Problems with 2012 Nissan Altima POWER TRAIN

I have 135,000 miles on my 2012 nissan altima. and i started hearing a whining noise and asked the dealership to check it out about 2 months ago. they said that's just how the altima sounds. now i am having to replace a transmission that's going to cost me 4,000.00. i researched transmission issues on the internet and a lot of people are having the same issues. going up a hill the car would whine or when i try to accelerate. the car started to jerk upon pulling off and would not accelerate until i let off the brake then tried to accelerate again.

My car is in excellent condition. just under 7 years old and my transmission has to be replaced. the transmission began slipping and rpm 's were high when i was driving on the highway.

Cvt transmission are not , not cars! there was a recall up to 2010, but they continued to make them with cvt! often when driving my car it lose all acceleration! i went to nissan and there was no issue on the diagnostic tool and they said that due to this being the main job of the cht, they said a cooling kit can be installed, which it was. 2 years later, my car again slips into neutral. my gear shift moves sometimes and other times, just no acceleration this has happened now over 10 times in 2 days!!!!!! because the issue is not showing on diagnostic, they will not look at the cars transmission, trans fluid, or the gear shift. they wouldn't do a thing to my car! this is forcing me to drive with unsafe conditions! i am taking into a real and honest mechanic!! nissan knows there is an issue and that many drivers are driving dangerously, as they refuse to do the right thing!!! there is no dipstick to check the transmission fluid or else i would do it myself. do the right thing and save many people from getting into accidents and potentially losing their lives!!! coming off an off ramp, no acceleration; driving on a highway no acceleration, pulling out of my driveway after warming my car up non acceleration. this is dangerous and illegal!!!!! this issue began 2-3 years ago, was temporarily fixed wit the cooling kit that i had to pay for out of pocket, and has been happening consistently for the last 5 days!!!! google this issue and there are thousands of people with the same issue and nissan offering no help nor even a simple mechanic once over look!!!! i am a social worker who works with children in foster care, often tranporting them from unsafe conditions to situations that i am promising are more safe and comfortable! i can no longer promise them this if my car is unsafe!! i have almost been in a minimum of 5 accidents because of this issue! dealership no help!!

Takata recall. i was traveling on the interstate, in heavy traffic, when my car began to slow it refused to maintain my speed or accelerate at all. i had to pull into the median to avoid being hit by an 18 wheeler. i had my sister and two of our little kids in the car with me. this is not the only time it has done this it has done it several times now and the mechanics can't find anything wrong. i have read several places where others have had this same issue.... i believe their is a manufacturer default with either the acceleration or transmission.... it just revs up sounds like it's doing something but not increasing speed. i have noticed that it occurs mostly after i have been traveling a while...like about an hour and a half or so

While driving on highway doing speed 70 to 80mph, vehicle begins to reduce speed and goes into like a safe mode. very unsafe on interstate highway. while searching on google find out cvt transmission vechile only has 81823 miles on it. nissan needs to cover the warranty to fix the vechile.

Cut transmission slipping causing car to over ten with little to no acceleration.

O hills and on warm days the car losses power and wont go over 60 mph this happened on the highway and almost cuased a wreck. this has happened several times. engine light came on and the code said it was low on fluid. it was checked and was good.

2012 nissan altima sl 115,425 miles and transmission dead.

While in motion, the vehicle begins to drasticly slow down from speeds of 60 to 70 mph down to 20 to 30 mph. this usually happens during the day after driving for an hour + and in any kind of incline road. at hard inclines i can bearly drive upward even hhaving to come to a complete stop. the rpm gage begins to jump rapidly to 5 and 6 rpm when even slightly pressing the gas peddle, and once it adjust , the vehicle will not go more that 3 rpm while still at a mph slower than 30. this will stay for the remainder of the drive until i have stopped and turned my vehicle off for a significant amount of time. tbis began happening at 100,000 miles and now at 150,000 miles it happens very frequently. i feel this is unacceptable, and clearly very unsafe for driving long distances on large highways, when my vehicle should work as it should.

My 2012 altima 2.5s has shut down transmission wise(cvt) and it will not speed up even when gas pedal is all the way to the floor! today it did this for a total of 120 miles...this is a safety issue when you cant get your car out of the way of even get to the shoulder because nothing happens when the gas is pushed down...i barely made it home today with of course a torrential downpour and my car wouldnt respond...i googled "2012 altima will not speed up going uphill" what i found are too many complaints with the same exact problem and nissan does nothing about it...whats it going to take? someone getting killed which is what it usually takes to get something positive done? nissan needs to do a recall on this immediately..

