“Nissan Versa Note 2014 49000 miles on 12/31/2018, transmission is failing, car doesn't accelerate correctly, I went to Nissan a month after warrenty expired and they could not help me. Car is in motion when transmission slips. Highway and residential driving.”
NHTSA complaint #11164262, filed 2018-12, 48,000 miles“My vehicle, unless I'm an exerting more pressure than necessary on the brakes, will lurch forward when the air conditioner fan kicks on. If I'm not consciously paying attention to pressing hard on the brake, the car will start to drift forward even at a standstill. The brakes do not brake smoothly. It is not a gradual smooth stop, it feels like slamming on the brakes with every stop.”
NHTSA complaint #10598812, filed 2014-06, 350 miles“When coming to a stop at a stop sign or red light, it seems as though even though you are braking, the car is still trying to push 'gas'. The car will feel like it is making little 'jerks'. It does not do it everytime, but enough to notice and make you uncomfortable. When stopped or parked, I also have noticed that the car 'shifts or moves easily and I am now in the habit of applying my emergency brake everytime I leave the car.”
NHTSA complaint #10605471, filed 2014-06, 50 miles“Was driving on highway during stop and go traffic and engine cut off completely while the car was in drive. Put car in park, and try to restart but vehicle would not restart and had to be pushed to the side of the road during traffic. Made several attempts to restart vehicle and it would not start. I let car sit for 30 minutes and car finally restarted. I took the car to dealership on 7/6/15 and they adjusted the idle but could not diagnose the issue. On 8/8/15, I was leaving a store and started to yield to turn onto a busy street and the car completely died again. …”
NHTSA complaint #10748203, filed 2015-08, 5,800 miles“This was just a rental vehicle, but this problem was serious enough that I feel it necessary to report. There is a recessed well above the accelerator that traps your foot. Several times while driving this vehicle, I would attempt to pivot my foot on its heel off the accelerator over to the brake, only to find my foot trapped in the recessed space above the accelerator. I would then have to relax my foot and pull it back in order to release my foot and move over to the brake. This delayed braking time several times unless I was consciously paying attention to avoid getting my foot trapped. …”
