Description of the problem	Purchased this vehicle in march 2013. Since purchase experienced numerous times transmission problem that manifests itself as vehicle shuddering when trying to make turn at low speed or from complete stop. This also happens when trying to accelerate to go onto highway, vehicle would shudder and can not accelerate until foot is taken from the gas pedal and gas pedal pressed again. I brought this to nissan usa attention and spoke to the dealership several times. Vehicle was evaluated at the dealership service center and we were notified that the problem can not be duplicated. I tried to explain to the technician that in order to duplicate problem this vehicle have to be driven for several days if not weeks on daily basis since sometimes problem happens every three days, sometimes it happens three, four times a day. I have a feeling nissan is trying to hide serious flaws in the design of their new pathfinder and it is simply refusing to take care of problems. This is serious safety issue and i hope we will not wait until someone dies in the accident until nissan takes necessary steps to fix their cvt transmission.
