| Description of the problem | My murano was driven by my wife in our neighborhood when suddenly the suv would not accelerate and stopped in the middle the street blocking traffic on both sides. We turned the car off several times and restarted before able to accelerate. I had suv towed to local dealer where it was determined that cvt transmission was destroyed. I has serviced transmission fluid 3 times since purchase with 139,800 miles. After researching the nissan cvt{constant variable transmission}, we are not the first to have problems. I may be the first with a 2010 murano. I am fearful of this vehicle after it $5000 repair{out of pocket}, especially if on a busy interstate in chicago area due to sudden lose of acceleration. |
