| Description of the problem | Suddenly the car no longer accelerated. Nothing was coming or showing me that something was wrong. Stopped at a gas station and turned off the engine and on again then the "service engine soon" light came on. Tried to accelerate but nothing, everything was running smoothly but the car was just not accelerating. Suddenly it started going really slow but 500 feet on the road i had to pull over since the speed went no more than 20mph on a 40mph road. I tried pushing the gas pedal to the limit but nothing. The day before i went to nissan dealership for a diagnostics which i was charged $105 for. They tried to get me to trade in my car for a new one. They recommended i get the oil pressure switch repair as well as something with the coolant flush and transmission flush. I was going go take it tomorrow but this happened i don't know what to do. The reason i took it to nissan in the first place was because i was told my model and year were found to be erroneous with transmission. |
