WHILE DRIVING OVER 100 MILES FROM HOME AT 60MPH, ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE, BEHIND A TRACTOR TRAILER, I WAITED FOR NO TRAFFIC IN THE LEFT LANE SO THAT I COULD PASS. I PUT MY BLINKER ON, GOT INTO THE LEFT LANE, GOT NEXT TO THE TRACTOR TRAILER AND THE CAR WENT FROM 65 TO TEN MPH AND WOULD NOT GO ANY FASTER. OBVIOUSLY MY CAR DROPPED BACK AND I VERY SLOWLY GOT BACK BEHIND THE TRACTOR TRAILER AND OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE TRANSMISSION BLEW FROM OVERHEATING! I WAS ABLE TO GET A GARAGE TO LOOK AT IT AND DIAGNOSE IT AND IT WAS RECONFIRMED WHEN BRO…

DRIVE AT 30-35 MPH WHEN MY 2011 NISSAN JUKE STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. HAD TO PULL OVER AND IMMEDIATELY HAD TO HAVE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE TIMING BELT. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR NEARLY 3 WEEKS AND MY CAR STILL IS NOT FIXED EVEN WITH THE ENGINE BEING REPLACED IN MY CAR. MY CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN TRANSIT RD DEPEW NY 14043. I FELT MY TORQUE DROP AND THEN MY ENGINE SPUTTERED AND DIED. THE ROAD IS A TWO LANE ONE DIRECTION WITH NO SHOULDER. I BARLEY ABLE TO GET IT IN THE RIGHT LANE, WITH NO POWER STEERING, BEFORE IT ROLLED TO A STOP. I BELIEVE THE ONLY THING THAT SAVED ME FOR BEING HIT BY ANOTHER CAR WAS A POLICE OFFICER PUTTING HIS EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON. I TOOK IT TO A NISSAN DEALER FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAID THE TIMING BELT BROKE AND BENT THE PISTON IN THE ENGINE. PLEASE ACT ON THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED DUE …
