NHTSA complaint #11079063, filed 2018-03, 90,000 miles

“2004 Nissan Quest le has had the vdc off warning light come on periodically while driving for the past 2 months, with increasing frequency. Vdc is the vehicle dynamic control system designed to assist driver with control and stability of vehicle during slips or swerves while driving. Dealer had difficulty diagnosing the problem but a recent visit on 7/28/08 presented me with an expensive replacement of the ABS actuator. Dealer surmised that when I said we were being followed in traffic last week and were told we had no brake lights, that was a result of the vdc off indicator light coming on. …”

“While driving the slip and tcs warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel as the car suddenly shuts off. It recurred several times. The vehicle was diagnosed by autozone and reads error code p0340. As a result the camshaft sensor was replaced but the problem still exists.”
