1 Transmission Gear Slipping problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2019

Vehicle loses power, inconsistently, when beginning to accelerate from a stopped position, such as at a red light, leading to near-rearend collision, on multiple occasions. Feels like the transmission is slipping during these occasions, and after pumping the accelerator it "kicks back into foward gear. Now I am getting code p1778 (was not getting this code for a long time while the vehicle was manifesting this loss of power).

2 Transmission Gear Slipping problem

Failure Date: 07/23/2017

Cvt transmission slipping with no error code, could not tell what the issue was until at a point of failure causing high rpm car slowed down in traffic. Just made it home. Waited until next day to get it to the dealer, have owned lots of Nissans in the past but never one with a cvt transmission even one at 400,000 miles on it. Talked to dealer mechanic and found that this is a common issue with all Nissan vehicles. $5,000 for a new transmission! where's the recall?.
