Description of the problem	I have a 2013 nissan altima that i purchased one year ago. When i purchased the vehicle it only had 25,000 miles on it and was still under warranty. About one month ago my car just died in the middle of the highway while i was driving it and i had to merge off of the highway before i was hit by other vehicles. The car would start right up after i turned it off, but not matter how hard i pressed on the gas peddle it would just sit there. I had the car towed to the local nissan dealership and i was told that my cvt transmission had failed. I only have 75,000 miles on the car, but of course, the warranty was up at 60,000 miles. The service center at nissan suggested that i call corporate nissan and see if there was anything that they can do to help. I called nissan and after weeks of playing phone tag with the representative handling my case, i was told that there wasn't anything that they would do to help me. I proceeded to ask her if she was aware that there is a class action law suit again nissan regarding their faulty cvt transmissions and she said "yes" and that they would rather me sue them than just replace their faulty transmission. Needless to say, i am extremely disappointed with nissan and will never buy another one of their vehicles again. The total cost to replace my transmission was $5,000. 00, plus a month and a half of rental car charges.
