From a complete stop my car would not accelerate faster than 10 mph. It has happened several times now. The first time I was on the highway in stop and go traffic and when it was time to accelerate, I was unable to even pressing the gas all the way to the floor. I had to pull over and brake, then hit the gas and it was able to go again. The next time was after braking at a stop sign. The third time was after stopping at a red light. I had heavy traffic behind me and I could only go 10 mph. I even noticed after I parked my car and got out of it my brake lights were still on as if someone was sitting there pressing the brake-which wasn't the case at all. This is very dangerous. I had my child in the car all three times and im lucky I did not get rear ended.

I purchased my Nissan in August of 2018. It only had a little over 23K miles. On 12/22/2018 I took my vehicle to baron Nissan where I purchased it and advised that the vehicle would not accel when speed was below 20 miles per hour. If I attempted to slow down and then begin to accel again the vehicle would not move. It just rolls as I press the gas pedal many times. Then all of a sudden the vehicle would begin to accel. The dealer advised the stop lamp switch needed to be replaced and it was covered under warranty. I left with the vehicle and then two days later I began to have the same issue again. It is random and you never can tell when it's going to happen. This is very dangerous when attempting to get on a highway or making a left turn and the car doesn't accelerate. Car went back to baron Nissan on 12/29/2018. The vehicle was checked, driven personally by service manager and I was told they could not find an error code stating what the problem could be. Now I have reviewed this site and see 3 other owners are having the same problem. Now I have recorded my car slip light being on more than on one occasion, my brake lights stay on even when the vehicle is off and I begin to feel the same problem with the vehicle not accelerating. Im trying to teach my son how to drive and car would not accel as he was making a left turn. This problem is a very serious safety issue and Nissan needs to get a perminant fix immediately. At this time my vehicle has only 29K miles and I will be reporting problem to Nissan corporate

Since the purchase of the vehicle, my Nissan Pathfinder has failed to accelerate either at a stop or during normal speed. The engine would not stall, but would only accelerate almost at idle speed. The symptom of the problem would occur a couple of time then the slip indicator light would display and stay on until the car was shut down and restarted, I have several pictures demonstrating the issue as described for when the indicator slip light for the limited slip control would display in clear conditions. This would occur in ideal weather conditions and road conditions were clear and my foot was definitely not engaging the brake pedal. This presents a significant safety issue, especially when attempting to pull into oncoming traffic or attempting to pass a slower vehicle. I could depress the gas pedal to the floor with no impact on acceleration. I have had several near misses with oncoming traffic due to failure to accelerate. I took in the vehicle into D-patrick Nissan in evansville, Indiana several times and to andy mohr Nissan, indianapolis Indiana. In both cases, the dealership was unable to detect any issues with code errors or replicate the issue even after I provide photo evidence of the issue I was having. The failure to accelerate is so random and can happen several days in one week or at least once a week. When it does happen I know it will not change until I can shut down the vehicle and restart. Some instances the failure to accelerate would persist but most of the time is would correct itself after restarting. I am afraid to drive the car with my wife and three children in it. I finally decided to file a complaint after I found another Nissan Pathfinder owner who was having the exact same issue with his Nissan Pathfinder.

At intermittent times while driving the vehicle will not accelerate when you push on the gas, this is very dangerous not only to me but to other people because it has almost caused accidents. When this occurs the traction control light will come on and remain lit until the car is restarted. Also the brake lights will stay light. It has been taken to the dealership where no codes could be found, on 05/02/2018 it was taken back to the dealership after many calls to Nissan motors about this problem they gave me a reference case # of 30341997 all this was given to the dealership to try to find the problem a second time after they were contacted by Nissan and myself. After 7 hours of having my car for diagnostics I was told it appears to be a factory defect that needs 3 parts ordered to do a work around. Two new wiring harnesses and a switch that will allow them to bypass brake switch relay and reroute to body control module, I was told this would cost and additional $500 plus on top of the $121.62 I already paid for the diagnostics I do not think a consumer should have to pay for a factory defect firstly, then how is this work around going to affect the safety of my vehicle for myself and others" also Nissan must be well aware of this problem for them to already have manufactured these parts to do a work around to correct it. Are they trying to risk people lives to save a dollar" so in summery I have an acceleration problem that is going to get someone killed traction control issue that I have no idea if it is working correctly or not or if it is going to be disabled. Brake lights that stay on when driving when this happens that other drivers can't tell if I am applying the brakes or not. Don't like the idea of having such a new model car have a safety issue workaround done on it that it was not designed for.

Vehicle would not accelerate intermittently almost causing accidents. Vehicle would not go over 20 mph from a complete stop and or when switching from braking to accelerating. Also break lights were left on even if vehicle was turned off. The fault is the stop lamp relay circuit and stop lamp switch.