The 2012 nissan altima coupe 3.5 6 speed manual transmission was in motion on a city street when sudden loss of clutch pressure occurred. this resulted in the inability to change gears and therefore effectively control the speed of the vehicle outside minimum and maximum speed specifications for the given gear. this was the result of a faulty concentric clutch slave cylinder.

Sustained driving more than an hour the transmission overheats and forces sensor to "fail safe mode" causing vehicle to drive only at low speed. this is a safety issue on the open road due to driving way under posted speed or having to stop n road side.

While driving on a highway at 75mph, my car just stopped going. i decelerated very quickly. i was pressing gas pedal to the floor and car would not increase speed. it just would not go. the rpms went over 3,000. no check engine light came on. i didn't even have any warning in the days leading up to this event that this would happen. there were a lot of vehicles on road at that particular time and a truck happened to be driving behind me. the truck and other vehicles were all swerving on either side of me to get out of my lane and as a result, i could not get my vehicle off of the road until they all passed. as i kept coasting along waiting for opportunity to pull over to side of road, i kept pressing gas pedal. eventually that worked and i began to pick up speed again, but my car was accelerating very slowly. i drove to exit and got off of highway. i waited about an hour before returning home same way. on drive home accelerating was slow and rpms were erractic. there was also a whining noise when i gave car gas. this happened once more. i no longer drive car on highway so i haven't experienced it stopping while driving, but it still whines, accelerates slowly, and rpms are erratic. vehicle has been parked at service department at dealership. my car only has 108,000 miles on it. i've never missed any scheduled maintenance which dealership performed majority of it. the warranty was only covered up to 60,000 miles. now i'm told that at 108,000 miles, i need a new tcc, valve body, and solenoids.

After driving vehicle for 1 hour or more, vehicle goes into fail-safe mode, meaning the rpms will not go over 2500. so, if one is on the highway going 70 mph, then arrives at a hill, then the vehicle speed could decrease to 40 mph. according to mechanic, this is a known issue and nissan has a service kit for this exact issue. i am not sure why it is not a recall...

Transmission stopped working. car stopped moving.

In warm weather, car consistently goes into limp mode. it will only achieve speeds of around 30mph even though rpms are accelerating. i have to stop the car and wait for 20 minutes in order to drive it again. doesn't seem to happen when outdoor temperatures are cooler. this has been happening for several months and is apparently a well-documented issue with other nissan altima owners.

I have 78k miles and my car is loosing power when i am driving. looses power after sitting at a light, while driving the car bucks as if its getting stuck in it's gears and when i get up to a certain speed the car makes a squealing noise.

1st incident: driving on hwy 5 in ca on a hot day at freeway speed car suddenly lost power and dropped below 30 mph. pulled off of hwy and shut vehicle off for about 30 minutes and no longer experienced this issue. 2nd incident: driving on interstate 80 in ca in 95-100 degree weather. got off freeway and car lost power again this time not going over 5 mph. took vehicle to nissan dealer for diagnostics. they said they could not replicate problem when driving but "mileage in" was the same as "mileage out" which tells me they didn't drive very far if at all. they put it on diagnostic machine and got a code saying "cvt a at 4" and "cvt b at 7" cvt has been overheated. recommend replace valve body and install external cooler for concern. i've read many complaints about same issue with nissan cvt transmission.

My vehicle is 5 years old and i have had to replace the radiator and now the transmission. there are over 700 complaints of this same issue with the nhtsa and consumer affairs. i have taken my vehicle into the dealer twice for this issue and this ongoing issue is going to hurt or even kill someone. nissan is fully aware of the cvt issues and this needs to be resolved. this recently happened this past weekend (2nd time now). we traveled maybe 35 miles, when the transmission started to whine just before we reached the exit, i was unable to accelerate. no lights, no warnings, nothing stating there was an issue. my car had to be towed to a local auto shop, where they stated they could not address the problem as it is most likely the transmission. it was then, again towed to the dealer. ken garff nissan. where i was told that my 5 year old car needs a new transmission! a year to date i had to replace my radiator, water pump, serpentine belt ect! this is not okay and not acceptable. should i have had my daughter in the car and lost acceleration on the freeway, i cant event fathom. this issue transmission defect has substantially impaired the use, market value and most of all the safety of the vehicle. my family is worth more than this defective vehicle. the dealership has been more than helpful and they agreed a 5 year old car should not be having all these issues. i am asking that nissan do the right thing and fix this problem and care about the consumer. i truly want to believe that nissan cares about their consumers and i really hope that they review this complaint and act upon it, doing the right thing and recall these engines. i was blown away by how many nissan owners experienced the same issue and filed complaints with the bbb, carguru, nissan and consumer affairs. please, have this looked into. i know nissan is fully aware and this needs to be corrected.

