THE ORIGIN AND CAUSE OF A VEHICLE FIRE INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED ON JANUARY 17, 2015, APPROXIMATELY TWO MILES EAST OF WIDENER JUNCTION ON HIGHWAY 70 NEAR MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE. IT STARTED BY A FIRE THAT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN CUBE WITH VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN) [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR UPDATED 9/15/15 *LN *CN

AFTER COMING TO A STOP (OR NEAR STOP) FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS, MY 2014 NISSAN CUBE DOES NOT RESPOND TO DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. I WOULD PRESS THE GAS TO THE FLOOR AND IT BARELY MOVED. IT WAS EXTREMELY SLOW, LIKE THE ENGINE WOULD NOT GO ABOVE IDLE. AFTER 5-20 SECONDS IT WOULD FINALLY ACCELERATE. A COUPLE OF TIMES I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON A LIMITED ACCESS RURAL HIGHWAY. THE LIGHT AHEAD HAD TURNED RED AND I DECELERATED TO AN ALMOST STOP BEFORE THE LIGHT CHANGED TO GREEN. OF COURSE, I IMMEDIATELY LET OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL AND PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. THE CAR DIDN'T RESPOND AND THE TRAFFIC FROM BEHIND WAS CLOSING AT NEAR HIGHWAY SPEED. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO SWERVE OFF OF THE ROAD ONTO THE SHOULDER AS THE OVERTAKING TRAFFIC BARRELLED PAST ME. ONE PARTICULARLY SCARY TIME I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE WITH GUARD RAIL ON THE LEFT AS WE WERE APPROACHING A BRIDGE; THE NO RESPONSE EVENT REPEATED ITSELF, BUT I WAS UNABLE TO EXIT THE ROADWAY TO THE LEFT. I KEPT THE PEDAL DOWN AND PRAYED NO ONE WOULD HIT ME. KARMA WAS WATCHING OVER ME AS THE CARS COMING FROM BEHIND REALIZED JUST IN TIME THAT I WAS BARELY MOVING AND SWERVED TO MISS ME. A COUPLE OF THE CARS NARROWLY MISSED HITTING ME; THERE WAS A LOT OF SQUEALING TIRES AND BLARING HORNS. LUCKILY FOR ME, I WAS WEARING DARK-COLORED UNDERWEAR'.. IT APPEARS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN AS THE CAR ACCUMULATES MILEAGE. I NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN, SO NOW I TRY TO BE IN THE RIGHT LANE FOR UPCOMING STOPS, BUT SOMETIMES YOU ARE CAUGHT OFF GUARD FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT CHANGE. THIS IS VERY SCARY. CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED.

VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE YET RPM'S WOULD RISE. *TR

SEATBELT ON THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WILL NOT AUTO-RETRACT AND HAS TO BE HAND FEED THEN TUGGED A BIT IN ORDER TO SECURE CAR SEAT. *TR

MY MOTHER WAS IN A ONE VEHICLE CRASH VS A TREE WHILE NEGOTIATING A CURVE. THE SEAT BELT TENSIONER DID NOT LOCK AND RESTRAIN MY MOTHER CAUSING HER TO SLIDE DOWN THE SHOULDER HARNESS CAUSING THE SEAT BELT TO CUT INTO HER CHEST CAVITY INTO HER LUNG. NISSAN WAS CONTACTED AND SENT AN ATTORNEY AND AN ENGINEER TO INVESTIGATE. *DT*JB

ABS light came on, I checked on the internet to see what the problem might be and came up with a number of reasons, the last being have it checked ASAP. Took the car to my repair shop to have it checked. Found code C1116 stop lamp circuit was the problem, which I had fixed.When I picked up the car, I was told that getting the part wasn't difficult because it was a common problem. They also told me that my brake lights wouldn't work because of the circuit problem. In my opinion, this is a safety concern; if your brake lights aren't working how can anyone behind you know your intention to slow down or stop . What's more, how am I to know that my rear brake lights are not working? I'm in the cabin driving and unless I am alerted by another driver behind me, what am I to do?
