Description of the problem	Vehicle's transmission causes engine to shut off while driving and at idle (while waiting for a traffic light). Also causes violent shaking when accelerating. Nissan has a "recall" to reprogram the transmission module stating that it it is not done transmission damage will happen. However was never notified and it seems to appear this notice came out only in the last 2 years. Meaning nissan knows the transmission is being damaged. Brought the car into the dealership and they told menit needed a new transmission ($4400). Called nissan of north america where they decided to deny any claim to replace the tranmission... Even though as i previously stated they knew this issue was causing damage to the transmission. Have tried to reach back out to nissan and had to leave a message asking my "rep" to call me back the next day.... Which she never did of course.
