Transmission Solenoid problems of the 2016 Nissan Altima

My wife was driving our 16 Altima that just crossed 50k miles on 3/20/21 when she could not accelerate after stopping at a red light. She noticed the rpms were moving higher but the vehicle would not move. She turned off the car while in the middle of the road and was able to restart it. After restarting she could not exceed 40mph. While driving the rmp bounced between 1000 and 3000 and the car "jerked" while she continued to drive home. By the time she made it home the check engine light was on. I used a code scanner to see what was going on and the car returned the following codes (p0776pressure control solenoid b performance or stuck off; p0841 transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch a circuit range/performance). I took the vehicle to the dealership and after they did their diagnosis I was told the vehicle, needed a new transmission. This vehicle has been well maintained with only 50k mills and now needs a brand new transmission. The tech from the dealership told me this a common thing with cvt transmissions, especially on Nissans; which is why he recommends customers buy an extended warranty. If this is a known problem with cvt transmissions why hasn't there been a recall or redesign to fix the issue? it is very dangerous to not have your vehicle accelerate when you need it to. How many accidents have been caused or lives lost by defective cvts? it is a very scary thing to drive a vehicle with this problem. Please do some about this. We do not what this to turn into a takata airbag situation. After being warned about this problem. If you google Nissan cvt transmission problems, you will find videos and forums with complaint after complaint regarding this problem. Please get this issue fixed. My wife and I both have videos of what took place.

My car after it has warmed up from a stop it will not move when excellerator is depressed , even all the way to the floor, then will all of a sudden take off even peel out and if I continue to drive it will start revving the rpms but barely move. One time the check engine light came on and it showed the solenoid #2 needed to be replaced. Once the car was turned off it resets somehow and works fine for a while then does it again. So I will stop and restart the car before I get to an intersection so I won't get hit because my car won't go. It will also shudder on hills regardless of being cold or hot. Definite safety hazard and my daughter wants my car so bringing it in to get the solenoids replaced and transmission flushed to see if this fixes the issue. Rear passenger window has never been able to go down much from day I bought it, so may be related to door opening recall , guess we'll see.
