Transmission (cvt) on slow acceleration will shutter/shake between 20-25 mph. Also, will repeat at approx 40 mph. On 4-17-13, was told by Nissan dealer that Nissan was aware of problem but did not have a fix at this time. Problem is worse with hot engine/transmission. I worry transmission will fail while traveling as this is our vacation vehicle. Certainly a major problem as a transmission would be safety related. How long for Nissan to "find" a fix???? one or two weeks or a year or more?.
