Consumer Description
Read the comment, "Vehicle doesn't slow down when taking foot of the acceleration pedal. Same both power settings. It will continue to move at slow speed on level ground. It behaves as though the minimum pedal motor speed is too fast. My concern is that it might get very fast without any pedal. Thank you." I can confirm the same issue has occurred with my 2019 Nissan Leaf. The car is seriously dangerous if you are not aware of this issue that occurs and that the only response is to forcefully hit the brakes...times this occurs: occasionally including merging onto highways at fast speeds and at low speeds as well. Problem is ongoing at least weekly since I bought the car 3/22. Serious injuries and deaths are likely to occur if this problem is not resolved. I would be surprised if injuries have not already occurred. I didn't know where to go to report this until I read an article with the above quotation. Here I am. Thank you.
