| Description of the problem | Car would not switch gears. It staid in 1st or 2nd and rpm went to red as i pulled away from my parking spot. Transmission failure at 105,000 miles. Cost of repairs: $4,000. 00. After research on line, found out nissan never recalled the vehicle but offered extended co-payment warranty up to 100,000 miles to avoid fixing problem as the failure usually occurs at around 100,000 miles and above. Mine was at 105k. These cars needed to be recalled and now i'm paying $4,000. 00 to fix a known defect that nissan got away with not taking full responsibility to repair. |
