Description of the problem | While driving, the car started not to shift well when changing gears. I've noticed on the highway and on the city roads. I took it to the dealer within that week and they said it was my transmission and that it will cost over $3000 to fix. When i purchased the car 2 years ago, i also purchased a bumper to bumper warranty that included the transmission. I did not have the paperwork with me so i had to go home to look for it. Once i found it, i called and sent the copy directly to the dealer. They called me the following day saying my warranty covers everything except intermix ingrid which was exactly what it was. I spent extra money to make sure if anything happens to my car i could get it fixed with the warranty. They told me they couldn't do anything and to fix it i must pay the $3000. I had my car for 2 years and it only has 75,000 mikes and now my transmission goes out? I researched what intermix ingrid is and found out i'm not the only one with this problem??! Nissan isn't taking responsibility and instead charging us all $3000+ to get the problem that everyone is having fixed. There should be a recall or the warranty should cover this problem. Nissan should not be making a profit on an issue they are aware and not trying to notify people about. |
