RECENTLY MY FAMILY WAS REAR-ENDED WHILE SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT AT A FOUR-WAY INTERSECTION ON A STATE ROUTE BY A DRUNK DRIVER TRAVELING MORE THAN TWICE THE SPEED LIMIT (40 MPH). FOLLOWING THE COLLISION, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS HAD BEEN DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, NEITHER THE DRIVER NOR PASSENGER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IN THE CRASH CAUSING INCREASED INJURY TO THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER OF THE CAR. THERE WERE NO OCCUPANTS IN THE BACK SEAT AND ALL OCCUPANTS WERE WEARING SAFETY RESTRAINT BELTS CORRECTLY.*DT *TR

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CODE IS MASS AIRFLOW. I HAVE REPLACED IT 5 TIMES AS WELL AS HAD THE WORK DONE SUGGESTED BY NISSAN FOR THE TBS THAT HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR IT. IT STALLS WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. WHICH ALMOST RESULTED IN AM ACCIDENT. THE ONLY CODE THAT COMES UP ON THE SCAN IS FOR THE MASS AIRFLOW. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BRING IT TO A DEALERSHIP. I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED AND RECHECKED AND FIXED AND THE ISSUE IS NOT GOING AWAY. WITH IT NOW STALLING AS I DRIVE THIS IS NOW A SAFETY ISSUE. IT HAPPENED ON A ROUTE WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 50 MILES AN HOUR. AT THIS TIME I NOT ONLY REPLACED SENSOR AGAIN BUT ALSO HAD A MECHANIC CLEAN THE THROTTLE BODY AND DO THE OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS. THE LIGHT CLEARED AND 2 WEEKS LATER SAME ISSUE HAPPENED.

CAR ENGINE IS NOT ACCELERATING AND TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE STUCK IN A CERTAIN GEAR. TOOK IT INTO NISSAN LAST YEAR AND THEY REPLACED THE VALVE BODY IN THE TRANSMISSION. NOW IT APPEARS IT'S HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM AGAIN. VERY SCARY AS I ALMOST GOT INTO A FEW ACCIDENTS. ALSO THE ENGINE IS HAVING THE SAME LOW IDLE ISSUES BUT NOTHING IS AS BAD AS THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES. VERY VERY VERY SCARY
