| Description of the problem | When accelerating, my 2004 nissan maxima se's transmission 'bucks' when shifting between gears. This behavior occurs randomly (i. E., not all the time) and has occurred when decelerating also. There are numerous online posts about this exact behavior with owner's spending a lot of money for repairs/diagnostics that do not resolve this issue. Nissan is aware of the issue because some of these repairs have taken place at nissan service centers, and nissan consumer affairs has been contacted about this issue. Obviously, owners are looking for a recall by nissan at this point that will 100% resolve the issue. |
