I purchased a used 2005 nissan armada on may 22, 2006 with a mileage of 34,399 miles. As you can see I haven't had it for a 2 full months yet, and already it has failed me. On my way home from work after working 16 hours. I stopped in a record shop to purchase some music cd's, it had only been about 15 minutes that the engine was shut off. When I proceeded back to my vehicle to start it back up, it wouldn't start.
