“The AC ok my car keeps going out. This year it was so bad that if I had accidentally turned it on while I was driving that the car would completely stop and I could be dangerously hurt while driving. The steering wheel would lock up also. I have contacted Nissan numerous times and they wouldn't even let me talk to anyone that could possibly help. The vehicle initially turned off when I was making a uturn after leaving work so I parked it so I wouldn't be stranded or black traffic.”
