Description of the problem	Transmission has failed abruptly in nissan altima 2013 at 79k miles almost ending in a collision in mid intersection. Nissan says it's past warranty and will not replace. I'm on the hook for $3800 for a faulty transmission that could've caused a deadly accident. My kids were in the car at the time. Even though other years have had warranties extended bc of the faulty cvt transmission, mine is not included. They said i could not appeal the decision. After talking to their consumer affairs division, i was told that bc i didn't have my car serviced at nissan, i am basically not a loyal customer. This is my 4th nissan. Obviously, i've been loyal. I chose to have regular oil changes, tire rotations, etc done somewhere closer as the dealership was difficult to get to all these years. I find their nonchalance in dealing w/their horrible transmission to be infuriating and i would like some answers. Thank you. Updated 12/8/2017*js
