| Description of the problem | While driving on the highway vehicle suddenly began experiencing problems with acceleration and began a slow shuddering or shaking. 15 minutes later the engine malfunction indicator light came and lucky for me i was already home. However began experiencing problems keeping the vehicle in gear and the vehicle hesitated to reverse. Took it immediately to the nissan dealership and was told the problem was a bad sub assembly that needed to be replaced. "nissan is aware of the problem" the tech told and they would replace the sub assembly at no cost to me as i wisely had decided to get the 150k warranty. I was hurried into a loaner -rental vehicle and told it may take over two weeks just for the sub assembly to arrive. |
