Description of the problem	January the 8th i was driving from work to home my job is about 30 miles from my home. I was driving no faster than 50-45 miles an hour due to construction in the areas on my way home. There are cameras at the lights in a city 7 miles before my city. If you go over the line a bit they take pictures of your license plate and send you a picture and ticket in the mail with an image of you going over the line indicating you've run a red light. So i pressed on the breaks to slow down as the light turned yellow to assure i did not go over the line. As i slowed down my car jerked i had a 2011 altima that did the same thing so i was thinking its nothing its how the transmission runs. But within a 12-15 feet distance i stopped as i completely came to a stop my car jerked forward, the brakes locked up, hazard lights on the dash showed up, and the engine shut off. I could not get my car to drive forward it was embarrassing as cars honked for me to drive. I returned my car to nissan and they updated some recalls. Then stated their system is not showing in issues. This has occurred multiple times and once i was on a hill the car was in drive and it started rolling backwards. I hope the recalls they have fixed resolves the issue i am scared that the car will die and cut off while i am on a busy highway. I hope and pray my issues are resolved and, i do not get crushed in a collision.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
