Car: 2009 Nissan Altima 2.5S Coupe

Post

I have a 2009 Altima coupe 2.5s and I was recetly on my way to work and I stopped at a light and my car was still running but when I hit the gas it did nothing the engine didn't rev the rpms didn't move. I even turned it off and it started up with no problem so let go of the brake and let it coast on its own and then it kicked in out of nowhere. But no it's not responding at all I had to get it towed home. Any ideas? Anything would help!

How many miles do you have on your car when that happened? Have you changed the CVT fluid? Could be a transmission problem. Or an engine problem. Hard to diagnose on here but it sounds serious. I recommend having it checked at the dealership, that's your best bet. Goodluck
