“It does not accelerate from a stop very well. Sometimes I try to pull into traffic and cannot accelerate fast enough and feel terribly frightened that I will be hit from behind as a result. It seems to be worse when going uphill. After 5 seconds maybe it kicks in and begins accelerating. This is an extremely dangerous problem. I feel like it will cause an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #10870224, filed 2016-05, 95,000 miles“I was driving on m52 and was going to attempt to pass a slow moving vehicle. I stabbed the accelerator pedal to pass and it stuck in this position. I cancelled my attempt to pass due to traffic and had to brake the vehicle. I was able to keep control but I had to pump the accelerator several times to get it to release. This is actually the second time this has happened with this vehicle. The first I was stuck in my yard in the snow. …”
NHTSA complaint #10705135, filed 2015-04, 64,000 miles“1) airbag light alarm for passenger seat goes on suddently after 80,000 miles. After dealer inspection, seems to be related to the occupant classification system (ocs) varistor located in the front passenger seat cushion, as mentioned in your ntb08-095 november 4, 2008 recall campaign. Found it strange my vehicule VIN is not associated to this complaint, but I have the problem. 2) alternator suddently died after 80,000 miles without warning, while driving on the highway. Had time to pull on the side, but situation could have been dramatic. …”
NHTSA complaint #11061537, filed 2018-01, 80,000 miles“The issue is when the anti-lock brakes are engaged. After they are engaged the break pressure immediately goes soft and the brake pedal goes to the floor with no breaks. I have reported this for the past 2 years and the Nissan dealership tells me that they cannot reproduce the effect and that they are fine. It only seems to happen in the winter months when its cold. I have to pull to the side of the road and shut the car down and restart again. It seems to reset the anti-lock brake system. Ive noticed there is an investigation going on and wanted to report what I have found as well. …”
