Description of the problem	My 2013 nissan altima, which was purchased new has had issues with the cvt transmission since it was purchased. In 9/2014 at 42k miles the transmission failed and was replaced. Now in 9/2017 i am being told by nissan that the transmission that was replaced by them in 2014 is also bad and needs to be replaced at a cost to me of $4,100. 00. Who can afford a $4,100 repair on a vehicle that is still being paid for monthly, and why is it the consumer's fault that nissan na is making and selling faulty, unsafe products? Nissan na knows of the ongoing issues with these cvt transmissions, but choses to nothing to rectify the issues. My vehicle will not pull and makes a whining noise while i am driving. This it the same issue that occurred in 2014. While i was in motion on a major interstate the vehicle began to lose power, spudder and jerk, and dropped down to about 10-15 mph. It was a horrifying experience to be in the middle of the interstate traveling at 60 mph, and all of a sudden start to lose speed. I was finally able to get the vehicle to the shoulder safely. These vehicles are unsafe to be driven. I am in total disbelief that none of the agencies charged with the protection of consumers safety and ethical treatment , will or has gotten involved to force nissan to stop endangering the well being of those of us who drive these vehicles. I am a loyal nissan owner, who has owned 2 other nissan vehicles. In fact, i currently own a 1995 nissan maxima that has never had a transmission issue. How can a 22 year old car still drive perfectly and a 2013 need 2 transmission replacements. Someone needs to hold nissan accountable for their actions and treatment of consumers, as well as their blatant disregard for the safety of those of us who drive and transport passengers in their vehicles everyday.