Whining up hill and no drive down hill, when heated up transmission will not go until cooled off

When the car is at 75mph, it loses speen and the rpm goes up and it slows down when you stop the car and wait for an hour or more, it will go back to normal for a while it happens after and hour or long trips.

Vehicle lost power while driving 70 mph down highway. almost got rear ended by semi as i could not keep enough speed to stay ahead and get to side of road. when i searched web, found this to be a frequent occurrence on the 2012 cvt transmission.

Driving down fl. i75 did not have power to pass another vehicle. push the gas pedal several tines no power. no warning lights on dash. after sever miles safely got off i75. found out cvt over heated and shut engine down. nissan waiting for some one to get killed. is that what nissan is waiting for? there is a fix for over heating cvts. is nhtsa going to sit on there butt or do something about it. this is an on going thing with nissan.

After driving for about two hours on a trip the cvt transmission stops accelerating and you slow to a crawl which is very dangerous if your in heavy traffic was almost killed by a big rig who couldn't slow down in time

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 nissan altima. while stationary, the vehicle would not start when prompted by the key fob. in addition, while driving various speeds, the vehicle would not stop when the brake pedal was depressed. the contact was able to place the vehicle in park to stop. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 113,090.

Driving at highway speeds car engine suddenly revved to approx. 5000 rpm. pulled over and upon accelerating again the car would drive but the engine revved very high and the cvt wouldn't change gear ratios ("shift") as it normally does. realized car would accelerate and not rev as high if i accelerated extremely slowly. car however is extremely dangerous to drive at this point. also couldn't drive above 55 mph without the engine revving very high approaching redline. after approx 5 more miles of driving the "service engine" light came on and i scanned the code. showing code p1778 which appears to be a stepper motor problem with the cvt. called dealer and sounds like they don't fix cvt, just replace for between $4000-$5000. very disappointed nissan hasn't resolved these problems yet and that they treat a $5000 part as a replacement item and not one that can be fixed.

I was driving my car down the road heading to get something to eat. it was a sunday night, it just started misting rain. i drove on my usual curvy 2 lane paved highway and then proceed onto my usual 4 lane paved highway to mcdonald's where i got food inside and then upon leaving decided to go through drive through for another item. i left and headed approximately 3 miles back on the same road i traveled to town on. as i was on the 2 lane ithe all of a sudden appeared to be raining heavier and i could tell by the rain crossing over my headlights. something different than normal caught my eye, it looked like orange rain, i assumed just the appearance from one of the bulbs. unsure though, i continued driving but scooted to the edge of my seat and set up tall to getta better look, at that time i seen flames. the car was on fire, i couldn't pull off side of road as it has no ditches just ravines so i slowed down and tried unlocking my door to open it wouldn't and my window wouldn't roll down, terrified i proceeded to call 911 and inform them my car was on fire and i was in it driving down the road and was hoping to get to next road i knew i could pull off. the entire time never did anything warning lights or gauges come on nor did the temperature rise. i finally was able to exist the car fully engulfed in flames. the police department and fire department finally arrived. theyou got it put out but it was complete loss. i have no idea as to why this fire happened i took well care of my car, maintaining it regularly as recommended and always cautiously driving it. i have another nissan altima that's still running strong with 300,000.00 miles on it, so this should show i care for my vehicles above what's recommended.

After i have been driving my car for 45 min on the freeway going around 70-85 mph the car loses power and almost feels like it is going to stall. once i was off the freeway at the intersection when i accelerated my car would barely move. this seems like a huge safety issue. i have heard of others almost being rear ended because of this same issue. they say its due to the transmission overheating and going into safe mode in hot temperatures. my vehicle was doing this when it was 65 degrees outside. i think since this seems to be a common problem and with the safety being a concern nissan should do something about it.

