After bringing it to my mechanic I was informed the frame was so rusted it was unsafe to drive. They are now trying to resell the vehicle not disclosing that information.

The paint above the front wheel well on both the passenger and drivers side of my 2012 nissan frontier (blue) with 69,0000 miles is pealing off in chunks. If do an internet search on 'paint flaking nissan frontier' you can see numerous pictures. Talking with the dealer, prevalent issue on dark colored frontiers (blue is especially prevalent.

The vehicle would randomly stall while driving, particularly when slowing for a traffic signal. The engine stopping would cause all power assisted functions to cease making it difficult to steer and brake. Most recently the vehicle would start extreme hesitation while driving and I could not get up to the posted speed limit of 55 mph. I had to use my flashers to warn other drivers that my speed was only approximately 35 mph. Also the transmission had difficulty shifting. This was extremely dangerous on a 2 lane highway where vehicles rapidly approached from the rear. It wouldn't negotiate a large hii (lack of power) and I had to have it towed to my home.

While hosing down the truck the paint on my front fenders started to peel in large chunks on the drivers side. According to the dealership it should not be peeling.

My truck has had what feels to me like a rough idle for about as long as I've had it. It was fine for several years but a couple of months ago the truck died at a stop light. It started right back up and I didn't think I'd be able to replicate this for a mechanic so I just kept driving it. It also died once on my wife but she didn't tell me about it at the time. A couple of weeks ago I was driving on the highway at lower speeds due to traffic. It died on me again and this time it wouldn't start. I had to...
