| Description of the problem | I have been having an issue with the transmission since my car reached just over 60k miles. I've taken to the dealership numerous times and keep telling me it's not a vin number that comes up in a recall, but some of the 2012-2013 nissan altimas are getting notices for what my complaint is on my car. The nissan dealership service told me to flush the transmission that it should fix the issue, so i did that and no help with the issue. I've since taken back two more times with the same complaint and not getting any results and there is a problem with the transmission. They either tell me it's not part of the cars on recall or it's the way that transmission is, which they already agreed there was an issue when they required me to flush the transmission for the 60k miles. I've since taken my car to two other outside mechanics and they agree there is an issue, but nissan needs to repair it. I just want someone to step up and do the right thing. |
