2010 Nissan Versa. Consumer states unintended acceleration
the consumer stated he experienced engine acceleration while his foot was on the brake. The consumer stated he shifted the gear to neutral and the engine ran at an unusually high rpm for about 10 seconds before returning to its normal 1000 rpm. The second time the incident happened, the consumer was attempting to merge with the traffic from a parallel parking spot and while holding the foot brake, he felt the engine straining until he shifted the gear to neutral which allowed the engine to accelerate briefly and then it returned to normal. Finally, two weeks ago, when the consumer shifted from park to drive, the engine revved up and when he shifted back to neutral the rpm's rose to over 3,000 before settling back to normal.

2008 Nissan Versa; purchased new. Currently under 2,000 miles on odometer. Extremely long crank times before engine turns over. Vehicle brought back to dealership for warranty service to correct problem. After keeping vehicle for a day dealership informed that they "could not duplicate the problem" and couldn't/wouldn't attempt to fix or diagnose problem. 5 to 10 second crank times without vehicle starting up - on a daily basis - is a serious concern.

I have had this car for less than one week. The mileage is currently at about 275 miles. When I turn the key in the ignition, the car doesn't start until I hold the key turned for at least 5 seconds. This is very frustrating because it seems as if it will not start. This happens daily, whether it is hot or cold outside. It is not contingent on the time of day either.
