Nissan Altima Power Train Safety Report | Dec 24, 2012
Reported on Dec 24, 2012
| VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FIVE TIMES FOR DIFFERENT THINGS IN LESS THAN 2 MONTHS. MAIN PROBLEM REPORTED EACH TIME IN SERVICE IS MY TRANSMISSION. BETWEEN 20-50 MPH AND 1000-2500 RPM THE CAR WILL VIOLENTLY SHAKE AND LOSE POWER. I HAVE TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL HARDER TO GET THE CAR TO STOP SHUDDERING AND PICK UP ACCELERATION. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN INVOLVED IN TOW REAR END COLLISIONS B/C OF THE LOSE OF POWER AND SHUDDERING. NISSAN STATES THAT I MUST WAIT FOR A REPROGRAMMING FIX. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. IN THE MEANTIME I HAVE TO SACRIFICE MY SAFETY? TOTALLY NOT ACCEPTABLE. I HAVE OWNED 3 PREVIOUS NISSAN PRODUCTS WITH NO PROBLEMS. *TR | |
