TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, SHE NOTICED THAT IT WOULD JERK WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN 2 AND 3 RPMS. THE VEHICLE WOULD ALSO NOT ACCELERATE TO HIGHER SPEEDS AFTER THE GEARS WERE SHIFTED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL ON A INTERMITTENT BASIS FOR TWO WEEKS. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER WHO ADVISED HER THAT SHE NEEDED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 92,000.

BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. SERVICED AS OUTLINED IN OWNERS MANUAL. TRANSMISSION STARTED HAVING ISSUES AROUND 70,000 MILES. I AM IN THE MILITARY AND WITH DEPLOYMENTS, WASN'T ABLE TO GET IT TO A DEALER. I HAVE CHANGED TRANSMISSION FLUID NUMEROUS TIMES TO TRY AND ALLEVIATE SYMPTOMS TO NO AVAIL. THE TRANSMISSION HAS A 2-4 SECOND DELAY GOING FROM P-D OR D-P, SHIFTS HARD IN MOST GEARS AND SLIPS OUT OF GEAR RANDOMLY. HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO INABILITY TO ACCELERATE. HAVE SEEN MANY, MANY POST OF OWNERS THAT LIST THE EXACT SAME DEFECTS. NISSAN HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 2007-2010 MAXIMAS WITH CVT TRANSMISSION BUT NOT THE 04-06 MODELS FOR SOME REASON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS ABNORMALLY SLIPPING OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SPUTTER WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO A STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED REPLACING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED IN REGARDS TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

2005 MAXIMA IS SLAMMING IN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR. I HAVE ALMOST HAD A FEW ACCIDENTS BECAUSE MY CAR TAKES TOO LONG TO FINALLY SHIFT INTO GEAR. THIS CAUSES MANY NEAR MISSES WHEN DRIVING IN A METROPOLITAN AREA. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY NISSAN DOESN'T MAN UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM THEY SOLD TO THE PUBLIC??? I BOUGHT THIS CAR WITH THE INTENTIONS OF DRIVING IT FOR 300,000 MILES BECAUSE IT IS A NISSAN AND I WAS UNDERSTOOD THAT THEY WERE ONE OF THE BEST. BOY WAS I WRONG AND 30,000 DOLLARS LATER I AM STUCK WITH A CAR THAT ISN'T WORTH 10 DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE READ AND HEARD THE EXACT SAME STORY I HAVE FROM EVERYONE WHO OWNS THIS CAR!! HOW CAN THEY NOT SAY IT IS A DEFECT ON THEIR PART AND CORRECT IT?? *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS SWITCHING GEARS BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO VIOLENTLY JERK. THE DEALER HAD BEEN NOTIFIED WHO WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED WHO TOOK A COMPLAINT FOR THE CONTACT AND THEN REFERRED HIM TO NHTSA TO FILE A SAFETY COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 102,000 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 99,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

MY 2005 MAXIMA WAS VIOLENTLY JERKING, STALLING AND HARD SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEARS AND VICE VERSA. I KEPT TELLING NISSAN THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR BUT THEY WOULD TAKE MAY STATEMENT SAY THEY WOULD GET BACK WHEN ME AND WHEN THEY DID THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT ASSIST ME IN ANY WAY. I TOOK MY CAR TO SEVERAL MECHANICS SPENDING 1000.00 OF DOLLARS AND NO ONE COULD FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. I TOOK MY CAR TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP, AFTER THE GOT THE CAR RUNNING BECAUSE IT HAD STOPPED ON ME ON THE HIGHWAY COMING HOME FROM WORK, THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT JERKS IN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR, I ASKED IF THAT COULD BE FIXED THEY SAID THEY'D TRY, AFTER ANOTHER 2000.00 MORE I BROUGHT IT HOME AND AGAIN THE SAME PROBLEM, I BROUGHT MY CAR BACK TO NISSAN AND THEY GAVE ME AN ESTIMATED LIST OF REPAIRS THAT NEEDED TO BE MADE FOR APPROXIMATELY $6,000 WHICH INCLUDED $4185 TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. HOW IS IT THAT WITHIN A MATTER OF WEEKS AND ONLY 600 MILES THAT IT GOES FROM SENSORS SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM TO YOU NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION, NEW STARTER, I THEN CONTACTED 1-800-NISSAN1 WHICH WAS A WASTE OF TIME THEY SUPPOSEDLY REVIEWED MY COMPLAINT AND TOLD ME THAT UNFORTUNATELY THEY WON'T BE PAYING FOR ANY OF THE REPAIRS. WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK CAR AND I CANNOT BELIEVE A RECALL HASN'T BEEN MADE ON THIS CAR! *TR
