 Description of the problemWhile driving at approximately 50 mph on a state highway, when i encounter a hill or attempt to accelerate to maintain speed the vehicle does not respond but instead hesitates and starts to slow. Only with a second or third application of pressure to the gas pedal does the vehicle start to accelerate. This has occurred several times within the last month. Also, while attempting to enter the interstate from a shopping center that i frequent i have to cross two lanes of high speed traffic to enter the third lane highway entrance. From a standing full stop i apply pressure to the gas pedal, the vehicle advances two or three feet and then comes to a complete stop. Additional pressure to the gas pedal produces no forward movement. The engine is running, the gearshift lever is in drive but the car does not move. Approaching high speed traffic is now swerving to avoid my stopped vehicle. This life threatening situation has occurred twice in the last month. On both occasions i have brought the vehicle to a nissan dealership for resolution of this problem. On the last occasion the vehicle was left for four days and i gave permission to the technician to operate the car at will to determine the problem. No problem could be detected. The vehicle has 34,000 on it. I believe operating this car in the present condition puts me at great risk. It is apparent to me that the transmission is defective and should be replaced or repaired while it still under warrenty.
