CAR MAX DEALER DIDN'T REALLY KNOW.I THINK HE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THE FINISH, I'M. IT SURE. IT WAS NOTHING ABOUT THE INSIDES OF THE CAR I JUST WANT TO TAKE CARE OF IT ASAP. N/A AT NISSAN I JUST BOUGHT IT AT CAR MAX I SCHAUMBURG I DON'T KNOW I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT YOU THEN GO GET IT FIXED AT NISSAN.

DRIVING IN SAN FRANCISCO IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE CAR WILL TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE GAS IS PRESSED-LONG ENOUGH TO HAVE PEOPLE BEHIND BE HONK-THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES.TOOK THE CAR IN AND WAS TOLD THE CAR STARTS IN HIGH GEAR. THEY TRIED TO ADJUST THE CVT A FEW TIMES, BUT THERE IS STILL AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION.

I WAS SLOWLY PARALLEL PARKING AND BACKING UP TOWARDS THE SIDEWALK. THEN, I WANTED TO MOVE MY FOOT FROM THE GAS TO THE BRAKE IN ORDER TO CUT THE WHEEL. BUT, I CONTINUED TO BACK UP. BEFORE I COULD EVEN THINK ABOUT WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING MY CAR HIT THE TREE AT THE EDGE OF THE SIDEWALK. AT FIRST, I CHALKED IT UP TO . . . A STRANGE/UNCHARACTERISTIC POOR PHYSICAL REACTION ON MY PART. HOWEVER, I HAVE ALWAYS FELT LIKE IT WAS A VERY STRANGE EVENT AND AT THE TIME THERE WAS A RISE OF PANIC AS I REALIZED MY FOOT WAS NOT GOING OVER TO THE BRAKE. SINCE IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY I COULD NEVER TEASE OUT EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED BUT I HAVE FELT AS THOUGH MY FOOT WERE STUCK THERE ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE IMPACT WITH THE TREE LOOSENED IT. (I THINK). NOW, I SEE RECALLS FOR OTHER NISSANS. THE VERY NIGHT OF THE ACCIDENT I ACTUALLY GOOGLED THE NISSAN GAS PEDAL . . . I WENT RIGHT TO MY VIN # AND CHECKED BUT MY NISSAN VERSA 2012 WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. HOWEVER, I SAW THAT LAST YEAR OTHER MODELS (2013+) DID HAVE PROBLEMS. I STILL HAD A WEIRD FEELING ABOUT IT EVEN THOUGH MY VERSION WAS NOT BEING INVESTIGATED. AND LAST WEEK WHEN I SAW THAT ON THE NEWS THAT 2012S WERE NOW ALSO BEING RECALLED I WENT BACK TO LOOK UP MY VIN # AND STILL NO MATCH. I THINK IT IS JUST WEIRD. AND, THE WHOLE THING HAPPENED IN 1 SEC. AND OVER A SPAN OF MAYBE 3? FEET . . . SO IT IS REALLY HARD FOR ME TO DECIDE EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING ON. MY HEAD WAS TURNED BACKWARDS AND I WAS LOOKING AT THE TREE SO I CAN'T HONESTLY SAY I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW MY FOOT WAS STUCK . . . NOT SURE IF THIS IS HELPFUL OR NOT BUT I THOUGHT I'D SUBMIT THIS EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT SURE AND LET YOU ALL SEE WHAT YOU THINK GIVEN OTHER'S COMPLAINTS.

THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. THERE IS HESITATION BETWEEN 20-30 MPH. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST PERFORMED AND WAS TOLD: SYSTEM: TRANSMISSION, PART NUMBER: 31036-3AA6B, DTC: P0740, DETAILED INFO: TORQUE CONVERTER

SINCE THE CAR MADE NOISE WHEN I TURNED RIGHT OR LEFT, I WENT TO INDIVIDUAL REPAIR SHOP TO CHECK AND THEY FOUND OUT THE LEFT SUSPENSION SPRING WAS TOTALLY BROKEN INTO TWO PARTS. THERE IS NO INJURY OR ACCIDENT DUE TO THE BREAK BUT IT WAS VERY GANGEROUS CONDITION IF I KEPT DRIVING.

I WAS DRIVING AT THE SPEED OF 40 MPH. SUDDENLY, THERE WAS A BIG SOUND LIKE 'BANG' FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR. I PULLED THE CAR OVER AND WHEN I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL, I CAN HEAR NOISE. LATER THAT DAY, I FOUND FRONT DRIVER SIDE COIL SPRING WAS BROKEN.

AIR BAG LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY BLINKING...THIS MEANS THE AIRBAG IS NON FUNCTIONAL...THIS HAS BEEN A RECALL ITEM BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT LISTED.... MEANS AIRBAG IS NON FUNCTIONAL..
