MY CAR IS A 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH ONLY 67,000 MILES ON IT. UNTIL 7/25/20, I HAD NO ISSUES OR COMPLAINTS. ON 7/25/20 THE GEAR STARTED DELAYING SO I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT IN TO A LOCAL AUTO SHOP. I HAD TO PAY $130 FOR THEM TO TELL ME I NEEDED A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION AND MAINTENANCE. NISSAN WAS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THEY EXTENDED THE CVT TRANSMISSION WARRANTY ON THE 2015 ALTIMAS, BUT BECAUSE MINE WAS 7,000 MILES OUT OF THE STANDARD WARRANTY AND THE 2017 VEHICLES WEREN'T SPECIFICALLY INCLUDED IN THE EXTENSION, I WAS BEING ASKED TO PAY $6000 FOR THE REPLACEMENT. THEY ULTIMATELY OFFERED 60% OF COVERAGE BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS BUT NOW I AM DEALING WITH THE ALIGNMENT NOT WORKING AND THE CAR STILL JERKING AFTER PAYING AN ADDITIONAL $1650. I AM LIVID AND UPSET THAT THIS IS NOT ONLY A KNOWN ISSUE BUT THAT NISSAN IS NOT TAKING CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. I HAVE CHILDREN I DRIVE AROUND AND IT'S NOT SAFE TO BE DOING SO WITH A CAR THAT HAS DEFECTIVE PARTS.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
ON 30 JUNE, 2020, AT APPROXIMATELY 4:15 PM, MY 3 YEAR OLD NISSAN ALTIMA STOPPED ACCELERATING. I WAS ON INTERSTATE 64 EAST BOUND GOING UP THE HIGH RISE BRIDGE. ABOUT HALF WAY UP I WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCELERATE. MY MOMENTUM ALLOWED ME TO REACH THE TOP AND COAST DOWN THE OTHER SIDE. DUE TO BEING IN THE LEFT LANE AND RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC THIS CAUSED A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS. ALTHOUGH NO ONE WAS HURT, THE POTENTIAL FOR IT WAS HIGH. AFTER GETTING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BRIDGE NEAR MILE MARKER 294, I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF THEN BACK ON, NO CHANGE. I WAS ABLE TO BACK UP AND REV THE ENGINE IN NEUTRAL BUT NO REVVING/RPM INCREASE OR NON GRAVITY FORWARD MOTION WHILE IN DRIVE. AFTER GETTING TOWED TO THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THE NEXT DAY THAT THE PROBLEM WAS A BAD THROTTLE BODY. I RESEARCHED IT AND THE SYMPTOMS DID NOT MATCH A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE. I ALSO RESEARCH TO SEE OF OTHERS HAD THIS ISSUE AND IT APPEARS TO BE COMMON WITH NISSAN VEHICLES. MY VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. SOME OTHERS WITH VEHICLES UNDER WARRANTY WERE ALSO TOLD THE SAME THING. OFTEN WHEN THIS SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED WITH OTHER VEHICLES AFTER THE WARRANTY WAS UP, AND REOCCURRED AFTER THE WARRANTY WAS OFF, THEY WERE TOLD IT WAS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS ISSUE AND THE POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS HARM, I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. I WAS ON A BRIDGE AND IN A CONSTRUCTION AREA. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A REALLY BAD ACCIDENT, AND HURT PEOPLE. NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR EQUIPMENT THAT THEY KNOW IS DEFECTIVE.
