gas pedal slowed &throttle switch had to be rebooted
paid $98 for relearning or rebooting codes...the throttle position switch is computerized and signals failed and throttle codes lost communication thereby the gas pedal slowly stopped working and I just barely made it to a garage. the first thing I noticed was the AC not working well and then car slowing down. looked at dash board and yellow indicator said engine failure (or whatever it says). I know you are suppose to park car asap but I was able to turn around and cross couple lights.....thank god the steering wheel didn't fail me. I was told that this happens to all cars. If it happens again I'll have to invest in a new throttle switch pkg....that will cost me. I want to know if Nissan had a recall in the past years.....I bought this as a used car in 2010 and so far I've had no problems. What would I do if I had been on freeway or our 4 lane highways.
