Starting and Electrical Problems
Starting and Electrical Problems
So I have a 2013 Maxima (leased in April) and I took the car in for an oil change 2 weeks ago on the 27th of August. Since I've had the car back, I've experienced some weird electrical issues and the car won't start. When I try to start the car, everything electrical to include the headlights (even in the off position) turn on. I've also noticed that while driving, the passenger airbag light goes in and out and the brightness on the dash adjusts. The first two times, I unhooked the battery for a few seconds and was able to start the car. I took it to the dealership (yesterday) just to have them look at it and they said that they couldn't duplicate the issue. Later that day, THE SAME THING HAPPENED! This time, unhooking the battery didn't work and I had to get it towed after 30 minutes on the phone with the service tech trying different things. But two hours later at the dealership, they were able to start it and drive it off the tow truck. I don't know what is going on but there is an issue somewhere. I will point out that I do have aftermarket speakers but they were installed a week after getting the car in April and I did unhook them but it still didn't start. I just think it's weird that all this started happening after my first oil change. Sorry for the long post but any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
