MY 99 NISSAN ALTIMA GXE IS STALLING WHEN STOPPING FOR RED LIGHTS AND STOP SIGNS. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN CONSISTENTLY AND I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. I AM SCARED THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AND THAT SOMEONE MAY HIT ME FROM BEHIND. I HAVE HAD IT AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP 3 DAYS THIS WEEK AND STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. *TR

MY ALTIMA IDLES VERY ROUGH, WHICH FEELS AS IF IT WERE ABOUT TO STALL. IT SHAKES THE WHOLE CAR AND IS SLOW AND SHAKING DURING ACCELERATION. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS A MISFIRE IN CYL #4. ON THE INTERNET, EVERYONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET. I READ THIS WAS A DESIGN FLAW BY NISSAN AND THAT THEY ACKNOWLEDGED IT, BUT REFUSE TO FIX IT. I NOW HAVE TO PAY A REPAIR SHOP TO FIX NISSAN'S PROBLEM. *TR

EXHAUST FUMES COME IN THROUGH CAR DURING ALL SETTINGS OF HEAT, RECYLCLED AIR, DEFROSTER. SMELLS LIKE ROTTEN EGGS, SEWAGE, EXHAUST, GAS. HAVE BEEN TO DEALER TWICE AND TALKED TO NISSAN AND BBB AUTO LINE WITHOUT SATISFACTORY RESOLUTION. I HAVE USED A HIGHER OCTANE GAS AS THE DEALER RECOMMENDED AND IT DOESN'T HELP. SERVICE MANAGER SAID NISSAN KNOWS THERE'S A PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. NISSAN DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM. *AK
