AIR DUCT ISSUE SAME AS DESCRIBED IN THE 2007 NISSAN MURANO RECALL. THIS IS CAUSING MY ENGINE TO STALL.

THE ISSUE IS WHEN THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ARE ENGAGED. AFTER THEY ARE ENGAGED THE BREAK PRESSURE IMMEDIATELY GOES SOFT AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BREAKS. I HAVE REPORTED THIS FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS AND THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THAT THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE THE EFFECT AND THAT THEY ARE FINE. IT ONLY SEEMS TO HAPPEN IN THE WINTER MONTHS WHEN ITS COLD. I HAVE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN AND RESTART AGAIN. IT SEEMS TO RESET THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM. IVE NOTICED THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON AND WANTED TO REPORT WHAT I HAVE FOUND AS WELL. THE LATEST HAPPENED WHEN I WAS SLOWING DOWN AT A STOP SIGN AND HIT AN ICY PATCH WHICH THEN THE ANTILOCK BRAKE RUMBLED ENGAGING IT. AFTER I FINALLY STOPPED HALF WAY INTO THE INTERSECTION THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKE PRESSURE WHAT SO EVER....I GUIDED THE CAR TO THE SIDE AND SAT FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED THE CAR BEFORE BRAKES CAME BACK.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A RURAL ROUTE, AT 9:10PM, THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATING WITHOUT MY FOOT. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BREAK PEDAL. I STEPPED VERY HARD AND STARTED SLOWING DOWN. WHEN I LOOSEN THE PEDAL, THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATING. ALL THE SUDDEN I HEARD POPPING SOUND AND STARTED SLOWING DOWN. I THINK THAT WAS THE SOUND OF THE GAS PEDAL RELEASED. AT 9:15PM, THE GAS PEDAL WAS STUCK AGAIN. THE ACCELERATION WAS FULL AND REACHED TO THE 80 MILES VERY QUICKLY. I STEPPED THE BREAK PEDAL SLOWLY BUT VERY HARD THEN STARTED SLOWING DOWN. I TRIED TO PULL MY CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BUT COULD NOT STOP. SO, I PUT THE GEAR INTO "N". I HARD THE GAS WAS STILL GOING. AS I STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL ONE MORE TIME, THE PEDAL WAS RELEASED, SO I COULD STOP. AS THE AREA DO NOT HAVE GOOD PHONE CONNECTIONS ANY WAY, I DROVE THE CAR AGAIN, SLOWLY, TO THE DEALER AND LEFT THE CAR THERE. IT WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. IF THE DRIVER WAS MY WIFE, SHE PROBABLY HAD AN ACCIDENT. IF THE ROAD WAS ICY, IF DEER CAME OUT, IF THAT WAS IN CITY AREA OR IN OUR DRIVE WAY, I HAD VERY BAD ACCIDENT. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST. TIRE PRESSURE RAMP IT ALWAYS ON, BUT EVERYTHING ELSE WAS GREAT UNTIL THIS. I WOULD NEVER WANT TO DRIVE THE SAME CAR EVEN AFTER A REPAIR. IT WAS AWFUL AND CAN NOT TRUST ANYMORE.

I WAS DRIVING ON M52 AND WAS GOING TO ATTEMPT TO PASS A SLOW MOVING VEHICLE. I STABBED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO PASS AND IT STUCK IN THIS POSITION. I CANCELLED MY ATTEMPT TO PASS DUE TO TRAFFIC AND HAD TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO KEEP CONTROL BUT I HAD TO PUMP THE ACCELERATOR SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO RELEASE. THIS IS ACTUALLY THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST I WAS STUCK IN MY YARD IN THE SNOW. I WAS TRYING TO GET UNSTUCK AND ONE OF THE TIMES WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET THE VEHICLE TO MOVE THE ACCELERATOR STUCK AND I HAD TO REPEATEDLY STAB THE ACCELERATOR TO GET IT FREE. THIS WAS AROUND MID JANUARY OF 2015. *TR
