Having transmission issues shifting into and out of first gear. hesitation and "clunking feeling". car has always had slight hesitation shifting into/out of first since purchased new, but is much worse at higher mileage. dealer recommended transmission flush, has not solved problem. i have seen many online complaints with same problem, and same flushing recommendation that does not fix problem. i believe there needs to be a recall on this issue. waiting for repair estimates, but seeing anything from $3000-5000. i think there has been a defect since beginning with this transmission on the 2005 maxima, but has now become too noticeable to ignore. *tt

Suddenly broke down while in rush hour traffic. car was towed and had cam sensors replaced. transmission began to slip shortly afterwards. the engine would rev but the car would not accelerate. it then would begin to abruptly shift but not gain speed. there was also knocking when shifting from drive to park and vice versa. would at times be stuck at 20mph or the engine would rev. had to pull over on several occasions with my children in the car fearing that it might accelerate and rear end another vehicle or abruptly lose speed and myself be rear ended. also lets off a horrible sulfur smell. was diagnosed with transmission failure on 8/22/13 with 48500 miles. *tt
