I recently bought a 2004 qx56. After getting it home, I noticed several issues that were not seen are able to identify on 5 minute test drive. The cruise control does not work. The 12 power sockets in the front do not work (replaced all fuses). When I got it out on open road, I tried to punch the gas. It coughed and sputtered at 3000 rpm. The second day I had it, it broke down as I was leaving my work place. It would start and then die. After getting it going again, we were driving it and just lost all power. Both times it gave a U1000 code on the obd-ii.

After fighting with these issues and others, I noticed some rust on the metal frame near the fuse box. This caused me to start looking around. I found heavy rust and corrosion on the drive's front brake caliper, heavy rust on the frame inside the driver's seat back along with others. Any ideas?

Sounds like it could been in a flood which would also cause various electrical issues that get worse with time.
