At low speeds after startup, the car automatically shifts from drive into neutral. The car will be locked in neutral, not letting you put it in park, drive, or reverse. To get the car back into drive, you must come to a complete stop, turn the car off, back on, and floor the accelerator. Failure to floor the accelerator will lead to the car getting stuck in neutral again. I have pulled out into traffic on numerous occasions and had the car die in the middle of the road, forcing me to come to a stop and fully turn it back on, sometimes multiple times. No warning messages appear.

When I got in the vehicle after work on 11-22-23, it displayed a “EV System” error alert and “Power Reduced” alert. The vehicle would only accelerate extremely slowly and would only go about 25 MPH. Trying to go up hill to my house it would only go maximum of 10 MPH. I barely made it home. I left it at the dealership the next day (which was a national holiday) and they examined the car on 11-24-23 but could not find anything wrong. I have been told to drive the car and bring it back if the message occurs again. My EV battery seems to be no longer holding a good charge at this time. I am concerned about the safety of the vehicle at this time.
The car spontaneously shut down. "EV OFF" displayed on the screen. I was in the middle of the road and unable to turn on the car or shift into neutral to push it off the road. I had to wait over an hour for a tow while in the road. This appears to be an increasing problem as many owners are reporting the same issue on the Nissan…
