Description of the problem	My 2013 nissan pathfinder has experienced 8 incidents of no acceleration, sometimes at critical moments, like merging from one highway to another in heavy traffic. One incident involved a semi-truck nearly rear-ending me on a flyover ramp while my pathfinder was stuck at 40 mph. It was like a funeral procession stuck behind me until i was able to get on a shoulder of the highway, after the flyover ramp. All 8 incidents have happened after the car was serviced on 2/14/17 by the nissan dealership for recall pc500 (dealing with the transmission). We had no problems with our pathfinder before the warranty/recall work was done. The car tends to get stuck in lower speeds, between about 15-40 mph. It has done this twice from a dead stop at a red light. When it finally did accelerate from the red light, it shot off like a rocket and caused us to go over a median and off the road. It does it on local streets and also on highways. The severity of the situation seems greater when it happens on the highway, however, it could be deadly on local roads as well. I am scared to turn left without an arrow for fear of it not accelerating. I have to drive differently, allowing tons of space/time to pull out of parking lots, in case it doesn't accelerate. I have all of my service records and have done everything to service the car that it requires.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
