Lights and electrics soon dimmed and barely idled into driveway?????? No dash warning lights????

Bose/Clarion system was replaced 5 times under warranty (Nissan uses refurbished parts for warranty work, look closely for blue paint marks on driveline, they may knowingly put defective, refurbished parts in "NEW" vehicles also. Radio works but CD quit (getting ERR F3 code) any ideas?

 

I thought it might be the shift linkage but its not since you can't rev in D right? What about in 3, 2 or reverse positions? Check the transmission fluid - does it look/smell burnt? I hope Im wrong but it does not look good.
