Description of the problem	I had my transmission flushed at approx. 52k miles on 2/23/2019. In april 2019, the transmission begin having issues. Rpms would ride high; however, transmission would not up-shift. Occurred despite accelerator pressed to the floor. When releasing the accelerator and pressing again, the transmission would jerk and begin to up-shift. Issue is intermittent. Can occur when taking off after stopping at an intersection, and suddenly when smoothly accelerating upon entering freeways. Having safety concerns, i took the vehicle to nissan and explained the issue as noted above on 5/8/2019. Despite telling josh kern the issue was the transmission, i later discovered he recorded the issue as "... The throttle wasn't responsive." he called saying the car was driven 60 miles and the issue was resolved by performing a "idle relearn" and "self learn" software update. Because of this, the vehicle now idled very high. After driving it a few days, the issue occurred again. Reviewing the service doc, i realized the vehicle was only driven 1 mile and not the 60 miles. It also had notes from the technician that "issue could not be duplicated." i returned to nissan to speak to the service manager, but he was not available. While there, i requested all hard-copies of work performed. On one page was written notes about erasing codes, mention of the trans., engine & iacv-aac, ecm on faded print-out of codes. Made other attempts to contact manager with no success. In aug. 2019, the dealership gm put me in contact w steve zani (asst. Serv. Mgr.) he was very helpful, but was unable to duplicate issue. High idle from update seems to be masking issue frequency. Called niss con affairs-case36982668. Renee' was no help. Refused to update case or call dealership. Had my name wrong, elusive and short on phone. Worried issue not given proper credence; despite defect and safety concerns.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
