NHTSA Complaint #760996 — 1999 NISSAN QUEST

AFTER DRIVING THE VAN FOR 10-15 MILES, THE GAS PEDAL STICKS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD FIND A WAY TO FIX. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $130.00 TO HAVE THE CARBON BUILD-UP REMOVED. I ASKED WHY WAS IT NOT COVERED IN MY 3YR/36,000MI WARRENTY, I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED BECAUSE IT WAS NORMAL "WEAR AND TEAR" . IF THAT WAS NORMAL THEN WHY IS IT NOT IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. IT HAPPENDS DAILY SO FOR SAFETY REASONS I WILL HAVE TO FOOT $130.00 OF MY HARD EARNED MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING. I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING A RELIABLE FAMILY VAN, BUT I THOUGHT WRONG. I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED NISSAN'S( 3MAXIMA'S, 2 STANZA'S 1 QUEST ) AND HAVE REFERRED OVER 20 PEOPLE TO BUY NISSAN'S, BUT AS FAR AS A VAN GOES I AM VERY DISSATISFIED.*AK
