| Description of the problem | This is the 2nd transmission that we have had in this vehicle and it started giving us issues right around the same mileage. I have contacted nissan and they will not provide any coverage. What happens is that when we are driving on longer, freeway trips the car will begin to deccelerate. Once this happens it will not accelerate past 40mph. This is happening on major interstates with speed limits of 70 mph or more. There is no warning that this is going to happen. All of a sudden the rpms drop shortly followed by the speed. Even pressing the accelerator down to the floor will not give the vehicle any more speed. This is very hazardous, especially when travelling in hilly areas as the car can and does slow down to 20 mph without the ability to accelerate. Often times this happens in the middle of nowhere so we are forced to drive at dangerously slow speeds until we can find a place to safely pull over. This has happened to us many times, often when passing another vehicle in the left lane. It has also happened at night and since we are not braking there is not indicator to the traffic around us that we are slowing down so quickly. It always happens on family vacations so we have 2 young children in the vehicle with us. It tends to happen more often in hot temperatures but it has happened when the temperature was around 25 degrees f. It has always happened on the freeway while in motion. As i said it has happened a number of times but most recently over spring break. It also happened many times with the 1st transmission which was replaced under warranty at 87000 miles. The new transmission has about 75000 miles on it but i am being told that since the mileage on the car is over 120000 miles that the cvt is no longer covered even thought it only has 75000 miles on it. |