Driving vehicle at time of transmission failure. have a 2012 nissan 2.5l altima with recent extended warranty that just expired. (of course). i have been dealing with the car and its hesitation and chugging issues since october 2015. i brought car into the dealership and on three separate occasions concerned about the performance of the vehicle. first time in shop i was told that the scope showed no warning codes and recommendation was to complete the 100,000 mile maintenance of flushing transmission and spark plug replacement, which was done and car seems to ruin ok... for a few days. then same issues. we took a trip to colorado from minnesota and the problem with hesitation and chugging with automatic gear shifting. i took the car back in and again in december with technician now driving the car was told nothing was showing up. car continued to get worse with now no acceleration, so i took it in a week ago when the car was showing alot more signs of something wrong, and technician drove with me in the car and stated to service manager that he didn't experience anything that indicated an issue. the next day, of course on a saturday, the car would not go over 5 miles an hour and created almost a massive accident on local city street. i immediately took it in to the dealership and was finally given the news (which i knew all the time) that codes where indicating a transmission failure and unfortunately was in need of a new transmission! cost $3,900 and some change!!! that's when i started researching and saw this problem dated back to 2008 with nissan products. nissan did settle on a class action suit by providing car owners an extended warranty, yet knowingly, they continued to manufacture cars with the same transmission! i am outraged that dealers continue to sell these cars.

Transmisson went out while driving on the highway.

I have had the issues of losing power while driving my altima at a speed of 60 mph for longer than an hour i would lose all power . i would be driving on the highway moving with traffic at a speed of 75 -80 mph and then all of a sudden with no warning lights my car will start to lose power and drop all the way to 40 mph . now i am trying to go from the fast lane over two other lanes while losing power . i am lucky that i haven't been rear ended at this point . i have been complaining about this issue to nissan since i purchased the car in 2012 i have brought it into nissan on oct 2013 , may 2015 and june 2016 that i have receipts for . in 2013 and 2015 i was told by nissan there was nothing wrong with my car then in june 2016 i was told i needed a new transmission . i received a quote of $2304.72 and 10 hours of labor in june 2016 now aug 29 2016 i am being told that it will be over $3500 for a new transmission . there is a service bulletin out dated nov 25 2015 for this exact issue i am having my transmission has finally gone and i think it is just wrong that i have to pay for something that nissan knows is built poorly .this is a safety issue and nissan needs to fix it before someone does get seriously hurt

My vehicle would not go forward when pressing on the gas pedal. it would not go past 40 mph on the expressway. after 20 minutes in traffic is when the check service engine came on. i had it diagnosed at a transmission shop and the code reflected the cvt transmission. i have an appointment with a nissan dealership to check out the diagnosis...will update documents later.

8/12/16 i was driving from schaumburg il. to la crosse wi with my daughter in my car and my son following behind. drive is approx 3 hrs & 50 mins. the weather outside high 80's & humid. an hour into my trip on 90west in stop and go traffic on the expressway due to construction. went to accelerate from a complete stop the car would only go to 20 mph with my foot to the floor & it took some time. the rpms didnt move, the car didnt rev, there were no warning lights, no lights dimming on the interior & the temperature gauge was just where it should be. i thought it was just a fluke. when approaching the wi dells 2 hours into my trip & an hour & a half remaining, i was in the "fast lane" of traffic doing about 80 mph, i went to accelerate more i noticed the same thing was happening. only now my speed was rapidly decreasing. i moved over & got off on the nearest exit still attempting to accelerate, i pulled into a gas station. hesitant on shutting the car off not knowing what was happening. called my brother & described the event i had experienced. advised to shut it down thinking maybe the system just needed a reset. waited 20 mins & advised my son that we would stay in the "slow" lane. car started right up & went the hour & 30 mins with no problem. car sat at the hotel we were staying at all night. morning of the 13th did short trips, got lunch & attend a meeting near campus. car was just as it always has been. 4 pm cst i got on 90e to head home. the same 3hr 50 min 248 mile trip. outside mid 80's not as humid as the day before. 1 hr & 30 min from my home doing 80/85 mph, now in various construction areas that do not provide a shoulder, my car starts to lose acceleration while i am trying to accelerate. i'm in the "fast" lane & noone would move over.let it sit 10 minutes drove the last hour & a half, no problems.

Im driving down the freeway taking the curve downtown dallas & my car stalls o power available. i cannot steer to coast, nor put can ion emergency flashers. where it dies it sits. this is a major safety issue and nissan cannot figure out why. i have only had car for 2 months. very disappointed and scared.

