| Description of the problem | Exiting parking lot, vehicle experienced sudden, "accute" out of control - acceleration. Immediately depressed brake pedal, yet xterra continued forward some 40 - 50 feet unimpeded, in a severe bucking fashion. Fortunately no person, nor object was in my path. Contacted nissan north america, was directed to take suv to local dealer (vallejo nissan) for inspection. Computer analysis displayed no mechanical issues. There are without a doubt, critical flaws, just waiting to be unleashed on an unsuspecting public. Nissan has staunchly refused any further evaluation. Your assistance would be appreciated. Thanks so much. |
