Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Titan, 2020-2022 Frontier, and 2023 Z vehicles. The transmission parking pawl may not engage when the vehicle is shifted into park, which can result in a vehicle rollaway.

While driving on a two lane state route road towing a RV at approximately 60 MPH, the first indication of an issue was an amber ABS warning light accompanied by an Amber traction control light. Shortly after a red BRAKE warning light illuminated. Shortly after that an amber 4WD drive light illuminated and the 4WD drive wheel indicator went blank. Shortly after that the vehicle lost power and the engine stopped and would not restart. The whole sequence took about 30 seconds. The vehicle and trailer were barely off the road as the engine stopped suddenly and did not give me time to get all of the way over to the small two lane shoulder. This left me in a very unsafe position as vehicles were trying to pass me. Luckily a Sheriff was driving by and immediately called a tow truck. It was towed to a Nissan dealer where they found that an exhaust leak from a failed muffler melted a wiring harness. This is apparently a common issue.

My 2021 Ford Explorer appeared to maintain or resume speed without cruise control being activated. Braking and switching cruise off did not reliably stop the behavior, and speed varied by as much as 15 mph without my input. My concerns are: * apparent speed control when cruise had never been activated; * continued propulsion after braking; * apparent cruise operation after its dashboard indicator went out; * inconsistent response from the SET/accelerate control; * fluctuations approaching 15 mph I drove the Explorer on 9/18/26 on the interstate for a few hours and cruise control was bananas. The vehicle was clearly using cruise control, even though I had not turned it on. Even after I would break, it would want to resume a speed. It had a headset its own. When I would turn on cruise control, and see the light on the dashboard indicating that it was on, I could set it at a speed, but it would not necessarily stay at that speed. Sometimes it would slow down and start coasting or sometimes just adjust the speed downward by only 4 mph. When going downhill, it would definitely accelerate. Using the set/acceleration button would sometimes work for acceleration and other times not. When I would turn the cruise control off and see the light on the dashboard had gone off it would continue to operate cruise control. I could see as much as a 15 mph fluctuation in my speed without touching brake, accelerator or button. Regarding your listed questions, the vehicle has not been inspected by anyone since the incident, there were no warnings or messages. i did not feel unsafe in the vehicle at the time. I’m hoping my husband will drive it today to see if the problem occurs again.

When someone is sitting in passenger seat the light for their airbag blinks, is on or off. So we are unsure if the airbag would in fact deploy if we were to be in a collision.
