Just like all the others. Check engine light on/off at will for two years. Code 4 diagnosis. Coils switched to confirm Dx. Rough starts, rough idles, heater worked in warm, no heat in cold weather, coolant added twice but drained. Then came trouble starting. Yesterday no start on third time for the day. Today when I picked it up $69 towing charge and total bill of $215, Mechanic says engine light off, 3 spark plugs changed. Couldn't removed other plug because was fused to aluminum cylinder. Removal could have caused head gasket to blow. Mechanic warns problem not fixed. Told me "Some cars are just lemons, you should trade it in." During the past two years, Nissan has refused to fix under so-called 5 year, bumper to bumper warranty. What's needed here is a class action suit. Like others, despite no problem with two previous Altimas, I will never buy Nissan again, and will warn all my friends of same.
