I did have throttle lag in my 2011 like the OP. It was bad enough where I did not trust the car to make a left turn into oncoming traffic unless there was sufficient space, much to the consternation of people lined up behind me. Gunning out into traffic from a parking lot or from a stop sign was also a no-no. It was also embarrassing that I did not have punch off of the line.

As Jsolo indicated, there have been posts on this topic, not only in this forum, but others as well.<O</O

I had the tranny reprogrammed, which so far has rectified the lag issue, plus others I was having as well.<O</O

Good luck on the class action gig. I know that Infiniti tried to cover up my problem by erasing an error code which possibly pointed to the TCM. Have there been other cover-ups as well? <O</O

YES!! Let's sue someone. I want free money. It's my right as a Merican.

 

'Murica!

 

Ur bank account is not big enough even if ur right. Welcome back to Earth.

 

Class Action lawsuits cost the mfr a lot of money, but in terms of payout they primarily make money for the lawyers. No way would I ever join or help in any way with a C.A.

 

society has gotten so sue happy, it's starting to affect everything up to and including healthcare.

personally, just sounds like what kid so eloquently pointed out above....free money, let's sue someone cuz it's dat merican way

 

Fixed it for you.

 

Buy a sprint booster or get an UpRev tune, then call it a day.

 

IF you have a 7AT, it has been rectified, see your dealer.

 

I want to sue too!!
I bought a 2012 Yaris as a DD, this POS doesnt have enough power either!!

 

You do know there are MANY cars that have a much worse
acceleration problem than the G don't you..............If you pulled out in front of a car hoping to punch it then it will be considered your fault not the cars. So all being said if you know you have this issue then why are you pulling out in front of cars hoping to hammer on it to get going in front of them? Why not just be safe? Wait till it is clear!

 

I may be wrong but I've experienced something similar to this but I don't think it is throttle lag. When in Auto DS mode, I've had the car downshift into first gear at a really bad time similar to his explanation, at a slow yielding intersection. It hardly caused an accident but it did freak me out a little because when I hit the gas it took a couple seconds to actually start accelerating again.

Could be completely wrong and not related but I figured I would enter my opinion.

 

I have experienced this but come on, to take it to the point of suing is extreme. Someone is looking for a free paycheck. Infiniti also released a TSB for this in the 08/09 models. Go to your dealer and tell them your problem and they will re-flash the car. Good luck with your suing/supporting lawyers money spending habbit goals of 2013.

 

^ I like that idea to go and re-flash the car. You might want to do that. I think if you go through w/ this, that your not going to get any were on this and your just throwing money to the ppl trying to fight for your case.

 

I had the reflash done by the dealer and no issues; the car rockets away like... well... a rocket! I don't pull out in front of other cars and gun it trying to show off my 328hp. You shouldn't either, you'll end up dead this way.
Don't sue Nissan, go to driving school and chill out behind the wheel. If that still doesn't help then sell the car and move on with your life.
