NHTSA Complaint #10326640 — 2004 NISSAN ARMADA

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH IN THE NIGHT TIME, SUDDENLY DASH BOARD LIGHTS FLASHES VERY RAPIDLY AND STALLS THE ENGINE. LUCKILY, NO OTHER CAR WAS NEXT TO US. WE SAFELY STOPPED THE OUR 2004 NISSAN ARMADA SUV ON THE SIDE OF ROAD. AFTER ABOUT 10~15 MINUTES, WE TRIED TO RE-START THE CAR, BUT NO LUCK. AFTER GIVING GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES, WE COULD RE-START THE CAR. WE DROVE HOME (ABOUT 5 MILES IN DISTANCE) SAFELY. NEXT DAY, WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO HER PARENTS' HOUSE, ONCE AGAIN, WITH RAPID FLASHING ON THE DASH BOARD, THE ENGINE DIES WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING. WE TOOK TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP NEXT MORNING, THEY SAID IT WOULD BEEN NO GAS IN THE GAS TANK. WE HAD MORE THAN 1/4 TANKFUL OF GAS. WHILE THE SERVICE MAN WAS DRIVING INTO THE SERVICE BAY, THE CAR STALLS IN SAME MANNER. THEN, THEY SAID IT WAS THE ELECTRICAL PART PROBLEM IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE. BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUE, WE HAVE LET NISSAN DEALER REPLACED THE ELECTRICAL PART. LETS' SEE WHETHER IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR
