| Description of the problem | I was driving my truck a long distance yesterday and was on the interstate when this incident occurred, approximately 2 hours after killing the engine to get fuel. The check engine light came on, i was driving 70 mph at the time. Shortly after, a warning came up on my display stating "engine power degraded". I was on a mountain pass in the middle of nowhere and noticed the throttle was very slow, i couldnt speed up and that was very scary since i was on the interstate. I had to coast to the nearest dealer in aubun wa which was about 25 min away. As soon as i pulled off the interstate to slow down, the error cleared and i regained throttle and power. When i got there to the dealer service dept they said they had no diesel mechanics to look at my truck until 2 weeks and that i should leave it. They also told me they had no loaners, basically telling me to get a cab home. I live in tacoma, over an hour away from auburn. My truck had my dog and all my belongings inside since i just came home from a road trip, cabs were really not an option. I begged them to please just hook up diagnostics and tell me if i can make it home. They said it only showed "low voltage". They cranked my truck and i drove home. Currently it is stuck in the driveway and will not start. It will have to be towed to nissan in tacoma whenever they can actually find a diesel mechanic. Important to note this occurred after the car wreck i was in that was likely related to throttle not kicking in. Either way, i have no vehicle and nissan seems to think this is not their problem even though it is under warranty. It has become a safety nightmare and i am afraid to even drive this truck even if it was working. |
