Description of the problem | August 2nd 2016 i bought my car from farris mottor in jefferson city tn in oct/nov 2016 to deliver mail in. The conversion kit put into my car did not modify the engine or transmission in any way therefore my warranty was not voided. The car ran well for about 6 months then one day on route in a level ground neighborhood i was driving down the street servicing the mailboxes, i stopped at one and when i went to speed back up my car wouldn't accelerate. I had the gas pedal to the floor and the car would barely move. The rpm's didn't even rev up, it was just silence, then after a few seconds my car would pick up and move. This went on for the rest of the day and everyday after that. It is worse when going up hill, instead of it picking up and moving after a few seconds it doesn't move and instead starts to roll backwards. All this also happens in reverse and still no rpm's. So i took it to farris about three times and got nothing out of them, and when i took it to the nissan dealership they said according to my warranty any work to the vehicle or even doing diagnostics would have to be approved by farris which they did not. So i went back to farris again and had a tech ride with me so i could replicate what was going on. He observed and agreed with what was happening but said he didn't believe it was the transmission but it had something to do with the engine. And he also seemed to blame my profession for the way the car is acting due to the way i drive but if that were true then everyone at the post office would be having the same problems with their vehicles, sorry but that's not the case. Please look into this because my car is my main priority to take care of my family. Here is a link of other people who have had this problem with this vehicle. Http://m. Carcomplaints.
