| Description of the problem | I drive a lot. I noticed that when driving on hot days 80+ on long drives 1 hour+ on the interstate, my cars power and rpms basically shut down. This happened multiple times starting around 50k miles. The transmission overheated and put the car into a safety mode. The transmission overheated due to a manufacturing issue. That would be, nissan failing to proper equip the coolant system on the transmission. This failure in safely manufacturing the transmission to run properly has required on multiple occasions for me to pull over on the interstate, turn my car off, and wait 20 minutes or more for the transmission to cool down. This only happens on long drives on hot days where my personal safety is higher risked. |
