Transmission failing while driving. Hesitated while driving then wouldn't go.
My Nissan Murano's cvt transmission suddenly failed while driving in the passing lane on interstate highway 84. This placed me and my physically disabled wife in an extremely dangerous situation.
Was driving on vacation from connecticut to south carolina on 8/3/18. Just as we arrived there, the car began jerking at random times while driving and eventually just slowed down to a crawl. We managed to get it to a local Nissan dealership and they informed us the transmission failed (we had 62k miles on the car - 2k miles past the warranty). The dealer told us that it likely failed due to the high temperatures the transmission experienced from such a long drive. We paid to have it replaced. Then on 7/26/19, the car experienced the same thing at 76,000 miles. While driving, it began to not accelerate correctly and eventually just started to crawl at a slow pace. We managed to get the car off the side of the road and took it to a Nissan dealership. They told us that the transmission had failed. . The replacement transmission we put in the year prior came with a 1 year/12k mile warranty. While it failed within a year, we were 2k miles over the warranty limit. We are now paying to have it replaced again. Two failures withing a year period costing over 8500. I know Nissan has had cvt transmission issues with other vehicles, I believe there is also a problem with the ones in the Murano. . .
