| Description of the problem | Our nissan quest has been stalling out with less than between 1/2 and 1/4 tank of gas on a downhill. It is mostly happening while stopped at stoplights or stop signs, but can sputter, shake and act like it is not getting proper fuel supply on downslopes even while driving. The car has stalled out multiple times on busy streets, leaving me vulnerable to rear end collisions. We have 4 children in the car with us most days and we cannot have our car stopping in the middle of a 6 lane road. After it has happened multiple times, we looked up the issue on line and saw that indeed there is an issue with this model and year of car for the exact same problem, however, our vin # is not included in the recall. Nissan will not fix it now, yet it is still a serious and potentially life threatening issue. |
