Transmission fail at 115000 miles car wont accelerate.
Cvt transmission failed. Doesn't go forward or reverse.
At 93,000 miles the transmission failed and had to be replaced at a cost of $3,700. The only replacement transmission cost more than $2,500 is sold by Nissan and only comes with a 12 month warranty. This is outrageous. Why does the 120,000 mile warranty stop with the 2010 model when the problem still exists in the models after 2010?.
Nissan 2011 cvt transmission failure. Car would not accelerate in the middle of a busy highway, narrowly escaping a crash with another car. Cost to replace $+4000. 2003-2010 Altima cvt owners complained about cvt transmissions and granted complete reimbursement coverage. . . 5 years/60,000 miles changed to 10 years/120,000 miles. Nissan customer service denied $ support for my 2011 Altima nor would they tell me whether I had the same cvt that the 2010 model had. . . If it was the same cvt should I not be granted the same coverage/? the cvt I had endangered my life without any warning! a review of other drivers and law suits suggests that cvt is a danger to more than myself. Nissan has not released information to me or other drivers (one internet article stated that a Nissan ceo said there were no changes made??).
Approximately 4-6 weeks ago the car started to jerk occasionally. Then it became more predominant. We just found out today that the transmission is no good and that there is a history of cvt transmission failure. The cost to repair is $3900. The trade-in value is $2000.
