Description of the problem | My husband and i purchased the 2013 nissan pathfinder, november 2012. We traded in our chevrolet tahoe and decided with gas prices increasing we needed a vehicle that we can save a little on. We put our trust in nissan. About 11 months after purchasing, i was leaving work and backed out of my parking space proceeded to the stop sign. At the stop sign i accelerated and it moved forward a few feet, then it made a loud noise. Before i knew it the car was on, but would not move. Would not move forward or in reverse. The good thing is i had a person behind me that noticed i had car problems and pushed the car out of the lanes of traffic. Got the car towed to nissan dealership, and they just informed us that they could not figure out why the card is not working. The transmission is going into gear, just not moving. Now their shop manager has decided to replace the entire transmission. This is one week that we have been in a rental.... Should get our car friday. Will my car ever drive the same again with a new transmission ? |
