Description of the problem | I am having trouble with the 2013 nissan pathfinder's transmission that i purchased in january 2013. I have approximately 2,800 miles on my vehicle at this time, september 2013. Nissan is replacing the transmission at this time. The problem that occurred was when the vehicle would shift around 25-30 mph and/or between 40-45, the vehicle would shudder and also give the noise of "running over a rumble strip." i believe nissan should recall this transmission and replace it with a "fixed" transmission. I also believe nissan should us of those who have these vehicles a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty on the transmission, if not a "lifetime" warranty, or they should return our money and take the vehicles back! We have purchased a "lemon" in my opinion and we should not have to forfeit $35,000-$48,000 (depending on the vehicle a person purchased) of our hard-earned money to nissan. Our vehicles are basically not worth any of the money we paid for them. Who would want one? Do you want to buy my vehicle from me? I'll sell it to you. Thank you! |
