Description of the problem	Driving on the road at 55 mph the nissan all of a sudden would not go over 20 mph. After taking the car to the dealership, the stated we needed a new transmission. The vehicle is only 6 years old. We maintained the vehicle and followed all the guideline for maintenance. I was quiet shocked to learn that this is a common occurrence for nissan cvt transmissions. My concern is for the safety of my 21 year old son who was driving this vehicle when this happened. He was very fortunate that there was not a car behind him.
