Consumer Description

CAR WOULD ACCELERATE TO MAXIMUM THROTTLE WHEN SITTING AT RED LIGHT OR AT STOP I WOULD HAVE TO APPLY BRAKE REAL HARD TO HOLD IT FROM TAKING OFF, SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL WOULD JUST CAUSE IT TO REV UNCONTROLLABLY, I WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON A FEW TIMES TO GET IT TO STOP. I TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THE CLAIMED THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE SAME SYMPTOM. I FINALLY TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A SOFTWARE CLICH. AND HAD TO RELOAD THE SOFTWARE AGAIN AT MY COST OF COURSE. I FEEL THIS IS NOT A UNUSUAL PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAD A PATHFINDER THAT DID THIS SAME THING AND NISSAN KNOWS OF THIS BUT WILL NOT ADMIT IT. VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS TO ME MY PASSENGER AND THE PUBLIC. LIKE I SAID IT HAPPENS IN SLOW TRAFFIC IN CITY DRIVING ON CROWED STREETS.
