| Three weeks ago, i purchased a new 2007 nissan versa. since making the purchase, i have had periodic problems with starting the vehicle. when i turn the key, the vehicle frequently cranks for 5+ seconds. sometimes the vehicle will then start, and sometimes it will just die. this does not happen every time that i start the vehicle, and i have not been able to detect any pattern to help indicate when this will happen. i have taken the vehicle back to the dealership twice for service so far, and they have not been able to solve or even identify the problem. i searched the internet and found various accounts of other versa owners detailing similar experiences. *tr | |||
