Description of the problem | Car shakes at 1900 rpm (everytime you pass by 1900rpm) and when stopped at light (when you have brakes applied). This vibration can be feeled by driver & passenger and whole car shakes. I had it pointed out during the servicing/oil changes to nissan technician and all i got is "it is normal for cvt so car will vibrate". This vibration is a safety issue as on an avg i driver the car for an hour a day. And if i stop at lights for 10 minutes on an avg, then i am exposing my self to this vibration for that much time a day which is bad. Its specially bad for my legs. Nissan does not have a fix at the moment for this issue but i epxect a brand new car not to vibrate as horrible as this. My 10 year old car was much smoother then this. The overall experiance is horrible and will advise all to stay away from nissan because they are not admitting the problem and they dont have the solution for such a problem. This is a safety issue when you consider the effects on long term exposure and i feel goverment should do something about it. |
