| Description of the problem | I purchased vehicle in 2014 and i have had all required maintenance performed. I'm not at 71k miles and have been experiencing abrupt jerking while driving. Nissan has a recall to reprogram the cvt. However, they offered extended warranties to few customers and not all of us. This is an ongoing complaint regarding the cvt and the enormous amount of money consumers have paid... Not to mention the inevitable safety risk. Something has to be done and nissan should be held responsible. I have an appointment on monday regarding the recall... Which they did not inform me about until i called about my car 2 days ago. Not to mention another recall for the airbag, that i found out about online. They are not communicating with their customers at all. |
