Description of the problem	It occurred to me in july 2010. Car was 7 months old with mileage of ~7,000 km. There was a problem with acceleration - with acceleration pedal fully depressed engine was revving up to ~2,200 rpm and car barely accelerated like it was slippage in the transmission. Switching to sport or manual modes was not effective. There is "high fluid temperature protection mode" described in manual, but there is no warning light/chime that transmission enters this mode. Driver not being aware of very limited acceleration can find himself in very dangerous situation leading to fatal accident, e. G. When pulling out in heavy traffic. It occurred several times, never any warning light was on. Finally transmission was replaced, but until now (january 2011) nissan did not admit that there is a problem and did not take any preventive action.
