Description of the problem | I was driving the vehicle at approximately 43 mph; when i applied the brakes (without stopping) and began to accelerate again the vehicle shuddered for about 3 seconds. This same occurrence happened periodically again over a 2-day period. I took the vehicle to sheehy nissan (short pump) in richmond and was advised that the transmission need to be replaced and that nissan was sending another transmission for the dealership to install. My wife called nissan north america regarding the vehicle and was given a case number; i also contacted nissan by email about two days later as we had not received a call back and filed a compliant asking that me vehicle either be replaced with another brand new 2013 nissan pathfinder sl or that the organization refund my money. In the end nissan consumer affairs refused to honor my request and advised that they would only repair the vehicle. |
