Description of the problem | When i start my car it makes a rattling sound as if something is hitting the ground. After i drive for almost 45 mins on highway my car speed will all of a sudden come down from 70 mph to 20 mph and then it wont accelerate even. I was about to be hit by a truck on the highway, but somehow i managed to move the car in the buffer. I stood there for 20 - 30 mins and drove again, it was somehow moving. Also if i am uphill the car wont move it will tend to go back. When i tried to accelerate the rpm was reaching till 4 or more, but the car will not move at all. Another incident happened was i was waiting at a red signal. I was the first one in the line, as the signal became green, i removed my legs from brake, the car wont move at all. Even tried to accelerate it somehow was able to reach only till the center of the signal when the signal changed to red. I was in a panic situation, i somehow dragged it to the other side. All this happened only within 2 weeks i bought the car from a nissan dealer (it was an used car). I took it to the delaer for inspection, they checked my car and gave me error code p0744 (torque converter) and said it can be resolved only by changing the complete transmission and would cost around 5400 dollars. When i asked why they didn't check during safety check in first place before selling the car, they gave me an answer like they cannot find issues in car until its driven on road. Not sure what kind of safety checks the dealers perform then. I could have met with an accident due to this. When i asked them for fixing this they said i should have bought a warranty and its my fault i didn't buy a warranty, and they gave me a car as-is. I told them it was not the question about giving me a car as-is, i wanted to know what kind of security testing they do before giving a car, when they gave as is why they didn't mention about such issues. Please help |
