WHILE DRIVING AT AROUND 40MPH, MY 2005 NISSAN 350Z (41XXX MILES) SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. NO POWER, BRAKES, STEERING, ANYTHING. I GLIDED TO A STOP AND PULLED OVER AS BEST AS I COULD. EVERY INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON: CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE SOON, TIRE PRESSURE, ETC. I WAS ON A FLAT, BUSY CITY STREET GOING STRAIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. PRIOR TO THIS, I HAD NO INDICATION OF A POTENTIAL PROBLEM. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ETC. I CALLED AAA AND AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES, DECIDED TO SEE IF IT WOULD START SO I COULD MOVE TO A SAFER PLACE. IT STARTED RIGHT UP. I'VE SINCE BEEN ABLE TO START AND DRIVE BUT THIS WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY, IT COULD HAVE BEEN A CATASTROPHE FOR ME AN
AT 45,000 MILES THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. DEALERS WANTS AN ARM, A LEG, AND HALF OF THE OTHER LEG TO FIX. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL YET. DEALER SAYS THEY CAN START REPLACING PARTS BUT THAT MAY NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. VERBAL ESTIMATE COULD BE AROUND $3,200 TO START! CARE IS PRISTINE, GARAGE KEPT, NEVER SEEN RAIN OR SNOW. HELP! PLEASE MAKE NISSAN FIX THIS KNOW ISSUE.
AIR BAG LIGHTS HAVE BEEN FLASHING FOR 3 YEARS WHETHER PARKED OR IN MOTION, DEALERSHIP SAYS $1500 TO DIAGNOSE BUT BELIEVES BAGS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING AND ADVISES TO "DRIVE SAFELY" IF I DECIDE NOT TO REPAIR. NOT ON RECALL LIST WHICH IS UNREAL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUES AS BAGS WILL NOT GO OFF IF IN A COLLISION ACCORDING TO DEALERSHIP.
CLUTCH STICKING TO FLOOR HAVE TO PLACE FOOT UNDER CLUTCH TO POP BACK IN PLACE SO I CAN CONTINUE TO USE CLUTCH. ALSO, SLIP LIGHT COMES ON SINCE NISSAN OF BOWIE, MD ROTATED MY TIRES, IN THE 13 YRS I HAVE OWNED NO MECHANIC HAS EVER DONE AND I QUESTION IT AT NISSAN OF BOWIE, MD.
