NHTSA Complaint #11118128 — 2015 NISSAN MURANO

AT ABOUT 10,000 MILES AT LOW SPEEDS ON LOCAL CITY ROADS, I COULD SOMETIMES FEEL VIBRATIONS AND A LACK OF ACCELERATION THAT FELT LIKE THE TRANSMISSION COULDN'T DECIDE WHAT TO DO. ALWAYS AT SPEEDS UNDER 20 MPH AND GENERALLY WHEN EITHER SLOWING DOWN FOR AN INTERSECTION OR STARTING TO SPEED UP WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED GREEN IN TIME THAT I DIDN'T NEED TO FULLY STOP. AFTER A FEW OF THESE I TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THE FIRST TIME THEY SAID THERE HAD BEEN NO ERROR CODES GENERATED AND TO JUST KEEP DRIVING IT. AFTER THE SECOND OR THIRD TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, NOW WITH 12,839 MILES ON IT THEY REPROGRAMMED THE STEERING ANGLE ADJUSTMENT AND THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY. HOWEVER, NOW AT 21,000 MILES, IT SEEMS TO BE COMING BACK AGAIN. I FEEL LIKE THE CVT AND COMPUTER HAVE A PROBLEM COMMUNICATING WITH EACH OTHER IN THESE LOW-SPEED SITUATIONS. THIS HESITATION IN ACCELERATION COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND CERTAINLY FEELS UNSAFE.
