Your vehicle caught fire while parked, with smoke visible through the windows and damage to the headliner and seats. The fire extinguished itself when you opened the windows, and you were able to drive the vehicle home without any warning lights appearing. The cause was not diagnosed, and Nissan declined to assist because your vehicle was out of warranty.

Your truck has been losing power and failing to start consistently since last year, even after you replaced the battery and had five mechanics inspect it without finding the root cause. The problem escalated when your truck shut off while driving in a tunnel with your children inside, creating a dangerous situation. Diagnosing and fixing the underlying electrical or engine issue will likely require specialized diagnostic testing and may involve replacing components like the alternator, starter, or electrical control modules.

You purchased a used 2012 Nissan Pathfinder and were not informed of structural damage and left front damage to the vehicle. The dealership did not provide you with a Carfax report or buyer's guide before purchase, and later presented documents with your signatures dated before your actual purchase date, which you believe were falsified. You feel misled about the vehicle's condition and history.
