general problems of the 2015 Nissan Leaf

Unintended acceleration: vehicle continue to accelerate even after the gas pedal is released or not slow down as expected.

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.

Tl 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. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 25,000. Piir=y.

Lost power and coast to a stop and then started up over 12 times in a 2 day period new car had to turn rotors should have been replaced.

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.
