| Description of the problem | On saturday, my check engine light went on. I went to a car shop late afternoon at and they read codes for 2 issue w/transmission and 1 code for abs. The car is stalls at stoplights, reverse does not work at all times excessive exhaust was coming out of tailpipes. On highway, the tachometer moves fast when adding acceleration and power delays. When i go to the wyler dealerships in cincinnati, ohio, they have 2-3 month delay on transmission work and others in the area (wyler eastgate) are having the same issue with a backlog of transmission work - this seems to be a brand issue with the cvt transmission and when all these people are getting work done on their nissan transmissions at the dealerships this is definitely a quality issue. I hope you request a recall on these transmissions or provide a rebate to get this work done at the dealerships for the nissan customers. I have called nissan customer service and spoke w/ adam he provides me with a case #33804054 (very pleasant fellow) once i can get into a dealership for service this week (wyler of cincinnati) in colerain. Thank you |
