Driving on a very busy highway at speeds of 60 MPH with gauge reading half tank of fuel. Car suddenly started loosing ability to accelerate. I pulled over as quickly and safely and shut off car. Car would no longer start. My children were panicking as this is our main source of transportation and we could barely get off the road since we had zero notice or warning of anything happening and according to the gauge, I had plenty of fuel. We had to be towed home after waiting for 3 hours for a tow truck. After many searches of what could be, I saw faulty gas gauges are a common issue. So I added a couple gallons of gas and my car fired right up.

My nissan armada only has 67k miles on it like brand new it all of a sudden just lost all power I drove it the night before no issues then the next morning there were 3 lights on which were the vdc, slip, and the check engine light. Also, the trunk on the vehicle doesnt unlock when you hit the button neither does the glass lift door I have to climb in thru the vehicle get inside the trunk and take cover off of the emergency release and hold down lever while someone from the outside opens the door for me while im inside holding the lever down. The loss of power is the main issue here what if I was on the interstate or something and that happened.

Nissan armada air filter housing recall... Over the pass couple of years, I've notice that our truck would shut off while driving. We'd start it back up, and continue driving and it would shut off again. After checking the air filter under the hood, I discovered that it was dirty. So, I replaced the filter and it would be good. However, after several weeks of driving it will repeat the same thing of just shutting off while driving. Recently, it has been shutting down more often. So, after some looking underneath the hood, I went back to the air filter housing box and discovered that the air filter housing box does not seal properly. As a result of the air filter housing not sealing properly, air seeps in throwing off the air to gas ratio mixture and it shuts down the engine, turning off the car in the midst of driving. I reported this too a nissan dealership and they supposedly cleaned the air filter box and said that should fix it. However, after leaving the dealership, my truck literally shut off on me while driving five (5) times. I then went back under the hood of the truck, readjusted the air filter housing in an attempt to seal it to the best of my ability and my truck did not shut down at all. This is definitely an issue that I believe needs to be looked at. I've talked to other nissan owners they have reported the same thing. I sincerely hope that something can be done about this real soon in the picture that I have attached to this file, you can see the orange piece from the filter that is sticking out from the housing. Again, through driving and hitting bumps in the road, the housing separates and allow more air to seep into housing and the truck shuts off. Again, once the housing is fixed in place again, the truck is drivable until the housing separates again.

My fuel gauge showed 1/4 tank of gas and I ran out of fuel on a major highway and stalled out. I was in fear for my families life and had my wife steer the car while I pushed it over to the shoulder. A passer bye in a pick up had a can of gas and it was enough to get me to a gas station. There is a recall on the 2005 armada for the fuel sending sensor but not on the 2004. This is apparently a lot of 2004 armadas that have this safety malfunction.

While driving and reaching either a stop light or stop sign or coming to a stop when applying the brakes the pedal depresses to the floor and the brakes grind it will continue to do that until you turn the car off and turn it back on. It has occured since the purchase of the vehicle oct 2014.
