2004 Murano sl awd with only 29,000 miles when the vehicle was started the service engine soon light, slip light, and vdc light came on and stayed on. Upon pushing the gas pedal, it took a couple seconds for any acceleration to occur. After getting on the highway and pressing the gas pedal again, the acceleration was delayed and would only go up to about 40 mph, but the rpms were extremely high. Every time I try to take off from a stop, it takes awhile for any acceleration to occur. Feels like the transmission is slipping. Vehicle had to be towed and I had to pay for it. Now I'm being told that even with only 29,000 miles, it's not covered under warranty.
Bad transmission and my catalytic converter went bad at 80,000. On my 2004 Nissan Murano transmission has been slipping since 70, 000.
