The Nissan Versa is at 96000 miles. The first 2 times it happens was on the street, turning from parking lots to street. The car experienced a sudden accelerate, for a short moment (about 2 seconds). Those 2 times was 1 hour apart. The next times the incident happens was on the highway. From the stop light to entering the freeway, which needs acceleration. The car experienced a rapid shake, sudden accelerates.the accelerations happens very closely to each other, only seconds apart, and more noticeble. The tachometer shakes around 2 to 3. the car was driven off the freeway and back to the parking structure. When transfering, the car still experienced the sudden shakes and acceleration. It hasn't been operated since then due to safy concerns.
"takata recall" my dealership said that there's a restriction so that they can't fix it and they can't even get the parts in for my coil springs and my car is completely immobile right now
