Description of the problem	2 weeks back i was driving and suddenly car slowed down. The rpm was very high but the speed was around 20mph. Looked like transmission stuck at lower gear. Last week i was driving about 100ft of uphill and it could not tow. Only one person and lost power in gas. No matter how much i pressed the gas, the rpm was low and could not pull car uphill. Yesterday my check engine light came on and today my dealer says there is problem with transmission. Something inside the transmission needs to be replaced. Recently less than year ago, they replaced few things which was under power train warranty. Now i have 63k and out of warranty. The total cost is about $1300. 00. How can such a reputed brand car have so many transmission problems within a year? This is my first and last nissan.
