 Description of the problemVehicle has a shudder when decelerating from 65 to 60. Has progressively been happening more often. In addition to the shudder at higher speeds, it now has started to shudder and lack response at lower speeds at random. The gas mileage has dropped at least 5 mpg since all of these issues started. I have taken to nissan service twice for the same issue. Both times the problem "couldn't be duplicated" and there isn't a code that shows anything wrong on computer diagnostics. All searches for these issues in relation to a 2013 nissan altima 3. 5 sl, return numerous complaints about the same problems and no resolution. Current mileage is15,000. I have been told to keep all reports from service so if there is a problem later i have documentation that it has been an ongoing issue. It appears nissan should get in front of this problem quickly as it is not leaving a good mark on their name to have such new vehicles with this drastic of a problem.
