Vehicle hesitates to move forward when stepping on gas. seems like it slips at highway speed
Stopped and when pulling out lost power and while driving lost power and rpm went really high it was like the transmission wouldn't shift turned vehicle off then was able to drive has done this several times within a week
Check engine light came on around same time car began to exhibit acceleration issues, like stalling, slipping into 2nd gear, and engine cut out when accelerating during both normal city and highway driving. sensors read by certified mechanic, and dealership indicated oxygen sensor failure and the dealership replaced the cvt transmission and the o2 sensor. after repairs and part replacements, 2 weeks later all of these problems began to reoccur. several mechanic recommended getting rid of the car as they can not resolve the issues and don't want to waste my time or money. contact art's automotive in berkeley california
Check engine light came on twice within 3 months of using this car. and it was one of the severe types of illness the car has, if not fixed i could've been stuck on a remote area with no phone reception, which where i live by the way. the car had a slow acceleration, when i stopped on a stop light/sign. had that fixed on december right before christmas week, but engine light came on again after 2 weeks of driving it, car won't shift gears again, slow acceleration, probably has something to do with its transmission etc.
I have a 2016 nissan altima with 85,000 miles that is currently experiencing some issues. i've found multiple people online that are having the same problem. the vehicle at times when pushing down the accelerator will not respond then suddenly take off like it's in 3rd gear. this has caused me too get stuck in intersections with no power and nearly causing accidents. nissan is saying there is no issue. how can this not be a safety recall?
2016 nissan altima has delayed acceleration. also, can hear a sizzle noise when driving making a turn, as if wire is shorting but no smell of burning wires; at this time. this is while driving, idling, street driving, and on highway; we are very concerned.
Car has the same judder code in the transmission but have been told the vin number was not specified as affected. car judders in slow and stop and go traffic and in parking lots. this seems to have become a problem with the software package for these transmissions and has affected more cars than the vin numbers that the recall is out for.
Started vehicle this morning and put in reverse and pressed the pedal to back out and had a delayed reaction and the rpm's just increased. the car did not move for approximately four to five seconds and finally backed out. placed the car in drive and drove toward a stop sign approximately 100 yards away and it seemed like it was losing power as i tried to accelerate and again the rpm's increased but seemed like it would not move. drove vehicle back home and with same issues and parked for about thirty minutes. tried to duplicate but drove just fine. this has happened before while at a red light about a couple of months ago. tried accelerating and would barely accelerate like it had no power. placed in park, cut the car off and back on and after a few minutes, i hit the accelerator and it darted off. luckily, there has been no accidents but have concerns if this happens while on a highway. this altima on has over 53k miles and have no idea why this is happening because i am not a mechanic but have read several statements on the internet from others with the ...
On multiple occasions, after coming to a complete stop vehicle would not accelerate after pushing the accelerator. in addition to this now the transmission will not up shift for road speed. vehicle, when placed in park or neutral, will rev up when accelerator is pushed but not while transmission is engaged in drive. again the acceleration problem has occurred multiple times over the past 4-6 months. the shifting episode occurred in addition to the afore mentioned problem today 20 oct 2019.
The car started shacking once it would go about 25-30 mph. the check engine light turned on after and it was read by a mechanic as a code p0841-transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch. this happens on city streets and highway driving.
I was on the highway and the car started jerking like it didn't want to go and i got off the highway because it was unsafe..made it to a stop light and the car didn't want to go..but it went after a couple of tries..i went shopping and got back on the highway to head home and the check engine light comes on and went to get it looked at and they tell me a lot of the nissan are having this same problem and it's the transmission which cost a lot of money..i have around 75,000 miles on my nissan altima
16 nissan altima sometimes has about a 5 second delay in acceleration as car just idles and slowly rolls ahead. this is very dangerous when you are taking off and crossing on coming traffic. took it to nissan dealer they said nothing they can do because it doesnt show an error code. same with nissan usa corperation. says nothing they can do untill shows a code or fails completely. so basicall they are saying that this vehicle is safe to drive? new transmission about 4500 dollars. my warranty runs out at 90,000 miles, wich is an aftermarket warranty that i paid 2500 $ for. im sure that they hope the warranty expires so i get the bill. nissan knows about problems with cvt transmissions, and footpedal position sensors and does nothing about it. how can they be in buisness? how van they tell me it is safe to drive like this. i think it should be a recall issue.
