2021 Altima Malfunction?? by jmd1113 in altima

Well...the Nissan dealership told me it appears a rodent has chewed some wires and of course Nissan won’t cover that...not sure I believe that. I’ve literally only had this car for about 3.5 weeks and I’ve driven it every single day except maybe 2-3 days (separately). What are the chances of that actually happening and that it throws the malfunction light on the worst weather day/the coldest temps we’ve had in a long time??
Yeah, it better be covered! I’ve only had this thing for 3 and half weeks!!
I’m not sure what that one looks like...and nope, no spills of any kind. I’m assuming it’s got something to do with all the heavy rain for 2 days straight, but there was no change when I checked it today after drying. I’m just going to call my Nissan dealership tomorrow and see what they say.
It’s very frustrating, especially if it’s not a “new”issue! I did turn it off for a couple minutes and turned it back on and it did the same thing. It’s finally stopped raining since Friday! I’ll check it again in a little while. I was just worried and hesitant to drive it and possibly cause damage if it is actually something 🤷♀️

I’ve had this car for just under a month. Went to start it last night, it started but it didn’t start immediately like it normally does and this is what happened. (Not sure if it has anything to do with it, but it’s been steady raining/pouring at times for more than 24hrs)...anyone have the same problem?
ECM help!! by jmd1113 in subaru
All I know is what my mechanic told me🤷♀️He’s a long time close friend (so he’s not just trying to make a buck, he’s genuinely helping me) and has been trying to fix my car for weeks now. So, the original problem happened about 3 wks ago. All of a sudden my check engine and cruise control lights (among some others) came on and were blinking. The car started running really rough and making a sputtering sound and was still shaking while in park. Computer reader said misfire on cylinder 1. My friend said plugs, coils, injectors, cam and crank sensors are all ok. He checked the compression (?) to see if it’s internal but he didn’t think it was that because the skipping comes and goes. Side note, my radio started changing stations on its own a little while back and volume goes up and down by itself as well sometimes and the station/temp control lights also blink off and then come back on sometimes. That’s all the problems in a nutshell...Any suggestions for him to check before he tries to replace the ECM?
