I have a 2016 nissan altima with 85,000 miles that is currently experiencing some issues. I've found multiple people online that are having the same problem. The vehicle at times when pushing down the accelerator will not respond then suddenly take off like it's in 3rd gear. This has caused me too get stuck in intersections with no power and nearly causing accidents. Nissan is saying there is no issue. How can this…

As my family and i were driving on the highway the vehicle started to drop speed from 70 miles to about 10 miles per hour. As i tried to speed up by accelerating, the speed would not go higher and would just continue to drop. The vehicles behind me were able to see i was having difficulty and would slow down when they got close and go around me, so i am glad no accidents happened since we were driving in heavy…

When i am stopped (at a stop sign, traffic light, etc.) the car hesitates to accelerate when i press the gas. It sometimes takes 5 to 7 seconds before the car will begin to accelerate. This happens randomly, and there is no warning. There have been instances when the rpms rev up extremely high and the car feels like it is struggling to maintain speed. I have taken it to the nissan dealership, and since they can't…