I was traveling from alabama to atlanta georgia on interstate i-20. as i travel about a hour and a half into the trip the car begin to decline in speed. i was traveling about 80-85 mph and had to move over from the left lane to get in the right lane in order to exit off, it decline down to about 40 mph. as i pushed on the accelerator, it did nothing. it wouldn't go past 40mph. it continued so i pulled the car off on the next exit. after about 20 minutes of letting the car set and i begin to start the trip back the car was fine. so on my way back to alabama it did it again. when i returned back from the trip that sunday i went to my local nissan dealer that monday morning and was told that it was the transmission. it would cost me $5000 for a new one or $3500 for a used one. as i look at these complaints, this is a nissan problem. why should i have to come out of pocket for something that is going on with my car and as i see others. nissan needs to put a recall on this for it is a problem!!!

When traveling on freeway at 70-100 mph car will loose acceleration and slowly slow down to 40 mph no matter how far the gas pedal is depressed. will not regain power until the car is pulled over shut off and within 5-10 minutes restarted and will repeat again within 15 -20 minutes of reaching 70 mph.

Vehicle was traveling at 70 mph when car slowed down to 55 mph with no warning. pressing accelerator would not make care go any faster. pulled over and waited 10 minutes then continued drive.

My nissan altima 2012 has significant reduction in speed while taking trips less than 40 miles. driving on fast lane on highway about 70 miles then all of a sudden it reduces all by itself to 35-40 mph and i almost got into in accident because i did to know what was going on but had to get off the onto the side of the highway.

Please note this is a safety hazard that occurs when the car is driving one the interstate or highway at 55-70 mph. the car will decelerate and slowly lose speed. i can slam the gas pedal to the floor and the car will not accelerate. this usually happens in very hot weather. it always happens in motion, and sometimes on a hill. it has almost caused me to be rear-ended while hauling children in my vehicle. if i stop the car and wait about 10 minutes, i can start it up and continue on going 300 or more miles before it may happen again. this had happened about 4 times in the last 4-5 months, but now it is occurring more frequently. there was no engine light and it was not giving a code. i took it to east tennessee nissan in morristown, tn, who could not determine the problem but said similar cars are experiencing transmission issues. i took it to a licensed transmission shop who could not get a code. the transmission shop said it could be a problem starting with the valve body of the transmission as he has seen as many problems with the 2011-2012 models as the earlier models that got extended warranties. both places said they could not give a guaranteed fix because it is not showing them a problem. yesterday, the problem occurred multiple times on our way home from vacation, almost getting us hit by a semi truck. finally, after 6 restarts yesterday, the car is showing code p0744, which is torque converter clutch intermittent which we have been told is the transmission valve body. this is an absolute danger that needs to be addressed before people are killed or seriously injured.

While driving on the interstate to fl from ky at around 65-75 mph the vehicle would not accelorate past 3000 rpm's. going up hills was the worst, cars would pass and our vehicle would slowly decline in speed. pulled over to check the car out and after if cooled down it when back to working okay but after another hour on the road it done the same thing.

In warm or hot weather, 75 degrees f or above, the transmission gets hot and fails to pull. it goes into some type of mode that seems to temporarily reset the transmission. i have talked to other altima owners and it seems to be a common problem. after about ten minutes of letting the car sit with nothing on. the car will continue for a while. it has happened to me approximately ten times. the trips that it happens on are over 75-80 miles. please reply with a possible remedy. thanks, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Car loses acceleration when driving. i noticed it does this when the temperature outside gets hot. i took my car into nissan last year (when it was still under warranty) and they said they couldn't find anything wrong with it besides it needing brakes. now that the weather is getting hotter (palm springs, ca 120 degrees) and my car is out of warranty (75,000 miles) it's doing it again!! this is a huge safety issue. i've almost got rear ended twice because of this! since i know it's been happening i've been trying to use cruise control as much as possible on the freeway (going about 65-70) because i'm afraid it's going to do it again! last weekend i had to pull off the freeway 3 times because my car would not go over 40 mph!! i read online there are a ton of complaints about this same issue and nissan won't do anything to fix this. this is a huge safety issue and needs to be fixed with a recall! this has happened about 20 times in the past year!

