Description of the problem | Purchased this crossover on 12/14/2012. Loss of power has occurred twice while accelerating from between 15-30mph while accelerator was depressed. When i tried to floor the accelerator, the rpm's increased but the cvt did not engage. Had to remove foot from accelerator then reapply for the cvt to re-engage. Called nissan consumer affairs on 5-31-13 who said my vin is not part of any updates/recalls for this issue. Said to take the car to the dealership for evaluation. Additionally, i have experienced the 'judder/shutter' about 3-4 times as we'll at highway speeds and in the city. I have read on some discussion boards that a 'fix/part' is in the works for late june. |
