2012 Nissan Altima

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND AFTER TWO AND HALF HOURS OF DRIVING COULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 45-50 MILES AN HOUR AND STUCK ON THIS SPEED EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL BEING PRESSED DOWN TO ACCELERATE. I HAD SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES WITH THIS ON THE HIGHWAY IN REGARDS TO ASCENDING HILLS AND HAD NEAR SERIOUS ENCOUNTERS WITH TRUCKS AND OTHER VEHICLES ON ALL INCIDENTS I HAVE HAD TO DRIVE MORE THAN THAT DURATION. I AM ON A WEBSITE CALLED CARGURUS AND HAVE A LOT OF NISSAN 2012 ALTIMA OWNERS WITH THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL HAVING EXACTLY THE SAME TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN ABOUT THIS AND THAT THEY SHOULD DO A QA OF THEIR CALL LOGS AND CHECK OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CUSTOMERS AND ALL THEY COULD SAY IS "THERE IS CURRENTLY NO RECALL ON YOUR VIN". INFORMED THEM ABOUT MEDICINE AFTER DEATH NOT POSSIBLE AND PROBLEMS LIKE THIS WITH FREQUENT COMPLAINTS BY CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND NOT IGNORED TILL PEOPLE START DYING BEFORE THERE IS A NEED TO FIX THIS OR ISSUE A RECALL. THE GEAR BOX AND CV AXLE BASED ON WHAT I HAVE READ MAY BE THE CAUSE OF THIS. I AM NOT A TECHNICIAN BUT THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. EVERY TIME YOU ARE IN A CAR ON THE HIGHWAY ON LONG DISTANCE JOURNEY WITH THIS CAR YOUR LIFE IS ON A LIVE WIRE BECAUSE OF THIS GEAR BOX ISSUE. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN SOUTH HOLLAND IL FOR THIS AND WAS TOLD TO CALL NISSAN AND COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS WHICH I HAVE DONE. I WILL APPRECIATE YOUR LOOKING INTO THIS PLEASE! THANKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE VEHICLE SHIFTED TO LIMP MODE WHILE DRIVING THE COMPLAINANT WAS STRANDED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE CVT TRANSMISSION COOLING SYSTEM INADEQUATE TO COOL FLUIDS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO GO INTO SAFE DRIVING/LIMP MODE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING FOR 45 MINUTES TO ONE HOUR,THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO LIMP MODE. THERE WAS NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DECELERATED FROM 70 MPH DOWN TO 20-30 MPH. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DOWN TO THE FLOORBOARD, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILLER AUTO PLAZA LOCATED AT 2900 2ND ST S, ST CLOUD, MN 56301, (320) 200-2472, TO BE DIAGNOSED HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE.

I HAVE A AUTOMATIC 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA W. 130K MILES. WHILE DRIVING, MY CAR AUTOMATICALLY SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AND IN ORDER FOR ME TO STOP, I HAD TO PLACE MY EMERGENCY BRAKES ON. THE GEAR WAS STUCK IN BETWEEN NEUTRAL AND REVERSE AND UNABLE TO MOVE. THOUGHT IT WAS A SHIFTER CONSOLE, BUT TURNS OUT IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION. IN THIS MODEL CAR, THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN FOR FAILING CVT TRANSMISSIONS/ENGINES. MY FAILURE HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. DUE TO THE MILES, I AM OUT OF WARRANTY AND I DO BELIEVE THAT NISSAN SHOULD BE AT FAULT SEEING THAT THERE IS A SUIT PENDING.

TAKATA RECALL MY 2012 ALTIMA HAS BEEN HAVING SOME SHIFTING ISSUES WHILE I AM DRIVING. MIND YOU THIS CALL HAS 58,000 MILES ON IT (YES 2012 WITH 58,000). IT IS OVER THE 5 YEAR POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT UNDER THE MILEAGE. NISSAN DOES NOT CARE. THERE SHOULD BE ZERO REASONS WHY A CAR WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MILES SHOULD BE HAVING ANY TYPE OF TRANSMISSION ISSUES. NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.

I PURCHASED THE 2012 NISSAN IN 2015 WITH ONLY 22,000 AND SOMETHING MILES. ONCE THE CAR GOT TO ABOUT 76,000 SOMETHING MILES A WHINING NOISE STARTED. SO NOW WITH THE CAR AT ONLY 83,074 MILES THE TRANSMISSION ISN'T GETTING ANY POWER. SO I TURN TO READ REVIEWS AND TALK TO PEOPLE ONLY TO FIND OUT THE CVT'S AREN'T WORTH ANYTHING AND TO GET THEM REPLACED THE PRICE IS RIDICULOUS AND I CAN'T AFFORD IT. BUT YOU WOULD THINK WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT IT NISSAN WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I WOULD NOT TELL ANYONE TO PURCHASE A NISSAN EVER. ALSO WHEN THE WHINING WOULD TAKE PLACE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON CITY STREETS OR MAJOR HIGHWAYS
