IllustrationWHEN I ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE DOESN'T SPEED UP AND SOMETIMES IT HESITATES. THIS IS DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN ENTERING THE FREEWAY IT TAKES A WHILE AFTER I ACCELERATE FOR THE CAR TO GET UP TO SPEED. SEEMS LIKE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. INFINITI NEEDS A RECALL. I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THIS CAR AND HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

THE CAR WON'T ACCELERATE WHEN PRESSING THE GAS AND ALSO WILL JERK AND JUMP WHEN SHIFTING.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS HESITATING SEVERELY WHEN PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR. PROBLEM CONTINUED UNTIL THE CAR HAD NO POWER AND THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN WITHOUT ANY DASHBOARD GAUGE WARNINGS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, DURING RUSH HOUR. I PLACED IT IN NEUTRAL PRIOR TO COMPLETE SHUTDOWN. CUT OFF IGNITION AND RESTARTED IGNITION AND CAR STARTED AS NORMAL. TRIED TO DRIVE BUT AFTER FIVE MINUTES BEGAN TO SHUT DOWN AGAIN. PER THE DEALER DEFECT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL INJECTION SENSORS. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A CATASTROPHIC EVENT. *TR
