| Description of the problem | I've owned this vehicle for 2 1/2 years now and every time i drive home from los angeles my transmission has acted up. I don't work, so it's only driven there occasionally which has helped it last this long. Now the tranny is overheating and can't be driven uphill without it failing to get me home which is almost completely uphill for an hour. Even from bakersfield it is overheating now which it didn't do before and this has been an ongoing problem with their cvt transmissions and there should have been a recall on them with a change to atf instead. It says there is a recall for my year, but nissan. Com says no.. What can i do? |
