ENGINE
THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING LIGHT HAS COME ON SEVERAL TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED MY 2003 NISSAN MURANO. WHEN IN SLOW TRAFFIC OR THE ENGINE HAS WARMED UP, WHEN I PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR WILL NOT PICK UP SPEED, UNLESS I DEPRESS IT TO THE FLOOR BOARD. I'M TERRIFIED THAT I WILL BE HIT FROM THE REAR WHILE WAITING FOR MY TO GET ENGINE POWER. DOING MY RESEARCH ONLINE I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID # 03V455000) FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. I CALLED NISSAN WITH MY VIN # AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN# WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. I'M VERY FRUSTRATED WITH NISSAN AT THIS POINT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IF MY CAR IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL, SAME YEAR, MAKE & MODEL, WHY THEY WOULD TAKE A CHANCE IN THE SAFETY OF ME AS WELL AS MY FAMILY. IS THERE ANYONE OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT I CAN DO IN ORDER FOR NISSAN TO HONOR THIS RECALL SINCE IT WAS HAVE A DIRECT EFFECT ON THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS IF IT WAS TO CAUSE A CRASH AS THEY DESCRIBE IN THEIR RECALL. *TR
