“My wife was driving a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder on 12/24/08. Road condition was wet with some slush. The traction light (slip) and low tire indicators were on as this was an on going problem with flagpole Nissan in oneonta ny and they were aware of this. All of a sudden there was a slight sudden acceleration of the vehicle with a complete loss of brakes. The vehicle fishtailed then eventually rolled over two times. She was driving at approx 45 MPH. …”
