| Description of the problem | When this issue first happened i was proceeding to leave the gas station from getting gas and my car just shut off right before i was about to enter onto the highway. I took it to the dealership and they couldn't get it to shut off on them and sent me home. The next time i started to get ready for my class and went to crank my car, it crank, but once i put it into drive it shut off. I had to get it towed to nissan if vidalia and it took them 3 days to tell me that i needed a new transmission! I have not even had this car a year yet and already needing a new transmission. I purchased my car from nissan of south morrow and they failed to inform me about an extended warranty so now i'm stuck with a car but cannot drive it because i do not have $3,600 to have it replaced. This is ridiculous and nissan needs to put a recall on all cvt transmissions because this is very unsafe!!! They've did nothing to help me with my situation and i will never do business with them again!!!! |
