| Description of the problem | My wife was driving on a crowded interstate at approximately 70 mph. Vehicle suddenly decelerated to about 40 mph. No power when depressing the accelerator. Pulled over to side of highway. Stopped and restarted. Vehicle accelerated back to 70 mph then again decelerated back to 40 mph. Limped to the next rest area. Vehicle was eventually towed to our local nissan dealer. Problem was later diagnosed as a failed cvt transmission and the vehicle was deemed unsafe to drive! The transmission was subsequently replaced at a cost of $4825! I had to assume the dealer diagnosed the problem correctly. The vehicle had approximately 124500 miles. Nissan cvt transmissions are notorious for failure with some models powertrain warranty extended up to 120000 miles. Mine was not one of them! |
