Description of the problem | Rpm drops suddenly from 1200rpm to 800rpm in 20-30mph speed level and vehicle bounces with bang sounds at transmission area. When i feel car loosening the power at low speed driving by dropping rpm gauge, i have to press brake or accelerator to keep vehicle's rpm safe level to run the car. This is very nervous thing. This problem have happened since middle of march and went to car dealer to check this point. But they said no problem in my car. I will visit again next week for this issue. I found many of cases this in nissan altima forum and other sites, all owner complained about this but nissan did not reply any yet for this. This is a major problem related with safety issue.
