| Description of the problem | Today i was driving on the highway going a steady speed of about 70 mph for about 30-40 consecutive minutes. My 2008 nissan rogue sl began to decelerate slowly. I began to press gradually on the gas pedal. As i did this, the car made a weird sound as if it was trying to shut off. At this point my foot was pressed to the floor on the gas pedal and the cars rpm was going as high as 4000 but the car itself was not accelerating over 50 mph. All of this happening while i was on the highway at around 6:30 pm. I could have easily gotten into an accident. This is not the first time this has happen either. A few times i have been at a complete stop at a red light or coming off of the highway ramp and the car will take 10-15 seconds to accelerate and take off! This is seriously dangerous but can also be quite annoying for the car behind me. All this happening with no warning lights on my dash, i have gotten the car checked out but to no avail no codes are coming up and my car seems to be fine. I honestly believe this is a glitch in the software or system. I have read many complaints on mulitple different forums complaining of the same issue on the same make, year and model! I honestly believe this should be recalled and hope that one of your technicians seriously look into this before someone gets seriously hurt! |
