2010 NISSAN TITAN PRO-4X UNCONTROLLABLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT, RESULTING IN A COLLISION. I WAS DRIVING DOWN AN AISLE IN A PARKING LOT AND BEGAN TO APPLY THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN AND TURN LEFT INTO A PARKING STALL. JUST AS MY VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO COME TO A STOP AND PARK, THE ENGINE REVVED (IT FELT/SOUNDED LIKE FULL THROTTLE), THE TIRES SQUEALED AND LAUNCHED THE VEHICLE FORWARD RESULTING IN A COLLISION WITH A VEHICLE PARKED IN THE OPPOSITE STALL. BECAUSE MY FOOT WAS ALREADY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL I MANAGED TO QUICKLY DEPRESS IT ALL THE WAY AND AT LEAST REDUCE THE SEVERITY OF THE IMPACT. TO DATE, THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY OCCURRENCE OF A PROBLEM ASSOCIATED WITH VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL/ACCELERATOR.

WHEEL BEARINGS AND BRAKE FAILURE. CAR MAKES GRINDING NOISE AND ALL LIGHTS (ABS, VDC) COMES ON AND THE CAR DOES NOT BRAKE.

I RECENTLY HAD AIR BAG LIGHT START FLASHING. I TOOK IN TO NISSAN DEALER TO GET CHECKED AND THEY SAID THE "SPIRAL CABLE" WAS BAD, THIS IS ALSO KNOWN AS CLOCK SPRING. NISSAN RESET AND SAID BRING BACK IF OCCURS AGAIN. IT DID AND I TOOK TO ANOTHER SHOP FOR SECOND OPINION AND SAME RESULT. I AGREED TO GET PART TO FIX THE TRUCK. AFTER BEING TOLD PART WAS ON BACK ORDER NO ETA ON DELIVERY OF PARTS FROM NISSAN. AFTER 4 WEEKS I CHECKED AND FOUND OUT THE SAME DEALER HAS 6 OTHER "SPIRAL CABLES" ON BACK ORDER. AS I STAND NOW, ACCORDING TO NISSAN MY TRUCKS DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF NEEDED, AND NO ETA ON PARTS.
