When the gas pedal is pressed it will not go unless you punch the gas pedal and then you spin out. The dealership claims that it is a carbon build up and should be cleaned periodically, but the manual does not say anything about it being a regulat maintenace item. They claim it is but I feel if it is then it should be listed with all other maintenance items. I have pulled out several times with plenty of time to get pulled out but my accelarator would not go and I have almost been hit because of this. I feel it is a safety hazard and would like more to done. I shouldn't have to pay $135 for something to be cleaned when it is not in my manual. I have checked with other oweners and they haven't had this problem. One person who has a Chevy mailbu had this problem but Chevrolet covered his under warranty. If it is a maintenance item then Nissan should have to publish in the their owners manual.

Accelerator pedal sticks - this happens after the brake is applied and I try to accelerate, thus causing the van to stall in the intersection and then take off quickly and also occurs if I relaese my foot from the accelerator to slow down gradually, and then reapply it, the pedal again sticks. This started in March and then went away for a month and has been occuring daily - sometimes 4 or 5 times in one commute. This has nearly caused a few fatal accidents when the van stalled in a busy intersection or while I was turning into the driveway and gas pedal stuck causing crosstraffic to screech to a halt. Have almost been hit from behind because the van does not accelearte after a red light - have to pump it or hold it down before it releases. I called dealer and he said it was "normal" and part of throttle problem, but this started when the van had only 20000 miles on
