We recently replaced the transmission under warranty and now the vehicle will not shift from park. The override from the brake pedal to the transmission does not function. Don't know if this is a solenoid or mechanical issue. Dealership says replace mechanism and see if this $1000 fix corrects situation.

I recently brought up to the attention of Nissan a problem I've been experiencing with my car. The "check engine service" light is on and it just doesn't turn off. Let me explain. When I first notice the problem, around 6 months ago, I took the car to a dealer. However, just to hook up the car to the computer of the dealership is over $100. Not to get fixed, just to hook up. I think that's outrageous. So I took it to 2 different places, a local mechanic and autozone, both equipped with computer hook ups, capable of "reading" Nissan codes. At first, the code indicated a problem with the "r" valve timing solenoid, which I proceeded to change. However, the light continued on. I took it back, and now it was the "l" side, which I also changed. These two changes cost me $500. But the light continues on. Now is giving codes for the cam/crank sensor, dirt build up, the ivt control solenoid open or shorted. At this point is when I contacted Nissan. I was assigned a case number (11149465) and eventually talked to a beverly, 800/343-6913, ext 458103. She indicated that there was nothing they could if I did not take the car to a Nissan dealer. They still would charge over $100 just to connect to the computer. This is in addition to the monies already spent. This is a problem that other owners of Nissan vehicles have experienced in the past (pathfinder, 2002) and problem. That I had been taking the car to the dealer for the regular maintenance check up since I bought it new, which could be easily verified. That the car has less than 60,000 miles. However, that was Nissan final position. I can provide the bill paid and diagnosis. This problem is, and has been, a headache for us owners, not to mention the expense and time commitment. All I was requesting was to get this problem finally solved, without incurring in additional expenses and unnecessary waste of time.
