2000 Nissan Quest Body and structure Problems

“I start driving very slow out of parking space when the car accelerate by itself, reaching high speed within seconds, the brakes did not work at all,foot pedal or emergency brake. It seems that the accelerator pedal was stuck. My foot was not in the accelerator but car continue increasing speed. I have no choice to collide against another parked car and hitting a wall where finally the car stop. Even when the car got to stop against the wall, the engine continue running accelerated until I finally shut off the engine.”

“An f-350 ran a stoplight at 50 MPH and impacted the front driver side of van at the tire. The van turned upon impact and received the balance of the impact head on with concentration to the left quadrant. Further spinning, the van then impacted the side of the offending vehicle. Complaint: the air bags did not deploy. She was wearing her seat belt. She sustained injuries to cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions of back. She was treated for 2.5 months and then released.

I was so outraged that they had the gall to lie to me! Basically the car's paint was marred and it wasn't even ten years after the car was bought, and they still did nothing. …”

“I have had to change my headlights repeatedly (going on 3rd time) and my tail light (1 time). In addition, I have problems with my accelerator pedal; it seems to stick, until I apply enough pressure then it takes off abruptly fast, had these same problems (with replacing head and tail lights and accelerator) when I had my 1993 Nissan Quest, but dismissed them.
