The differential broke in the middle of the road away from my house but first in weight with the light of the tires I went to check it and nothing after the muffler till the last one broke the differential and now I do not know how to fix it.

Xterra 6-cyl

  • 100,000 miles
I have an 08 Nissan Xterra the vdc/slip/engine/tire pressure/ and air bag lights are on. The engine seems to be stalling at take off. The fuel indicator is no longer working and had made attempts to get this fixed and the dealership said it wasn't on my vehicle. I don't think the Nissan dealership is handling their responsibility to fix these vehicle. There is so much going wrong with my vehicle for it to be three years old. The engine stalling seems to be at low speeds and is potentially the most dangerous.
