Description of the problem	We bought a new nissan pathfinder 2013 in june 2013 - we love the car but we started to experience hesitation upon acceleration in certain situations. We reported it to the dealer during a visit to replace a warranty issue, the dealer said there was nothing wrong but they were able to replicate it once. Later on when we noticed it again, we took the car back and this time it was at the dealer for 8 days. We experience hesitation, slight jerking with the car when driving on slow speed. Well, a week after we took it back from the dealer while driving back home we experienced this violent jerking and hesitation, the car loses power, picks up, loses power and so on for a stretch of 40-50 feet on the road or for around 4-5 second of driving. Myself, my husband and two kids were shocked when we felt the car jerking and how noticeable it was! It's not something i experience every time i drive the car, but this is not a safe drive. In this one particular incident, i didn't know what to do, press on the gas peddle or slam the break! If i was driving in heavy traffic (which i do for my commute every day) or driving on icy roads, i would have probably ended up in an accident. The dealer seems to know the problem exists, but insists on a computer reading while the car is experiencing the issue and states that if there are no lights on from the computer or no alerts from the sensors then the car is functioning fine. Honestly, i'm not comfortable driving this car anymore. What if this problem has no sensor to monitor it? This is really scary that i'm driving a car that i thought was safe when i bought it, even worse, with my kids in the car, i feel like i'm driving at the mercy of the car and the cvt and hoping that when it randomly happens again, i'm not driving near a lot of cars and ending up in an accident!
