TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED A DIFFICULTY WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. THE RPMS INCREASED AND THE ENGINE REVVED BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS. WHEN THE VEHICLE FINALLY DID SHIFT INTO GEAR, IT WOULD JUMP FROM SECOND GEAR TO FIFTH GEAR. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY.THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP BUT THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE FOR FAILURE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED AND THE VEHICLE WAS BEING SERVICED FOR THE BODY VALVE AT THE TIME OF THE COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 82,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ENGINE / TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE SLIPPING. THE CAR JERKS AND RPM'S SEEM TO JUMP AROUND THE 3 GEAR. CAR SEEMS TO BE LOOSING POWER AND WORKS HARDER TO REACH HIGHER SPEEDS. 1ST GEAR IS OK, AFTER THAT THE SECOND THIRD AND FOURHT GEARS ALL KICK IN WITHIN 5MPH OF EACH OTHER. I AM IN FOURTH GEAR BY THE TIME I REACH 25 MPH. TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE GOING OUT. NISSAN DEALER STATES THAT THEY FOUND NO PROBLEMS SINCE NO CODES CAME UP. I WILL HAVE A LOCAL MECHANIC INSPECT IT SINCE I TRUST THAT THEY WILL MOST LIKELY FIND THAT IT IS TRANSMISSION FAILURE, NOT SOME ELECTRONIC CODE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR ALL THESE VEHICLES AND NISSAN SHOULD OWN UP JUST AS TOYOTA HAS WITH THEIR ACCELERATION PROBLEMS.

2004 AND NEWER NISSAN MAXIMAS HAS A SERIOUS STEERING WHEEL VIBRATION AFTER 40MPH. NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY ARE NO COMPLAINTS, BUT THE INTERNET IF FULL OF CUSTOMERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. MY CAR IS 6YEARS OLD BUT ONLY HAS 34,000 MILES. NEW TIRES, BRAKES,ROTORS,ALIGNMENT MULTIPLY TIRE BALANCES HAS NOT FIXED THIS PROBLEM. ON THE INTERNET CUSTOMER HAVE REPLACED STRUTS, BEARING,CV AXLES AND PROBLEM STILL EXIST. THIS SEEMS LIKE A PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

I HAVE A 04 NISSAN MAXIMA THAT JERKS WHEN COMING OUT OF A COAST ESPECIALLY WHEN COMING OFF OF THE EXPRESSWAY. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPEND. THERE HAVE BEEN 2 PREVIOUS OCCASSIONS THAT THIS HAS HAPPEND AND NEARLY CAUSED SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN AND THEY PLAY DUMB AS IF THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF THE ISSUE,WHEN THERE ARE TONS OF COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. WHAT IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET SOMEONE TO HOLD NISSAN ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS FAULTY TRANSMISSION DESIGN? SOMEONE GETTING KILLED? I PRAY NOT.

I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA. AFTER HAVING BRAKE WORK DONE SEVERAL TIMES, THE REAL PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STRUTS. BOTH FRONT STRUTS NEED TO BE REPLACED. CAR HAS 72,000 MILES AND HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. THIS IS NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR AND IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES, THERE IS A SQUEAKING SOUND, AND CAR SOMETIMES SEEMS TO PULL TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. NISSAN HAS SAID THAT THEY WILL ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY. AS A CONSUMER, I RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT YOU LOOK INTO THIS MATTER.
