Problems with 2008 Nissan Altima POWER TRAIN

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 nissan altima. while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle jerked, lost power, and the check engine indicator illuminated. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. the contact called nissan south at 678-619-3104 (located at 6889 jonesboro rd, morrow, ga 30260) and was informed that the vehicle was out of warranty; therefore, they could not assist. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and did not assist. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 114,000.

This car is driven about 5000 miles per year. at 5 years/25000 miles the transmission suddenly while in motion failed, leaving me stranded on the road. that transmission had to be replaced. at 10 years/50000 miles the transmission suddenly failed again, again while in motion, leaving me once more stranded on the road. that transmission also had to be replaced. it is now 12 years/60000 miles and today this transmission is starting to slip and make a whirring noise. (this is the date i have used below)

Ny exhaust manifold is having trouble i've been told that there's been a recall but cannot find anything recent. my tire pressure monitoring system isn't reading correctly either and i'm scared i'm going to get into an accident. my exhaust manifold there's a loud noise coming from it according to the shop that checked my car. i've kept up with all maintaince i am unsure what is happening.

I was driving on highway and everything was good. suddenly the car lost power but the engine was still running well. the car just stopped and could't move. it was very dangerous because i was driving the car on a very busy highway. nissan should recall the 2008 nissan altima!

2008 altima coupe. consumer writes in regards to issue with vehicles continuously variable transmission (cvt). *ld the consumer stated while driving the vehicle would into limp mode. the dealer was notified. *js

At 120000 miles the transmission failed on this 2.5 l engine. we paid $3,000 to have that repaired 10 months ago. now the car is using about 1 gallon of oil every 3 weeks and we found that cylinder 3 has piston rings that are shot. our dealership confirms that this engine is known for transmission problems. i noticed that the 2006 model altima with a 2.5 l engine had an extended warranty issued because the car uses excessive oil and an engine fire may result. our newer model with the same engine nearly runs out of oil every month and is very hot. do we have any recourse with nissan? anyone else having these problems?

Cvt problem - whirring noise

I have put 2 different cvt trannys in my 08 altima coupe and both have failed and stuck having to do a 3rd i was on the freeway at 80 when it went into fail safe with no where to pull off was stranded for a second time

2008 nissan altima. consumer writes in regards to cvt transmission failure. *ld the consumer stated on more than one occasion while driving the vehicle's engine turned off. *js

The car seems to "slip gears" when attempting to accelerate from a stop. the cvt transmission doesn't seem to engage and move the car at times. it seems to be a common issue among nissan altimas of this year. researching online there were numerous complaints from other owners of similar issues. the car fails to accelerate at times when it is expected.

While being shifted into reverse from a stop in a parking space, our '08 nissan altima coupe 6spmt made a loud clunk from the engine compartment and the clutch pedal went immediately to the floor. the shared brake/clutch reservoir was found to be drained to the level of the clutch takeoff. while this presented no immediate safety issues, had it happened while shifting at highway speed, i can imagine it would be, to say the least, highly distracting for the typical driver and perhaps more so for a less experienced one. i have experienced clutch failures in other cars but typically the system deteriorates slowly, unlike this sudden failure. i have diagnosed the failure myself (competent diy mechanic) and based upon no signs of leakage or mechanical failure in the area of the clutch master cylinder or reservoir, but brake fluid dripping from the transaxle, i am confident the clutch master cylinder or an internal hydraulic line has failed. thanks!

Cvt transmission replaced at 82,139 miles. an extension of the warranty was done for a large number of cvt transmissions extending to 120,000 miles. my daughters vehicle is at 147,000 miles and the car just about quit running on the interstate 55 south on her way back to college. we had to have it towed 200 miles home and the transmission must be replaced again at a cost of $3500 and the car is not worth that much money. nissan did not correct the transmission problem, they just put another cvt transmission in the first time. this was an unsafe and unethical practice. they will not do anything about it nor give any credit because they say there are too many miles on the car. although there is only 65,000 miles on the transmission itself.

1) clear coat and black paint fading to primer (year 2017-2018) 2) 124,000 miles - transmission whining as vehicle speeds up on streets and highways (march 22,2018) 3) black dash has melted, cant see out windshield while driving facing the sun (2017-2018)

Cvt transmission went out 119,00 miles. said warranty was out at 10 years on jan. 30 2018 going to have to pay $4,600.00 to have replaced and only giving warranty for 12 months or 12,000 miles. i will never buy another nissan.

Transmission going into fail safe mode when driving. very dangerous, pulling out into an intersection and losing power in the middle of the intersection, possibly causing an accident by not being able to get out of the way of traffic. very scary and very concerning.
