NHTSA Complaint #10169405 — 2005 NISSAN MURANO

EXITING PARKING LOT ONTO ROADWAY, ENGINE HESITATION WITH LITTLE ACCELERATION, AWD LOCK COMES ON, SERVICE ENGINE SOON COMES ON. TURN OFF ROADWAY, SHUT OFF VEHICLE AND RESTART, NO ACCELERATION POWER, MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHTS STILL ON - CANNOT DRIVE VEHICLE. NEXT MORNING TOWED TO DEALERSHIP; REPORT IS A CODE U1000 - ELECTRICAL AND GROUND WIRE PROBLEM. TSB PROCEDURE FOLLOWED BASED ON THE CODE. HOWEVER, TSB SAYS IT APPLIES TO THE CODE ONLY WHEN NO MALFUNCTION INDICATORS LIGHTS ARE ON. THEREFORE, I DO NOT BELIEVE PROBLEM IS FIXED. ALSO, SINCE THEN A VIBRATION IS DETECTED THROUGH THE GAS PEDAL WHEN ACCELERATING. SERVICE MANAGER AND TECH TEST DROVE AND STATED THERE WAS SOMETHING DETECTED BUT NO FIX SINCE THERE IS NO TSB FOR THIS KIND OF PROBLEM.
