Description of the problem	I own a 2013 nissan altima which i purchased new. The car has approximately 90k miles on it now. About 5 months ago the car beginning dying when putting it in gear and/or stopping while driving. The occurrence of the problem gradually increased until we were forced to take it to a nissan dealer. The dealer diagnosed the car as needing a transmission reprogram. I paid the dealer to perform the work. Two weeks later when putting the car into drive or reverse the car would not move. We had the car towed to the dealer, whom took over a week to diagnose informing us it needed a new cvt. The dealer informed me that the new cvt had been upgraded with heavier duty parts including a heavier transmission cooler as these units were prone to overheating, which indicates (in my opinion) a design flaw. The dealer now wants $3. 7k to replace the cvt with a new unit that only has a 1 year or 12k warranty.
