Problem overview

Some Nissan Cube owners report experiencing engine shutdowns while cruise control is engaged, which may be linked to several potential issues. These include problems with fuel, such as bad gas or deposits in the fuel system, which can lead to engine stalling. Additionally, a clogged fuel filter may reduce fuel pressure, contributing to the engine shutting off. Some owners suspect that a faulty transmission control computer or relay could be responsible for the shutdown while driving. Other factors, like dirty or fouled spark plugs and a malfunctioning fuel line regulator, have also been noted as possible causes. Addressing these issues promptly with a qualified mechanic is crucial for effective diagnosis and resolution.
