Description of the problem	When driving the car down the highway it fails to shift into the next gear. You push down on the gas pedal and the rpms go higher but the vehicle doesn't pick up in speed. It actually decreases as you are going up a hill. When i took it to a dealership, they told me that it sounds like it is the ecm and that i was [xxx] out of luck because that make/model doesn't have a recall on it. Though i found a service bulletin for technicians on how to do a ecm replacement procedure for all 2004 and later - nissan altimas. So - they know that it is a defect in the automobile. My mom has a 2015 nissan altima and it was doing the same thing and they recalled her vehicle. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
