 Description of the problemI purchased my murano from a used car dealer 9 months ago. Until recently the car was working great, however recently, the car stopped accelerating.. After shutting the car off for a few moments and restarting the acceleration issue appears to be solved. The following day the issue continued after i stopped at a light. After depressing the accelerator for a few seconds, the car feels like it is going to stall. After shutting the car off and turing it back on it takes of like it is in a drag race but seems to temporarily solve the issue until you come to a stop, this has become a constant routine when driving the vehicle. When the car comes to a full stop (as in traffic) it feels like it wants to stall. You can keep it going by keeping one foot on the gas and one on the brake then when the accelerator is pressed, the car takes off like in a drag race. I was informed by a nissan dealer that the cause of the stalling is the power train; the cost of which to replace will be upwards of $4000. After doing my own research i found out that the issues i am experiencing is common to muranos manufactured between 2003-2009 and that nissan has steadfastly refused to recall the vehicles and fix these faulty cvts. This is quite perplexing as many thousands of people across the country have reported similar issues. I cannot afford this costly repair and i am still making payments on the car. Because this is such a common problem and a great safety issue, nissan needs to be forced to recall these cars and replace the part that is causing the problem!
