NHTSA Complaint #11374892 — 2012 NISSAN MURANO

POWER LOSS ON TAKE OFF. ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR OVER A YEAR AND IS INTERMITTENT. WHEN STARTING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION, IE STOP SIGN, RED LIGHT, OR HIGHWAY ONRAMP, THE VEHICLE WILL ENGAGE, BUT IMMEDIATELY LOOSE ACCELERATION. THE GAS PEDDLE CAN BE FULLY PRESSED, WITH NO REACTION. AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE POWER GETS RESTORED AND VEHICLE TAKES OFF AS IF ENGAGING A JET BOOSTER. A VISIT AND DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AT A NISSAN DEALER, DID NOT REVEAL AND FAULTS OR CODES, AND ISSUE COULD NOT BE RECREATED. THIS ISSUES IS RANDOM, AND BASED ON A NISSAN OWNER FORUM, I LEARNED IT HAS PLAGUED THE MURANO AND IS LEXIS COUNTER PART FOR DIFFERENT MODEL YEARS. NO FORUM ENTRIES AS TO KNOWN CAUSE OR CORRECTIVE FINDINGS BY THE DEALERSHIPS OR MECHANICS.
