While driving on the highway, the car started missing gears and was stalling. My wife uses the van for school and drop the baby to daycare. Took the car to Nissan and they said it was a muffler, I fixed that and the issue was still there. They then told me it need a tune up costing $650. Didn't do it because it was too expensive. And unnecessary since I always do oil changes. Had a transmission shop look at it and told me the transmission was neutralizing. Car would not change gears. Nissan had 2 law suits against them for premature malfunction to their transmission and they refuse to fix the issue. I spent $3000. 00 to get my transmission rebuilt and the issue is still here. Please help the consumers!.

The automatic transmission will not down shift. When the consumer was pulling onto the freeway, the vehicle failed to accelerate. The cause of the failure was undetermined because dealership was unable to duplicate the problem. When the sun shined onto the dashboard, the reflection reflected onto the windshield and caused an obstruction and distraction to the driver's view. The correct model year 2004. From the park position, the consumer was unable to go up an incline. The transmission did not engage to low gear for the power to move up the hill. The consumer had to back down the hill. The radio would get static when going over bumps, and the driver's side lower panel was coming apart.
