| Description of the problem | My 2011 nissan cube was being driven to work on the interstate. I pressed on the gas and the car did not move, all of a sudden it lurched forward almost causing me to rear end the vehicle in front of me. I took it to the dealership and i was told i needed a new transmission on a 2011? The car is barely four years old. It is outside of warranty and it is costing me $3700. 00. After researching, i see that they have had problems with these transmissions and have extended warranties up to the 2010 models. It is a definite safety issue and needs to be looked into. |