I bought my car pretty much brand new (it didn't even have 20 miles on it). my first transmission was leaking around 30,000 miles. even though i asked my service advisor to check it, he assured me the tech's checked it and the only thing leaking was from the ac. i left, put the car on a lift, took pictures, and bought them to the dealer. they then replaced it under warranty. around 90,000 miles, i started having issues getting the car to go after a complete stop. its very random but is occurring more frequently. i was making a left turn yielding to traffic, i had plenty of time. however my car was crawling for 30 seconds or so. i am glad i didn't get stuck in the intersection. when a light turns green, people will beep their horn at me, or try to cut the people off in the other lanes to pass me. i frantically searched the web to find that tons of people are having this issue with nissan altimas of different years near mine. i was shocked to see that their were so many complaints between chat forms, complaint websites, and even so many youtube videos. you can push the gas pedal to the floor, but it crawls for a random amount of time (maybe up to a minute). here is someone who captured it on video on a car without even 30,000: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uliodpoi1_m i called the dealer and they said my car was no longer under warranty and the replacement transmission warranty is only good for 12,000 miles or 12 months. other companies have longer warranty periods for their transmissions. ford has 2 years. does nissan know how awful their transmissions are so they won't cover them for a longer period? i no longer feel safe in my car, and i feel like i could break down at any time, but i can't afford another car payment right now. please don't let nissan get away with this any longer. thank you for your help. *tr

After driving at 70 mph for several hours, the vehicle will no longer accelerate and slows down. the vehicle needs to sit for a period of time before it is able to accelerate again. this issue had occurred before 8k miles earlier and had the cvt cooler replaced under warranty.

Was driving at normal highway speed car suddenly lost power would not accelerate or turn more than2000 rpm when climbing hills car slows to a crawl you have to turn the car off and wait awhile and then restart it you may go2 miles or200 before it starts again

The transmission went out after 65k miles. i took it to the dealership and because the warranty is only up to 60k they would not help me or warrant any repairs. because of dealer cost i was able to rebuild it at a different repair shop for $4000.00. the mechanic told me that this was caused by a leak in the radiator, the coolant leaked into the transmission fluid causing damge to the transmission. it seems that nissan had a recall on models up to to 2010 and also gave extended warranties. however the 2012 is not on this reacall. i feel that the problem still exist and a recall for my model should take place. my cost was 4000 dollars, it just doesnt seem fair. no transmission shuld go out before 100k. this is my daughters vehicle and it quit functioning in traffic in the middle of the road where she could have been in an accident. this is a huge problem that the dealership should own up to.

I was driving my 2012 nissan altima on a busy 4 lane road. i was in the turning lane when my car refused to accelerate. i had power and the engine revved when i pushed on the pedal, but the car would not move. i put the car in park, shut it off and restarted it. the car then jerked its way through the intersection. a few hundred more yards and it stopped again in the middle of the road. i restarted multiple times but it would not move. i had it towed to my mechanic and i was told it was a failed cvt transmission. i called nissan america to see if they would help, and they said tow it to a nissan dealership and they would review it and see if they would help. i contacted nissan and they said my cvt transmission failed and that it was out of warranty. it will cost over $4000 to replace it. this is a dangerous event. i did not know when i bought the car about the problems nissan has had with these transmissions. after a week of waiting, nissan america came back and said they would not help. they would not offer a reason why. i asked about the fact that the cvt transmissions had so many problems that nissan retroactively doubled the warranty on models before 2010, would they do that for my 2012. i was told no. i asked to speak with a manager and i was refused, saying the review process is complete. i am lucky that i was not involved in an accident considering what happened. i am angry that this dangerous situation occurred. and i am frustrated that after suggesting they might help, nissan wasted another week of my time, when i could have gotten it fixed by my mechanic, instead of bringing it to a dealership.

Paint is coming off the car from where the factory has repainted over a clear coated surface. paint is also coming out of the jams of the car causing rust. parts on the car are also starting to break down. the seats do not properly catch the gear holding them into place. transmission makes a terrible winding noice

While traveling on the interstate at 70 miles per hour on two separate occasions, my 2012 nissan altima lost acceleration and would not go back into gear which almost caused a horrible accident with an 18 wheeler the second time this incident occurred. my car was only at 67,000 miles and the dealership is stating that it needs a new cvt transmission. this is a safety hazard and could have caused our baby to be involved in a horrible accident. something definitely needs to be done regarding this situation before someone gets injured badly!

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 nissan altima. when driving in weather above 84 degrees, the cruise control failed while driving approximately 70 mph. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the cvt transmission overheated and the vehicle needed a valve body and oil cooler to correct the defect. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 92,000. the vin was not provided. updated 09/06/16*lj *tr
