Consumer Description

AFTER GETTING GAS I STARTED MY 2005 NISSAN FRONTIER AND AS I ENTERED BACK ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY STALLED. THE "SERVICE ENGINE" LIGHT AND THE 4WD WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER ROLLING ABOUT 50 FT IT STARTED RUNNING NORMALLY AGAIN. I VISITED MY NISSAN DEALER ON 9/10/09 AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THAT AFTERNOON AFTER GETTING GAS IT STALLED AFTER STARTING IT AGAIN WITH THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS ON. I COULD NOT RESTART IT. THIS TIME IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. THEY FOUND THAT AN ENGINE ELECTRONIC MODULE HAD FAILED BUT WAS ON NATIONWIDE BACK-ORDER AND DID NOT KNOW WHEN IT WOULD BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A LARGE PROBLEM IN 2006, 2007 AND SOME IN 2008 NISSAN FRONTIER AND TITAN TRUCKS. IF THIS ITEM IS IN NATIONWIDE BACK-ORDER IT MUST BE A MAJOR PROBLEM AND A DANGEROUS ONE IF A VEHICLE'S ENGINE STALLS WHILE IN OPERATION ON ROADS AND HIGHWAYS. *TR
