Description of the problem	As i was driving my 2013 nissan altima with 35k miles on it, i came to a stoplight at a busy intersection and my car cut off completely without any indication that something was wrong. I was not able to put my foot on the brakes, i could not move my steering wheel, it just cut off. I was able to cut my car back on, however whenever i shifted my gear into drive it cut off again. I had my car towed to the nissan dealership, and they stated they could not find the issue but reprogrammed my cvt since there was a recall issued for my car. They determined that after driving it for 25 minutes that day and 25 minutes the next that the cvt reprogramming could have been the solution to the problem but to return it to the dealer if it happened again. 3 days later my car began shaking and stalling very roughly while in motion and again cut off in the middle of the road while in drive. This time my young son was in the car with me, and him and i could have both been harmed or caused an accident and harmed someone else. This is unacceptable that nissan has not recalled these vehicles or the car has been returned to customers without a solution to the problem.
