Transmission is slipping and jerking. Had been driving for about 20 minutes and was stopped at an intersection. Pulled out into traffic and transmission slipped/jerked resulting in almost no acceleration. Has happened again several times while driving straight and also when turning. Vehicle as 76,000 miles. 2014 Nissan Pathfinder.
The transmission slips causing the car to lose power and acceleration. I was merging onto the highway at 60 mph when the transmission gave out as I was merging in front of and next to two semi trailers. Luckily I was able to steer back onto the berm but they came very close to smashing into the back of the car.
Shuddering and jumping in low geared acceleration, seems as if the transmission is slipping. Just bought the vehicle todayaybe put 200 miles on it since buying it.
Multiple issues with this SUV had to have rear shock/strut replaced. Instrument cluster panel has been replaced. Passenger side air bag comes on when person is sitting there. Cvt transmission problems. The SUV has been in the shop on multiple occasions for each issue the transmission issue has been in the shop 6 plus times and I just picked up the 2014 Pathfinder 8-16-2016 and was told and have it on my invoice that the service tech drove the SUV and feels the transmission slipping or skipping but there is nothing they can do Nissan power train warranty will not allow them to replace it because my check engine light is not showing a code. So I have a 2014 Pathfinder that is a complete safety hazard for my family and other people on the road. The SUV will cut out, slip, shutter, lose power and has the potential of causing and accident when trying to accelerate which is terrible for who ever was to hit me and also could be fatal if I was to be hit and the passenger side air bag does not deploy could really hurt/kill the passenger. Every excuse I get from Nissan is they reprogrammed the car and this never fixed anything. The car was having transmission issues back before it made it to 30,000 miles and now at 55,000 miles the SUV is having major issues with the transmission. This is a known issue but Nissan refuses to fix. Nissan instead puts this SUV back on the road knowing it is having a safety issue for acceleration and passenger side air-bag and putting people at risk. I am requesting Nissan to do a buy back of this SUV. I am not looking for a replacement with another faulty transmission or a rebuilt transmission. I have found that there is a class action law suit in federal court in florida with people having the exact same issue. So obliviously there is a major problem with these transmissions.
I purchased my Nissan Pathfinder and Nissan rogue new in 2014. Almost all recommended service has been done at banister Nissan of chesapeake, 930 n battlefield blvd, chesapeake, va 23320 dealership. At approximately 30,000 miles the Pathfinder began to shake violently during acceleration between 15mph and 30mph. Also, the transmission slips and hesitates on both vehicles. Details of this problem have been shared repeatedly with dealership advisors at the time of service. At first technicians claimed not have noticed any trembling / issues during test drives with the Pathfinder. Then each time I brought it in for the shudder, the dealer would blame it on other issues. I have replaced the tires, brakes, and rotors several times at the advice of the dealer. None of that fixed the shudder. Nissan had a recall for a defective valve body in the transmission. The valve body was replaced on both vehicles; however, the failure was not corrected. Banister Nissan of chesapeake did not informed me until after the Pathfinder was out of warranty that transmission was causing the problems and will need to be replaced. I requested assistance from the Nissan manufacturer as advised by the dealership since I have complained about the problems for so long. The manufacturer was notified. Nissan agreed to pay for repair costs for the vehicle. Banister Nissan of chesapeake now tells me they will need to do another diagnostic test but refuse to cover any cost associated. The advisors stated that diagnostic could coast anywhere from $200 - $800. My husband and I are experiencing most of the same issues with the 2014 Nissan rogue purchased new at the same dealership.
Tl the contact owns a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder. While driving 65-70 mph, the vehicle independently decelerated. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal, but it failed to respond. The contact stated that the transmission was slipping. Additionally, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled without warning.

The vehicle was repaired, but the failures recurred. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000.
Car jerks and struggles to increase speeds during this time. When in traffic traveling at a reduced speed car will jerk like the transmission is slipping and fail to increase speed.
