| THE CVT TRANSMISSION CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SHUTTER AND VIBRATE AT LIGHT ACCELERATION BETWEEN 1200-2000 RPMS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS DIVISION 800-343-6913 EXT457206 SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE CASE #'S [XXX] AND [XXX] ON TWO SEPARATE VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD REPEATEDLY THAT NISSAN ENGINEERS ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND ARE WORKING ON A SOLUTION. THERE ARE MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE ON SEVERAL WEB SITES. I HAVE HEARD NOTHING SINCE 3/26/2013 FROM NISSAN IN REGARDS TO MY COMPLAINT. I HAVE HAD MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE AT ORLAND PARK NISAN, ORLAND PARK, IL AND HAVE ALSO CONTACTED THEM NUMEROUS TIMES TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY REPAIR THAT HAS BEEN ISSUED TO RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM. THEY ACKNOWLEDGE AND ARE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. THERE ANSWER IS THEY HAVE DONE THE RECOMMENDED SERVICE BULLETINS SENT TO THEM FROM NISSAN TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE IN THE PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE AFTER PERFORMING THESE REPAIRS. NISSAN KNOWS THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE FORCED TO STAND BEHIND THE PERFORMANCE OF THEIR PRODUCT. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!
