NHTSA Complaint #11041869 — 2009 NISSAN ROGUE

1. FAILURE TO ACCELERATE AND SHAKING/STALLING LIKE BEHAVIOR. WHILE ENTERING INTERSECTION, CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND CONTINUED TO FAIL TO ACCELERATE AS I DROVE THE CAR THE TWO MILES TO WORK. I THOUGHT MAYBE I DIDN'T STEP ON THE ACC. ALL THE WAY THE FIRST TIME I WAS ALMOST HIT BY A CAR, BUT REALIZED IT CONTINUED TO CRAWL ALONG UNTIL I GOT TO SPEEDS OVER 20MPH. I WAS ALMOST HIT SEVERAL TIMES (A MINIMUM OF THREE TO INCLUDE T BONED AND REAR END TYPE COLLISIONS DURING THE TWO MILE DRIVE). GOT CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME THAT IT WAS NOT THE TRANSMISSION BUT IT WAS A FAULTY SENSOR SWITCH THAT TOLD THE CAR I WAS BRAKING ALTHOUGH I WAS ACCELERATING. DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO RETURN CAR TO ME UNTIL I HAD SENSOR REPLACED DUE TO SAFETY HAZARD. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OF THESE ISSUES. ADDITIONALLY, SEVERAL OF THESE ISSUES EXIST NATIONWIDE AS NOTED BY NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS. 121000MILES. DISCUSSED IF IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION, NISSAN WAS GOING TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP WITH COSTS SINCE IT WAS RIGHT OUTSIDE OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 120K MILES FOR KNOWN TRANSMISSION ISSUE (WHICH I HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF). NISSAN DEEMED IT WAS NOT THE TRANSMISSION, HOWEVER, COULD NOT SAY WHAT CAUSED THE SHAKING. 2. CAR STILL STUTTERED, BUT THE DRAG WAS GONE AFTER REPLACING SENSOR FOR TWO MONTHS. DRAG IS BACK AND CAR STILL SHUTTERS. WAS TOLD BY A DIFFERENT PLACE THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS SHOT. 124700 MILES. IT SHUTTERS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL IN TRAFFIC WHEN SLOWING DOWN, IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, AND A LOWER SPEEDS.
