I WAS DRIVING MY 2013 NISSAN QUEST, WHEN WITHOUT ANY WARNING IT STOP ACCELERATING, IT WOULD NIT GO FORWARD OR BACKWARDS. I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WITH A CAR FULL OF MY FAMILY THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I NOTICED THAT WHEN THE A/C IS ON THE CAR WILL MOVE FORWARD OR BACKWARDS. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND WHEN MOVING AND YOU TURN RIGHT OR LEFT THE VAN STOPS ACCELERATING WITH OUT ANYWARNING NO CHECK ENGINE NOTHING . THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE A HOLE FAMILY LOSSES THERE LIFE DUE TO FAULTY WARNING AND THE TRANSMISSION NOT WORKING LIKE IT SHOULD, IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH A LOT OF THE SAME MODEL VANS. *TR
