Description of the problem | This vehicle has what has been called a cvt transmission issue. It has been well documented by hundreds of drivers across the country (all with the same problem). While driving 80 miles per hour in the fast lane the vehicle lost all power and went to 10 miles per hour in a matter of seconds, my wife was driving and we both panicked as we were on a busy highway. She started to move to the slower lanes, but had semi trucks running close behind us as well as other vehicles, we put on the emergency flashers and slowly made it across to the emergency lane, but not before we were almost in a horrible accident. We had two semis that came within a matter of 1-2 feet of hitting us. We went from 80 mph to 5 mph in a matter of seconds and then finally lost all power completely. We waited with the car off for almost 30 minutes, we started the car again and got back on the freeway, we traveled another 50 miles and the car did the same thing again!! This time we stayed in the right lane! We have had several issues since, and have had near death incidents with this vehicle. Nissan knows of this issue, it is a cvt problem with their transmission, their dealer service departments know what to do. The diagnostic code is p0744 replace the valve body on transmission. They know the issue, but will not do a recall. It cost us $1,900. The car is a death trap. My wife and i do not feel safe driving this vehicle, but we can not afford a new one. Nissan will not help our car has 94,443 miles on it, and is out of their warranty. There are hundreds of these issues reported and nissan turns their heads with this potential deadly issue. What will it take, a death to get some attention to this serious issue? Nissan needs to fix this problem. It is a repetitive issue as well. (this problem has happened numerous times) |
