| Description of the problem | I had my nissan juke at the dealer at 80,000 miles telling them that the rpm's were going up to about 5000 before the car could shift from 1st to 2nd and the car would randomly bog and hesitate. Did this weather going up hill or flat driving after the car had been driving for about 4 hrs. I drive for a living and drive about 5 hrs a day. The dealer took it in and had it over 3 wks after determinig that is was a transmission defect. They ordered one and the one that came in after being installed wouldn't allow the car to go over 40mph. Again defective transmission #2 and it hasn't left dealer. Finally get another a month and a half after bring it in and tell me that only warrentee left would be the remainder of my 100,000. (which gave me about 20,000 miles to hope didn't happen again) and at 97,000 just 17,000 miles on the 3rd transmission installed is it happening again. My local nissan dealership has had it this time for a month already finally determining it's defect in transmission yet again so now we wait for the ok from nissan to replace it, which i was told they were giving them a hard time because it was technically the 4th cvt automatic transmission installed on my juke in less then a year. This is crazy thank goodness my local nissan dealer is nice and i get a rental but still making payments yet again on a vehicle i don't have due to manufacture defect. I own 7 nissan's and this is the last one that i will own with the cvt transmission. I have no other problems with any of my other nissan's |
