Hey Mo people,
I had a real bad things happened to my MO couple hours ago while driving to work. I’m working in Manhattan and most of you know those crazy cub drivers. Well, I was in the traffic driving not more than 1-10-15 MPH. At some point I have a window, so I accelerate and the taxi cab just cut in the front of me. I HIT the brakes and I mean it. I hit hard, all way down and very very fast. I heard nasty “knock” from the engine compartment. After I release the brakes and I try to accelerate I had NO throttle. Mo stays running and no warning lights on the dash board. I push the pedal to the floor, by the tach jut stay below 1000 RPMs, like I was just idling. I am not talking about the partial loss of power, what the other people experience I am talking about of COMPLETE power loss, ZERO. Thanks to nissanmurano.org I remember that somebody suggest “reboot” the car (damn computers). I shut it down than restarted and everything seems back to normal. This whole situation did scare the $h&t out of me. I just picture it if something like this happened on 80 MPH. It might be some nasty accident. Now, all you CVTs and Mo’s guru what the hex happened???? Do I need to complain to my dealer and make them check Mo?? Unfortunately, I doubt it I could simulate this situation again, but most important that I really do not want to. Thanks!
