FROM A STAND STILL, WHEN ACCELERATING TO ENTER INTO TRAFFIC. DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, THE TRUCK ONLY MOVES INTO TRAFFIC BUT THEN THE TRUCK FAILS TO ACCELERATE. THERE IS A FLAT SPOT. NO ACCELERATION AT TIMES. I HAVE TO "PEDAL" THE ACCELERATOR TO TRY TO GET THE TRUCK TO MOVE. MEANWHILE I AM STUCK WITH TRAFFIC RAPIDLY APPROACHING BECAUSE I CANNOT GET OUT OF THE WAY. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND ALWAYS AT THE WORST TIME LIKE WHEN TRYING TO ENTER ONTO A HIGHWAY. I HAVE HAD NEAR COLLISIONS TWICE DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN DEALER HAS FOUND NOTHING. THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM WHEN I TAKE IT TO THEM.
