Consumer Description

MY 2003 NISSAN MURANO SL WILL SOMETIMES BE SLOW TO RESPOND TO ACCELERATOR INPUTS. USUALLY AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT AN HOUR, IF I COME TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR AN OFF RAMP, WHEN I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR, NOTHING HAPPENS FOR A SECOND OR TWO, THEN THE VEHICLE JUMPS FORWARD AT A RAPID RATE LIKE I FLOORED THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER I DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR SLIGHTLY OR AGGRESSIVELY. SOMETIMES IF IT GETS TOO BAD, I WILL TURN THE CAR OFF THEN START IT UP AGAIN TO RESET THE COMPUTER AND IT WILL FIX THE ISSUE FOR A WHILE. IT IS OBVIOUSLY SOME COMPUTER THING. MY DEALER IS USELESS AND I AM TIRED OF TAKING THE CAR IN TO HIM. HE DOESN'T FIX THINGS WELL IF I TELL HIM WHAT IS WRONG, TO ASK HIM TO DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM WOULD BE AGONIZING. I AM JUST LIVING WITH THIS UNTIL IT GETS WORSE, BUT IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
