Nissan: 2002 Altima-trouble starting?

I'm not even sure if this qualifies as having trouble starting, but I have
a 2002 Altima with 28,000 miles on it and it has "a little" trouble
starting if I don't start it for a few days. It starts, but the engine
doesn't turn over immediately. I was out of the country for a few weeks,
and I had to have a friend start the car every 3 days. He said that he also
had trouble starting the car.

How long should a relatively new car be able to go between starts? I
mentioned this to my dealer when I had the car in for recall work, and I
got a condescending "We sell thousands of these cars. If there's a problem,
Nissan will let you know."

Should I bring the car in to a more responsive dealer, like the one I
bought it from? I don't need alternator problems, and the warranty is
almost up, at 36,000 miles.

Thanks.

That was the recall work I referred to. The dealer had my car for an entire
day, wouldn't give me a loaner car even though I brought my car in at 7 am
and they didn't have it ready at 5:30. Luckily I live in a city, and I can
just take a bus home.
