2004 Nissan Quest Fuel system Problems

I entered 14 freeway by sierra hwy entrance, as soon as I got in the fwy and left the pedal gas to slow down to get into traffic my van lost power and the shut off complete, i was very fortunate that it happened at the entrance and the cars behind me were able to stop on time and nobody got hurt, also today as soon I exit the cvs store get in into traffic, 1 minute after the van lost power and got stuck in traffic, this is very scary for me and my kids, my mechanics are not able to find the problem, please help

THE AIR BAG LIGHT GLITCHES ON THE DASHBOARD, IT TURNS ON AND OFF. THE ONLY WINDOWS THAT OPEN ARE THE FRONT DOOR WINDOWS, THE BACK SIDE WINDOWS COULD BARELY CRACK OPEN && THE TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE VEHICLE "WITH THE WINDOWS OPEN" REACH DANGEROUSLY HIGH TEMPERATURES THAT LITERALLY ARE HARMFUL AND DANGEROUS. A FAMILY VEHICLE WITH NO ABILITY TO OPEN ANY WINDOW ON THE 2 SLIDING DOORS, CAN LEAD TO VERY HIGH TEMPERATURES EVEN THOUGH THE FRONT 2 WINDOWS OPEN IS STILL NOT ENOUGH FOR AIR TO REACH PASSENGERS WHO SIT IN THE MIDDLE-ROW ESPECIALLY PASSENGERS WHO SIT ON THE 3RD ROW SEAT IN THE BACK OF THE VAN. A RECALL MUST BE DONE TO ADJUST THE WINDOWS ON BOTH SLIDING DOORS ON EACH SIDE TO BE ABLE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS... THE TEMPERATURE TRAPPED INSIDE THE VEHICLE[PASSENGERS AND SEATS AREA] WITH ALL THE WINDOWS OPEN WAS OF 99, ON A REGULAR SUNNY DAY.... WE DROVE TO WHERE WE HAD TO GO AND NO TYPE OF AIR WOULD REACH THE BACK SEATS WHERE MY DAUGHTER WAS SITTING... SHE BEGAN TO HAVE PROBLEMS BREATHING AND WAS SWEATING SO MUCH.. I KEEP HER HYDRATED ESPECIALLY WHEN WE HAVE TO DRIVE FAR BECAUSE THE AC DOESNT WORK AND WE CANT ROLL ANY WINDOW IN THE BACK DOWN SIN E THEY DONT ROLL DOWN... WHEN ITURN ON THE AC THE SMELL OF GASOLINE BEGINS TO COME OUT THROUGH THE VENTS... MY CAR WASNT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALL U HAD BEFORE WHICH MY CAR NISSAN QUEST SV 2004 CLEARLY SHOULDVE BEEN INCLUDED FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL....

ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE FROM 0MPH, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF THEN TURN IT BACK ON THEN USUALLY IT WILL WORK. ALSO SOMETIMES IT WON'T START IT TURNS OVER STRONG BUT WILL NOT CRANK. I'LL WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES OR SO THEN ATTEMPTED AGAIN THEN IT WILL CRANK AND DRIVE NORMAL.

NISSAN QUEST CLUSTER LOSES ABILITY TO MONITER FUEL AND TEMPERATURE , WHICH CAUSED ME TO RUN OUT OF FUEL WHILE TRAVELLING AT A SPEED OF 55MPH. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE I SEE THERE IS A REPAIR BUT HOW DOES THE DEALER NOT SEE AN ISSUE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THE LCD SCREEN ESSENTIALLY PEEL AWAY FROM THE SCREEN DUE TO HEAT OR HUMIDITY . I SEE THIS AS A DANGER AND I FEEL IT PUTS MY FAMILY ALONG WITH OTHERS IN DANGER .
