I was driving with one passenger going at very low speed. I began to turn into parking area and suddenly the car accelerated at an alarming speed. I applied total pressure on the brake to no avail, it did not override the acceleration. I steered into the back of another parked vehicle. The impact pushed the large heavy vehicle down into a ditch and deployed the airbags for both myself and passenger. 911 was called, Police arrived, tow trucks. My vehicle was totalled, and insurance now has the claim. If this has occurred on a highway or busy city street, many lives would have been at risk.

While I was accelerating to 60mph from a stop light on us 287 and isabelle road in boulder county, Colorado, the car continued to accelerate uncontrolled to over 70. Accelerator pedal seemed to not work at all. I braked and slowed down but it was fighting the maximum acceleration. I tried pumping the brakes and kept slowing down and the car lost all engine power and seemed to brake itself. I pulled over to the side and turned off the car. Turned it back on and all seemed normal. I am concerned that others may panic in this situation and not be able to control the car. The 2015 Nissan Leaf I drive has 31,000 miles on it now and has had all updates and services.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Leaf. While driving approximately 25-30 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed and seized in position as the rpms increased. The contact stated that the brake pedal was depressed in an attempt to slow down the vehicle for approximately three blocks. Finally, the accelerator pedal independently released and the contact was able to slow down and stop the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure recurred once more the same day. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. Luther Nissan of inver grove (located at 1470 50th St E, inver grove heights, mn 55077, (952) 479-4974) was contacted by phone and an appointment was scheduled to have the vehicle diagnosed, which was still pending.

Whenever we come to a stop for a traffic light or a stop sign, and the speed of the car is < 3 miles, we noticed that when we apply brakes, they do not get applied immediately. There is a sudden surge in acceleration before the car comes to a complete stop. This is very noticeable especially when we apply brakes to slow the car before a traffic signal or stop sign and also in bumper to bumper traffic conditions. As a result, we tend to stop the car atleast couple of meters before the stop line or the car in front to buffer the acceleration by the car. Thank you

My 2015 Leaf S is 3 weeks old with less than 700 miles. I was descending an 8% grade hill in B mode with a sharp bend at the bottom. As I went to apply the brakes, the pedal went to the floor and B mode cut out. The car was now rolling down the hill and accelerating under gravity with no brakes and without B mode slowing the car. I was expecting to hit a brick wall at the bottom of the hill when suddenly, after no more than two seconds, the brakes and B mode came back on and I safely stopped. On reflection after the incident, it was as if the whole computer/electronics momentarily shut down and then rebooted. I didn't notice if the dash lights went off or not.
