| Description of the problem | I purchased this car in december 2017; however, in september of 2018 the malfunction light came on. I had the car diagnosed by autozone first which advised it was a transmission pressure fluid sensor. I then followed up with the nissan dealer, bommarito on 661 dunn rd in hazelwood, mo. 63042 to find out part of the transmission needs to be built, code p17f0. The car will not accelerate over 35-40 mph, and the rpms are jumping all over. The estimate of repair is 4600. 00 this car has approximately 66,500 miles on it and i bought it with approximately 49,000. This appears to be a faulty transmission, as i have had cars well over 120, 000 miles and no transmission issues. There is one more person i am aware of who had the same issue on a 2016 nissan altima. |
