| Description of the problem | While starting from a stop, the car will not accelerate for 5-10 seconds. This is dangerous in intersections and when pulling into traffic. First experienced problem at 98k and took to dealer. Dealer could not diagnose or recreate problem. No check engine lights indicated. This problem has continued intermittenly and is now happening on a regular basis. At 121k, took to dealer even though no service lights on and was told the cvt transmission needs to be replaced. As well, the motor mounts and front bushing control arms need to be replaced. All 3 of these items are reported by other owners. Cvt was offered to owners with 2003-2010 models; however, the same issue is happening in later models, including my 2012. Nissan needs to recall these years as well. |
