| Description of the problem | My transmission started jerking with a loud bang sound upon shifting gears and upon slowing down to a stop. It began to slip into neutral while in the drive mode causing the rpms to increase and the car will not move. It jerks back into drive until the next stop or slowing down and starts the problem over again. I have taken the car into a transmission repair shop, which states it needs to be replaced. I have noticed many complaints from nissan customers with the same year, make and model. |
