 2007, the heat only worked when I was above a certain speed. It worked on the freeway, but not driving through town. This year, It wont work at all. I haven't taken it in because of fear that it is going to cost a fortune but I just can't go all winter without heat! Any info anyone has would be much appreciated.
