THE VEHICLE WAS STALLING MULTIPLE TIMES ON THE FREEWAY ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING (9/25/19) AND THERE IS A SUDDEN THUMP ON THE ENGINE AS IT WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND WOULD STALL AGAIN AFTER A FEW YARDS. SO I DECIDED TO PULLOVER SAFELY AND STARTED THE VEHICLE AGAIN UNTIL I REACHED MY DESTINATION BUT WITH EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH OR BEING HIT FROM BEHIND, WITH THE VEHICLE STALLING. THIS IS THE 2ND NISSAN QUEST I OWNED AND IT IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE 1ST ONE HAD ISSUES AT 50,000+ MILES. THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS SAFETY ISSUE.
