Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving slowly in perfect weather conditions in heavy traffic. i was far back from the car in front of me i then realized that the car in front of me had no taillights and was stopped , i stepped on the brakes and my brakes shimmied kind of like i was hydroplaining on water and then i hit the vehicle in front of me. the vehicle ran even though i hit them. this caused over 7,000 dollars worth of damage to my car and whiplash to me. also a police officer saw the accident and he even said he saw how far away i was and did not understand why i did not stop. i am a parallel and i have already found that this is a safety issue nissan needs to be responsible for and if they are not i will take them to court. thank you for looking in to this. my husband is also a us marine serving in iraq and we bought this vehicle because he wanted me to be safe therefore i hope nissan will take responsibility and fix these cars. *nm
