Gas pedal problems 2016 Altima
Nissan Altima 2016 25000 miles
Gas pedal problem. Driving along foot on accelerator -no power -my son and husband pressed their foot all way down on the pedal does nothing. The lack of power has happened five times. Two of these times with no power to get out of the way almost caused a wreck but pedal finally engaged. They wont let me drive it. Anyone else having this problem ? If so, how did it get fixed ? This is a helpless feeling. I love my Altima runs great but have a fear of being on 75 and not having power. Only happens rarely but when it does its scary. Help ?

We have the same problem. Have spent a lot of money and time trying t get it the bottom of the Problem. We have been to our local mechanic three times and Nilsson mechanics which. Is a 4 hour drive. Nisson had our car for four days and still could not find a permanent cure. It is a very dangerous situation. We can be driving along the highway and without warning the car looses power. We have to turn the engine of and start it again. Sometimes it will start again but more than often it will take several tries before it will respond. Is it possible to get Nisson to respond to a request to have a company opinion.

That has to do with the throttle body it needs replacement and also check the maf sensor and air filter you'll have to reconfigure the new throttle body check that on YouTube hope this helps let us know how you got it done good luck. Ps I forgot also check fuel pump if you've never changed it before it may have low pressure or when it gets hot it does such I've experienced it in my peaguot 407

Cylinder missing. Code reader at auto parts store will tell which cylinder is missing. They go in order left to right 1234 looking at the emgine. Most likely it is an ignition coil. Take off cover unplug the bad coil. Loosen screw and pull it up off the plug and install the new coil. Takes 5 minutes in the auto parts store parking lot.
CommentLoss of acceleration ability
Nissan Altima 2014 Altima 71690 miles
Hi,
My Altima, when driving long distance at high speed. Continues to lose the ability to accelerate. On the interstate driving 75, when suddenly the gas pedal does nothing and I feel like I'm stuck in fifth gear with no access to torque. This does not happen at all when driving around town even if my speed is greater than 85... what is wrong and how do I fix it?
