2008 Nissan ALTIMA Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	934737
Internal NHTSA #	10469991
Manufacurer	NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2008
File date	25/06/12
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Purchased the vehicle, noticed from start that it had an issue with acceleration. At an easy(normal)acceleration the vehicle hesitates and/or surges between 25 -40 mph. Once passed 40mph or so it clears up. I have taken the vehicle to local nissan dealership several times. I have even referenced technical service bulletin ntb10-121b, to the dealer. Work was supposedly performed per bulletin but made no difference. Have been told by service manager that it a normal operating characteristic. Bulletin states that this is "normal." i am sure that this was not stated to car buyer before purchase. This hesitation is unpredictable and has caused several near misses in regards to accidents because the vehicle fails to accelerate properly. This "normal operation" is a deficiency that nissan is aware of and has provided little or no resolution. Have contacted nissan corporate and have received little if any consideration or concern for issue. The response i receive is "if the service department says this is normal operation then it is normal operation." the "normal operation" causes this vehicle to be dangerous and unpredictably unreliable. It needs to be examined much further and a remedy needs to be created, designed, devised or developed.
