| Description of the problem | I was driving down the highway at 65-70 mph. Came to a slight long incline on the highway. It slowed to 60 miles per hour with the accelerator all the way pushed down. When i came to a rest stop and took off again-the acceleration was slow to pick up speed. This is not the first time this has happened. I was coming back from seattle to spokane, wa going up the mountain pass. I could not go over 30 miles per hour with the accelerator pushed all the way down. It happened on another hill further down the road. Again when i stopped-their was a delay in acceleration. Since this a company car and have the option to purchase it at 80,000 miles- i will not. Because i was going to buy it and give it to my daughter since she will be taking driver's education this year. I feel that this car is a safety hazard especially for a new driver. I will not be buying a nissan in the future for my daughter. Or any other nissan. I will also let our fleets department know about this problem. |
