I realized I was losing power while driving down the sagtikos parkway. I pulled to the side of the road, turned off the car, and attempted to restart. The car would start, but would not change into drive, nor reverse (or would not register). I was effectively stranded along the parkway. It was determined that my car experienced -- what I understand to be -- transmission failure. I purchased the car only six (6) months ago.
Cvt transmission failure no recall option. The transmission has been slowly failing over the last 6 months slipping no recourse but to replace the vehicle has less then 100,000 miles.
Transmission failed with no warning. Vehicle would not move after braking while still in gear. Only 78,000 miles logged. 5. 5 years old. Exact event: backing slowly out of a driveway (in reverse); braked at end of driveway to look both directions; resumed acceleration (in reverse) as I turned and nothing happened. Vehicle would not "land" in any gear (drive, reverse, low drive, etc). Had to be towed from location to my mechanic. My mechanic diagnosed the transmission as inoperable and needing replacement. Recommended I tow to a Nissan dealer for hopeful coverage by Nissan. Nissan confirmed need to replace at the cost of $4156.
