Description of the problem	The issue happened multiple times but seems to happen more, the longer the vehicle is running. The first time i was waiting in a parking lot with the air condition running. I was leaving the parking lot and the vehicle paused and lost accelertion power for a few seconds and started going. I though it was an issue with the air condition so i turned off the air condition to see if it would happen again. When i got to a stop light and started to accelerate it paused again then accelerated. The pause seems to be from 5 to 10 seconds before the car would move. The longer the car was running the more it happened. At this time the check engine light was not on. On shorter distances the problem would not start but on long distances or on acceleration, the pause would continue. Finally the check engine light came on and i went to auto zone to get the code checked. It was a p0776 code,"pressure control solenoid b performance or stuck off" . I finally took it to the dealership to get the issue checked and they stated that the transmission would need to be replaced for $6000 on a 3 year old car with only 74000 miles. Problems 1. Lost acceleration for a few seconds before the vehicle will accelerate again 2. Completely lost acceleration and could not move and a hill. 3. Lost acceleration on the freeway and barely made to the side to turn off the car. Seeing the issues for the nissan altima and the complaints about the transmission, nissan needs to take responsibility for a transmission they know has problems and repair the issue. They updated the warranty up to 2016 but not the 2017 or 2018 models that still have issues, using the same transmission as the 2016 models. I will not be buying another nissan again because of their knowledge of the issue and not correcting it.
