Not 2 years yet of ownership and my car decides to not accelerate on me. I would have to floor it to get it to finally kick in and drive until I stopped at the next light. There were no warning lights or anything letting me know of any problems. Had 2 near collisions with my family in the car trying to get my car to the dealer to have it checked out. Dealer thought it was transmission and alternator but upon warranty rep diagnosing vehicle, it was decided that it needed a new alternator. Was without my vehicle for almost 3 days but put in a rental from their dealer which wasn't any better with a constant noise while driving. A couple of months later the same thing happened again as I was getting on the freeway after work with my son. Had to get off and drive to the dealer. Apparently, they fixed the wrong thing. A few days after picking up my vehicle from getting the check engine light fixed, the check engine light went on again. Didn't note anything major while driving but was just awful having to take back the vehicle when I had just picked it up literally 2-3 days before. The dealer kept my vehicle through the holidays and it took them 3 days to determine what was wrong with it. I was finally told that I needed a throttle chamber replaced. Was never told what the part was responsible for doing and why it wasn't found when they had it previously. Still not 2 years of owning the vehicle. Personally, too many issues with my 2013 Altima vehicle in less than 2 years and Nissan consumer affairs keeps washing their hands of any defect or lemon law. These things which I have experienced are not little or minor by no means and have endangered myself and my family, especially the incidents with the alternator and the mas sensor. Need someone with common sense and a true feeling of caring for their customer's safety to replace my vehicle before something worse happens.

Thank you.
Transmission shudders during acceleration, generally between 1st and 2nd gear thus hesitation occurs when entering higher speed lanes. (I. E. A momentary hesitation in power during acceleration).
I have these issues everyday driving this car. Shuttering at low rpm when accelerating or decelerating, noticeable delay in gears shifting when shuttering is occurring between 1200 and 1800 rpm. Rpm's increase rapidly(sharp spike) when car is going down hill but does not allow the car to gain speed. The ramping of rpm's is loud and resembles when you hit gas to accelerate to enter a highway only you are not getting the acceleration in speed. Also coming up hill the car gives off a burning smell. I have not located the source of the burning smell and it goes away after going back to flatter terrain for awhile. The smell lingers enough to cause concern.
Occurrence has happened 8 times while driving. The vehicle shudders which leaves about 4 seconds of no throttle response. A loud noise is heard from the transmission area, the vehicle jerks hard and the rpms drop as well. Usually occurs when driving 25-35 mph while slowing down and/or turning.
Hello I purchase a 2013 Nissan Altima in may of 2013 with 20 miles on it. . This year in April of 2014 I starting have problem with the transmission. I was on the crescent city bridge coming home from work with alot of traffic my car all of a suddenly just slowed down and will not pick up speed I push the accelerator all the way to the floor and the car still will not pick up speed. I than took it to Nissan and they had it for a day called me to come get it said they restarted the transmission. . Okay. After a week later it happen again on 5-14-14 again they kept it for another day and called me to come get it. . I asked them were they sure it want do it again because I was scared it will get me in a car accident and hurt some one. . The man at Nissan said everything was okay. . So okay again it happen to me again with my son and grandson in the car this time. Again slowed down and will not pick up speed on the bridge causing cars to blow at me like I just stoped on top of the bridge. Again I took it to Nissan again on the 5-20-14 they than keep it and put me in a rental for 2 days. They again said they fixed the problem. So I go to get my car and yes again it happen again. . So the man at Nissan said wad car was still under warranty but wanted me to give them $240. 00 for something that was still underwarranty so I am still stuck wit this problem. What do I do next. Wait til someone get killed or hury in this car. . I dont understand whats next. So I hope this help me out before its to late.
