NHTSA Complaint #10875878 — 2004 NISSAN MURANO

WHILE DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC MIND U A BIG TRUCK WAS BEHIND ME TRAFFIC IS STOP AND GO, AS I PRESS DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR THERE WAS NO MOVEMENT FROM MY VEHICLE, LIKE IT LOSS POWER, I THOUGH MAYBE THE GEAR WAS CHANGED, BUT THEN IT DAWNED ON ME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME NOT ONCE OR TWICE, BUT IT'S BEGINNING TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY THIS IS NOT NORMAL. I CONFIRMED THAT THE GEAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE, AS I PRESSED DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR MY VEHICLE JERKED AS IT PROCEEDED TO TAKE OFF (AS IF IT WAS IN TURBO BOOST), I COULD HAVE HIT SOMEONE ELSE'S CAR (GOOD THING I DIDN'T). THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER MANY, MANY LIVES ARE AT STAKE. I'M DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS MATTER HAVE NOT RAISED CORPORATE EYES AT NISSAN . THE REASON FOR THIS PAGE IS FOR CONSUMERS TO REPORT COMPLAINTS BUT IT SEEMS AS IF I'M NOT GETTING THE ANSWERING THAT'S NEEDED TO FIX THIS SERIOUS ISSUE AND NOR ARE THE OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE LISTED THEIR COMPLAINTS. THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE ADDRESSED AFTER PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES BY HAVING/CAUSING ACCIDENTS DUE TO LOSS OF POWER. THIS IS SCARY FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. I GET NERVOUS WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND OR THE EXPRESSWAY NOT KNOWING WHEN THIS FAULTY POWER TRAIN ISSUE WILL HAPPEN. GOOD THING THAT BIG TRUCK DIDN'T RUN INTO THE BACK OF ME THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO JEOPARDIZE THEIR LIVES AND OTHERS. NISSAN SHOULD CORRECT THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. HOW AND WHEN IS IT DETERMINED ON WHAT COMPLAINT GET ADDRESSED. DISAPPOINTED CUSTOMER. ALSO, THE ACTUATORS ON MY PASSENGER SIDE BOTH FRONT AND BACK DOES NOT WORK THEY HAVE TO BE LOCKED MANUALLY ALONG WITH THE HATCH IT DOESN'T SEEM TO LOCK EITHER. THE ACTUATORS SHOULD NOT GO OUT AND SHOULD BE REPLACED.
