Description of the problem | Purchased a new 2010 nissan maxima. This past weekend, 4-3-11 while traveling engine developed a loud sound like metal to metal grinding or loud muffler. Car taken to the dealership to have checked, has been there for 4 days and yesterday we were informed that the transmission needed replaced. Extremely low mileage on this model & no excuse for this transmission to be bad already! It appears there have been other reports of transmissions going bad in the nissan maxima, can this be investigated?? |
