Defect
Under certain conditions, the vehicle may not slow down after you release the accelerator pedal.

If this happens, and you don't apply the brakes, the vehicle may not slow down as expected.

Remedy
Nissan will notify owners by mail and advise you to bring your vehicle to a dealership to reprogram the vehicle control module (VCM).
