The transmission failed without warning. The vehicle was perfectly fine. I've found articles recalling the JX 35 for transmission issues. The car is available for inspection. Our safety was put at risk when the vehicle would not accelerate as I was going through a main intersection while vehicles were coming towards me. This issue came out of no where. No check engine light warning came on to warn me of the issue. The check engine light came on the next day when I started the vehicle. The Infiniti dealership confirmed that the transmission failed and needs to be replaced. The issue first appeared on Sunday, July 9, 2023. Again there was no check engine warning light when the issue started. The next day on July 10, 2023 the check engine light appeared and the vehicle was towed to the Infiniti dealership.

Transmission failed at 101000 miles. Going 70 miles a hour on interstate.it slowed down to15 miles a hour, for the love of something no one hit me, but it could of been a deadly combo. I'm also on a fb group and everyone complains of their trans going out. Also before then alternator and radiator fan, maf throttle and purge valve at 90000 miles, which none is covered. I did pay $3000 for a extended warranty up to 116000 miles. But this transmission is a Worldwide Nissan problem and should of been recalled. Also my BCI continues malfunctioning. I've only had the vehicle since February 2022.

I own a 2013 Infiniti JX35 and the transmission failed on 1 July 2022. It was replaced by AAMCO in Irondale Alabama on the 8th of July. The transmission promptly failed on the way back to SC. during the failure, the FCW and BCI malfunction warning lights came on and the vehicle shuddered and loss power while I was on the highway. the check engine light also came on. I am now hearing that this is a common problem with the 2013 JX35 and the 2014-15 QX60 SUVs. Had I known about this issue, I never would have purchased this death trap. I have made a subsequent trip to the AAMCO here in Columbia, SC and they reset or cleared the codes and as soon as I got on the road to head home, they came right back and I loss power and the vehicle began to shudder again.

Been having transmission problems with this car. Saw the CVT transmission has had multiple issues with other Nissan car brands but mine was not included in any recalls. Safety is the car will not shift out of gear (dont know which) on the highway. What we been doing is parking for a hour or so and it back to working normal. Infiniti says they dont see a problem because when we take into the dealership it doesnt do it only on highway for a period of time. Also no transmission lights or anything come on when this happens. Ive read on numerous infiniti forums online people having the same issue expecting more since seems to be happening around the 100k mark and this car is almost 10 years old.

I was driving down the road when all of a sudden the car became sluggish in acceleration, especially from a stop. It got to a point when the car was not able to go faster than 35 mph. I have noticed it was dangerous to drive like this, especially with kids in the car.

While accelerating to go through a traffic light turning left the transmission shuttered several times causing me to almost not make it through the light before a car was coming through the intersection. I was nearly hit by that vehicle while my 3 year old daughter was in the car as well. This shutter issue keeps happening and now our mechanic says the transmission is going.

As I was exiting the interstate, the transmission just quit working. (mileage around 117,000) luckily I had purchased an extended warranty. I was under the assumption that the transmission was being replaced by my local nissan dealer. About 6 months later, I noticed the car would occasionally not want to accelerate, would miss, or even not move when shifted out of park. Local mechanic was unable to determine the cause (no codes and unable to reproduce at the time). A couple weeks later as I was driving down the road at around 35 miles per hour the car just started making a clunking noise. I had it towed. Then I replaced the driveshaft, front passenger cv axle, and the transfer case. I thought the car was finally repaired, but it started doing the same thing it was doing before all of these things were replaced...not accelerating, missing, etc. This time the not moving once shifted out of park was happening constantly. However, now it is becoming a major safety concern because it is also happening once we stop at a stoplight or intersection. When trying to accelerate to get through the intersection, it isn't moving! This is very scary when you are just hoping and praying the vehicle will finally decide to accelerate before getting struck by another car. I contacted the mechanic again and took it to him. He drove it and of course was not able to duplicate the major hesitation when shifted out of park. When I mentioned that the transmission had been replaced, he informed me that I was incorrect. It had not been replaced, but instead there had been a "patch" of some sort put on the defective transmission by the nissan dealer. His suggestion was to "get rid of it." he said there have been nothing but problems with this CVT transmission. I was shocked! These forums are full of others with the same problems!
