| Description of the problem | For the second time while in the middle of driving, this time on the freeway, the car would not accelerate when the gas pedal was pressed. I pressed it all the way down and the rpm would not go up and the car was slowing down. It happened before on a local street with the same scenario. On the freeway i was at 70 mph when it happened and on the local street i was at 35 mph. It started accelerating after i had to let the car cruise for about ten seconds as it was losing speed. Also i am now having to take the car in to service for the 5th time because the reverse back up camera will not work. The camera goes black and nothing is visible. Nissan tried to say it was because of my phone connected to bluetooth in the car and to try it without a phone connected. I did and it still happened. I recorded a video of the incident again but if i can't have a phone connected to blue tooth to be hands free, then i am violating the law. I can't see behind me which is very troublesome when it is foggy outside and can't see very well out the windows. I have provided to images. One showing no bluetooth device connected and the other with the black reverse camera. *bf |
