What owners wrote

The accident that I was involved in was in july 2000. It was only me and the vehicle involved. The vehicle went out of control and into reverse. I never regained control then rolled down a hill off the highway.. The vehicle was ruled a total loss. My injuries were minimal. I was greatful for that . I just feel the vehicle was responsible and there was something that went wrong. I have contacted nissan with no luck . I even received a recall on the vehicle . And still nissan has given me no answers .

CrashInjury

Dt*: the contact stated the vehicle will not shift out of park. The vehicle has not been seen by a mechanic, but there is a NHTSA recall, # 00v288000, regarding the automatic transmission. The vehicle has the same problems as indicated in the recall; however, it is not included in the recall due to the VIN.
