Consumer Description
Sometimes when you push the gas to take off after coming to a stop my 2016 Altima will not accelerate for several seconds. The RPMs will go high but the car won't move for several seconds and then it moves very slow for several more seconds. If it doesn't straighten up on its own I've discovered I can turn the car off for a few seconds and restart it. When I do this the transmission will work again. I've almost been struck by another car more than once when I attempted to pull out of a business and my car "stalls". I think Nesaun should fix this problem before someone is killed or seriously hurt. This has been an ongoing problem since I got the car in 2019 with 35000 miles on it.
