| Description of the problem | At 20k miles in our 2015 nissan murano, we experienced the car chugging at speeds under 15mph, turning a corner, accelerating from a stop. The chugging was followed by engine revving. This was followed 2 days later by complete failure while driving at highway speeds. The car would not accelerate at all. It had to be towed to the dealership. The service engine light came on after the engine failed. Nissan cannot determine a cause and is replacing the transmission |
