| 2013 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | I PURCHASED MY PATHFINDER IN JULY 2013 AND HAVE HAD 2 ISSUES. THE FIRST IS A SPUTTERING WITH THE GAS PEDAL WHICH OCCURS QUITE FREQUENTLY UNDER LOW SPEEDS. TOOK IT IN FOR EVALUATION AND NISSAN SAID THAT'S HOW CVT TRANSMISSIONS WORK AND THAT IT WAS NORMAL. VERY STRANGE. THE SECOND ISSUE I AM CURRENTLY HAVING IS THE MOST CONCERNING. WHILE TRAVELING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, WHEN I PUSH ON THE GAS PEDAL THERE IS NO POWER AT ALL AND NO ACCELERATION. AT TIMES THE PEDAL CAN BE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THEN 2 TO 3 SECONDS LATER THE ACCELERATION COMES BACK. IT HAS HAPPEN TO ME IN A PASSING SITUATION ON THE FREEWAY AND WHILE MAKING A TURN AT AN INTERSECTION AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY IN SERVICE TO BE EVALUATED AND THEY HAVE SAID UNLESS THEY CAN REPLICATE THE ISSUE ON THEIR END THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION, I HAVE 3 KIDS THAT RIDE IN THE VEHICLE ON A DAILY BASIS AND THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN FROM A CONSUMER STANDPOINT. I HAVE DOCUMENTED WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS AS A RESULT OF THIS, BUT I MUST SAY AS THIS CAR WAS A HUGE INVESTMENT FOR MY WIFE AND OUR FAMILY WE ARE EXTREMELY CONCERNED AND DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE WE LOVE THE CAR SO MUCH AND WOULDN'T EXPECT THIS FROM A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. I HAVE READ A HIGH NUMBER OF COMMON ISSUES JUST LIKE MINE AND I JUST DON'T GET HOW NISSAN HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING ABOUT THIS. IT SEEMS AS IF THE 2013 MODEL HAS A NUMBER OF ISSUES. *TR |
