Description of the problem	Nissan's 2014 altima cvt transmissions are not safe and should be taken out of the cars. I bought my car new in february of 2014. 1) my first transmission died nov 2016 after only 50k miles. I was at a red light and my car would not move forward, it kept dying as soon as i tried to accelerate. The car was stranded in street until a tow truck came. 2) the transmission it got replaced with does not drive smoothly - it jerks, it goes to high rpm's for no reason. When i am in rush hour traffic, it seems to have a mind of it's own: when i am braking, i feel a pull as if the car does not want to stop. Or sometimes the engine will feel like it's revving harder than i need it to (up to 4-5k rpms when going under 25mph). 3) this transmission has stalled multiple times at a red light. I will try to accelerate, and it won't move. It finally begins to go after 3-5 seconds of stalling. It is only a matter of time until it dies completely, as my previous transmission did for this car. 4) i was cruising on a side street once, going around 40-45mph, and suddenly the rpm's shoot up to 4-5 for no reason (usually cruise between 1-2). I put my foot completely off the gas, and it would not stop. It finally did after about 3-5 seconds. I do not feel safe in this car- anytime i am in the middle of an intersection waiting to make a left turn, i am wondering if my car is going to die in the middle of my turn, and if i am going to get t-boned. I've complained to my dealership multiple times (two different dealerships), and they always said nothing was wrong with it. Search online and you will see the many complains about nissan's cvt transmission. With only 65k miles on a car i bought new, we should not be having to deal with such a faulty transmission. And nissan won't do anything until it's too late, even though they know their transmissions are faulty.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
