Hi - I need some help with an issue on my 2013 Altima 2.5 SV with 93k miles. A few weeks ago, the car seemed to have intermittent issues with accelerating at low speeds but radio/nav screen would turn off and back on. This lasted a few times then completely went away. About 2 weeks later, I drove the vehicle about 40 miles (interstate) and parked all day then got back on and it wouldn’t start. Had it jumped and it fired right up. I noticed the lights dim a lot when turning the wheel lock to lock when park and can seems to be easy and the very hard to turn (like power steering is cutting in and out). I turned it off after this and now no power to anything, can’t even lock the doors. I let the car sit for a while (1+ hr) then interior light will come back up but will not crank, immediately just blacks out or does nothing, just some relay clicking sounds.
Any help is appreciated!
