Blighty vehicle used at route 46, totowa, NJ in 2017. It has 76k miles and we just moved to rhode island. My 18 year old daughter driving by herself up I 95 while driving 65 mph had the vehicle decelerate several times down to 40 mph despite pursuing the gas to the floor. At one point with semi trucks all around her it dropped to 25 mph where she had to put the hazards on while these trucks whipped by her. She got here but was freaked out. My odb picked up error code p074 for a clutch solenoid issue with the transmission. Known issue to Nissan. How many of these do we have to report before someone gets killed to get this listed as a recall to fix the transmission? NHTSA you have a duty to protect us and order Nissan to fix this issue.

Our cvt transmission just let go on a 2014 Sentra sr with 89,000. It was slipping, bucking and stalling the car. Towed it to the dealer said the cost would be $2200 to replace the valve body and a exhaust timing solenoid. If that didn't fix it, (I would have to pay $2200) it would need a new transmission which would cost about $4300. I called Nissan corporate but they were of no help. They said it is out of warranty. They didn't even offer to pay 50%. I have seen a lot of problems with the cvt transmission something needs to be done. This is our 5th Nissan. Never will I buy a Nissan vehicle.
