Why Nissan Now? Technology.....

Accelerator Pedal Assembly

• The Nissan accelerator pedal assembly uses an enclosed housing which is not as susceptible to the effects of humidity.

• The friction pad in the Nissan accelerator pedal assembly, which generates pedal feedback, is made of a different material which is not as affected by moisture. Therefore our assembly cannot have the same issue that has been mentioned in the media as apparently causing problems in the vehicles involved in the recall.

• Nissan vehicles also have an electronic throttle-control system that recognizes when the brake and accelerator are depressed at the same time and automatically reduces engine power under these circumstances.

Key Start/Stop Button:

• Nissan’s Intelligent-Key system can recognize when the driver intends to turn off the engine in conditions other than Park.

• In order to turn off a Nissan vehicle equipped with Intelligent-Key, drivers may either:

• Push the Start/Stop button three times consecutively

• Press and hold the Start/Stop button for more than two seconds

Note: The engine may be turned off while the transmission is in any position, however we don’t recommend turning off the engine while the vehicle is moving. If the engine is turned off, power assist for steering and braking will be lost and it will be more difficult to steer and slow the vehicle.

Floor mats: Floor-mat design and retention methods help keep the mats in the proper place.

• The design provides adequate clearance between the mat and the accelerator pedal.

• Floor mats have nibs on the back which help prevent properly positioned floor mats from sliding on the vehicle’s carpet.

• Floor mats are specifically designed for each vehicle model to help mitigate possible interference with the pedals.
