| Description of the problem | My 2005 nissan maxima just started shifting hard between 1st and second. I have 97,000 miles on it, but i see that others are having the exact same issue i am. If this car was shipped with a defect that seems to occur for most right after the warranty has expired, then nissan should recall these cars and fix them. I have always taken great care of this car and do not drive it recklessly. There is no reason the transmission should have problems. |
