Problems with 2003 Nissan Murano VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Dt: when driving 2 hours or more on highway and when entering in stop and go traffic , engine does not respond to the gas pedal for 3-5 seconds and then it darts forward. this happened 20 or more times in one occurrence. took vehicle to dealer a second time, and they could not duplicate the problem . dealer said nothing was wrong.*ak

Initially,this car would stop in the middle of intersection and on the highway due to a faulty alternator. i almost got in an accident . the car would loss power and then take off and finally the car would stop on a busy highway. i almost got killed 3 times due the car stalling out on me. the transmission died on me 3 times. the first two times, i had only 20-30,000 miles. ( i purchased the car brand new). the very last time they replaced the transmission (costing me $6, 000) i had about 160,000 miles. even after having nissan replace the transmission 3 times, the car still stalls or shuts off while in motion. about a year ago, i had new cat converters installed, a new manifold and exhaust installed. it ran for about 6 months and now it is still stalling out and stopping (while in motion) me. this is very dangerous. now nissan thinks the crank shaft positioning is the cause of the problem but refuse to do it for free because the vin# to my car is not listed with the rest of the 2003 murano's (recall list). this i think is ridiculous. it seems to me that nissan has alot problems with their older murano's with regards to stalling, stopping suddenly while in motion. they seem to care less if the owners life is at risk. i have been dealing with these issues, since i first purchased the car. it is a piece of junk and it is an extreme hazard to drive on the highway. *tr
