| Description of the problem | I have a 2011 nissan murano sl 2wd and am starting to have accelerating problems with the vehicle specially driving in stop and go traffic. The symptoms are when the vehicle warms up and am trying to accelerate it just refuses to move fir about 3-4 seconds the rpm will not increase and the vehicle will barely move and then all of a sudden it seems to engage and lurch forward. One time i almost got rear ended because of this issue while trying to merge into surface street traffic from a freeway exit . I had ample space between me another vehicle as i tried to merge into traffic but my vehicle was just crawling slowly forward by which time the other vehicle was almost on top of me honking and i was being cussed at and all for a sudden my vehicle decided to move and i had to swerve right on the side walk to prevent getting hit from behind. I talked to the dealer about the issue and they said the problem is the cvt transmission but there are no recalls on this year make and model but earlier models have a recall with same issues but i think it should be specially if the problem is intermittent and you just don |
