| Description of the problem | We were driving back home when my husband noticed that the car would not accelerate above 65 mph. This occurred about halfway home, so about 200 miles into our drive back home (of the 350 mile total). The car was not overheated, nor was it making noise. He would put his foot down all the way on the accelerator, as if he wanted to go full speed and it would not respond. There weren't any warning lights lit up on the console, and it was not overheated. We immediately called our local honda dealer and explained the problem we were having. They said we could take the car into them, but we would have to pay $150 just for the inspection of the vehicle, and they confirmed there wasn't a recall so we would also have to foot the bill for the repairs. We stopped to eat and calm our nerves and got back on the road. When we got back in the car, the problem did not start up again until a few months later, during our next long drive away from home, and have avoided taking it on long trips since then. This was my first and last nissan. I can't wait to get rid of the rogue! It has proven to be busy with electrical issues. *js |
