Ok jump starting didn't work. Any driveability issues you've experienced in the past even if intermittent. Try do this:
1. GOT GAS? is "check engine light" on? if on, scan computer for trouble codes before continuing diagnostics work. if not on, go to #2.
2. have someone step on brake pedal and someone go to the rear and see if brake lights are on. if they are on, then go to #3.
3. key to On and you should hear a buzzing sound, its normal your fuel pump powered on. wait at least 5 seconds before cranking. DO NOT STEP ON GAS PEDAL WHEN CRANKING. Before cranking, move shifter out of Park position and move to any gear and back to Park and make sure its fully engaged. When cranking Take Notice of security light in front of driver on the dash. If red light stays "Solid Red" instead of being Off when cranking, Stop cranking and tow your car to your nearest Nissan repair shop.

If all 3 above check out and depending on your time, and experience doing car repair you may need professional help. You can take it to your favorite repair shop or your Nissan repair shop.
