2002 Nissan Altima LX review from North America
"Needs help"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ignition problems, sporadic starting.
General comments?
For the most part, it's been a reliable vehicle, with the exception of now it won't start out of the blue. We drove our car to a local pharmacy, and it died, literally, in the parking lot. After two attempts to have it "double jumped" by the towing service, it would start, but wouldn't stay running. I intitially thought it was the alternator, but after reading this blog will have the cam sensor checked out.

  | At this point very concerned!!! |
| I feel it is a lemon; it should not have had such major problems just after the warranty expired |
