Description of the problem | Nissan-usa has known about a cvt transmission issue with this vehichle. We purchased it used in february 2016. Leckner had the vehicle in stock when the announcement was made and did nothing to repair the issue. They sold us the vehicle without disclosing the information. Nissan now does not want to make any repairs, though the car id deemed dangerous as the engine makes sudden jerking and shuddering when accelerations. There have been at least two class action lawsuits where nissan has agreed to fix the issue or change a new engine. When calling and dealing with leckner and nissan they keep saying the issue is closed and won't do anything. |
