| When i bought the car there was a piece of tape over the airbag light and auto zone helped me take it off. the nissan died getting off the interstate and i lost all control of the steering and brakes. later to find that i needed a oxygen sensor and now electrial problems with the airbag light being on. i took the car to the dealership and they said i needed evac hoses but all the dealer did was unhook one so they could charge me for codes because they could not find my problem with no engine light present. so my machanic found the unhooked hose and put it back on and it was previously not unhoooked. the car dies randomly in traffic and is very hazardous to be rear ended or even to hit some one else with the dealer not even knowing how to properly resolve this issue???? my machanic will be helping me to make this car safer for me to drive. | |||
