Description of the problem	My 2004 maxima se, reported to dealership that my transmission was not shifting from 0km to 60km mileage (159km) before my warranty expires, told that this is normal wear and tear, change car,many times returning , dealership flush transmission, but problem still there, seems to be an intermittent thing, pressure related therefore days with no problem but then problem returning, finally became fed up so demand dealership to have me speak with the nissan rep. To slove this problem. In my investigating i found that there is alot of complaint about this same exact issue and the mileage sometimes is just 60km or even lower thus proving that this problem is not mileage related but part related. Meaning that nissan has a faulty transmission which should be recalled as this is a problem for consumers especially regarding the safety of the vehicle. The car at times jolts forward with no warning a potential of hitting someone especially in the winter months, not to mention that the car can just suddenly stop working in the middle of no where, which can be deadly in minus degree weather. The dealerships only answer is to repair or replace car, because the problem started before the warranty was expired then the repairs should be taken care of ,in my opinion but according to the dealership, if you are not broken down at the side of the road then the transmission is not completely broken so nissan will not repair. This i have a problem because once the part is not performing its function then repairs should be done as it is broken, it does not have to be ceased in its complete function but as long as a part of the it has ceased then something should be done to bring the vehicle back to its function and this should not be at the cost of the consumer especially if they have purchased extended warranty which includes this part of the vehicle. Now that the vesicle has passed the kms its easy to say well one should change to another vehicle but that is not the issue.
