| Description of the problem | My transmission began to slip, slowly, and within 1k miles i needed a new transmission in my 04 nissan maxima. The warranty had just expired leaving me to pay for the entire thing, 3,450 dollar out of pocket. I've done some research and this seems to be a common issues among this vehicle. I do not feel comfortable driving in my car, even though the transmission has been replaced, but since i just spend over 3k to fix my car, i have no money to purchase a new one. Again, my car is still not completely fixed and i don't feel comfortable driving in this vehicle and also i have little to no confidence that nissan really cares that myself and thousands others are having the same concerns. |
