Vehicle Speed Control problem #1

Transmission has been slipping. Happens frequently when stopped at a red light, stop sign. . . When time to go car does not move. Complained to Nissan dealer in 2014 and they suggested changing the fluid. . . Could not find any problems. Fluid was changed and I am still having problems. Will be taking it to another dealer this week. I understand Nissan has had major issues with coolant leaking into transmission as I had a 2005 Nissan Frontier and this is what happened to me. Nissan would not compensate me as my mileage was 100+k. When I treaded in my 2005 for a 2010 I was assured that Nissan had fixed the defect. Here we go again. . . I should have known better!.

Vehicle Speed Control problem #2

The contact owns a 2010 Nissan Frontier. While pulling out from a parking spot in reverse, the contact's foot became stuck near the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal causing the vehicle to surge at a high rate of speed to 80 mph. The contact had extreme difficulty getting his foot released from the accelerator pedal and the vehicle crashed into a vehicle in reverse and into shopping carts which then crashed into a third vehicle. The driver and the front passenger sustained whip lash, back pains and minor bruising. A police report was filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was not available.
