Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While driving at approximately 30 miles per hour, my 2004 pathfinder started accelerating. the brakes were not responding and the steering wheel was out of control. the car suddenly turned to the left on a 2-way street. after about 20 seconds or so, the vehicle started slowing down on its own and the brakes and steering started responding again. had the car towed to the dealer. a few days of dealer checking, diagnostics and testing still have not shown the cause of the problem. an email to nissan usa was sent and i am still waiting for a response. i am now afraid to drive the car since the dealers service cannot find what's wrong with it and the problem may just re-occur at any time. *jb
