 Description of the problemWhile driving on a 3 lane road for which the speed limit is 55mph on a hot summer nevada day (103 degrees) the versa suddenly felt as if it was dragging and began to loose speed. Eventually the car stopped moving even though my foot was on the gas. I checked the fuel level which still had a little less than half , checked to see if the gear was on neutral but it was on drive, i looked at the dashboard and the brake light and ps icon were on. I checked for the emergency break to see it was engaged but it was not. The a/c was blasting, the radio was on, the engine sounded active but car was not moving. I turned off everything, unplugged my ipod and turned off the ignition. I then turned the car on and was able to drive it another 3 miles to the safety of my home. I was advised by the sales person i dealt with to bring the car in for service. The service tech was unable to find anything wrong with the car, they could not recreate the issue and made me take the car back. I told the dealer i want to return the car, of course it's an issue because the 3 day period to return the car was already passed. I opened a case with the nissan hq , they are claiming it has to do with the gas i put in the car and the extreme temperatures in nevada. Nissan consumer affairs rep told me he heard of similar cases and problem went away when costumer changed the grade of gas used . This sounds like bologna to me. The dealer claims they will look into it, but i don't feel safe driving this vehicle. I read about other cases where this happened multiple times to 1 car in less than a week. It's a safety issue for me , my passengers and the drivers around me. No warning ,no time to get out on a busy freeway . I am not putting lives on the line.
