A person from my job at stericycle by the name of michael wygel who works as an I.t. Technician at shred-it/stericycle located at 81 walsh road in parsippany nj, keeps illegally remotely hacking my car. The light comes on saying "tcs off" and another light comes on with it stating "slip." when he does this and these lights comes on, the car does not drive safely at all. The car doesn't go into gear easily and it seems to be very rough to switch gears. Also the steering is completely off when he does this as well as the driving of the vehicle too. This light stays on while I am driving. I am very terrified. He has been stalking me online for months since I found out the I.t. Dept put webcams in the computer stands at my job, and since he has been electronically stalking me-with this illegal sick remote car hacking being a part of his malicious behavior towards me in his efforts to clearly harm me. I am in fear for my life and safety. Car hacking as you know is extremely dangerous and I do not want him to do this to me. His blue tooth # is: 44:00:10:ce:21:ae and his bluetooth name is: braven brv-1 and braven-brv-x(?)

Stuck in gear or won't shift by model year
What owners say
Car shuddered and RPM dropped and then came back up to current RPM level. Came to stop light and vehicle was then put into limp mode. Would not accelerate and RPM's would not go over 2000. Pulled over and turned car off. Restarted car and began to try and drive it again. Service engine light came on and vehicle would not shift gears. Tried to manually shift the automatic trans and it would hit hard upon gear shifts but was able to make it home the remaining few miles.. Brought vehicle in to a mechanics shop the next morning and the codes indicate cam position sensor failures. I see numerous complaints and a recall for this under r2022 but of course my vehicle is not listed. This appears to be a common problem and all vehicles should be included in this recall as it is completely dangerous issue that comes out of nowhere while driving the vehicle. I am waiting for the vehicle to be repaired to see if the problem is completely resolved at my expense. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
My 2005 nissan maxima bought used didn't even have it for six months transmission failed. When ever it is driven for 15 or so minutes it wont shift gears and when coming to a stop it feels like someone slammed into me from behind. I feel very unsafe in this vehicle. I noticed that this is a common problem with this make and model. What is going to be done about this?
I have a 2005 altima and after driving for awhile or when it is hot outside the clutch pedal goes to the floor. When I took the car into redlands nissan they replaced the throw out bearing but, the car still does the same thing. When I traffic the car will not shift - it is extremely scary!! But, the dealer says that I have to pay to replace the unit. Why that part should last a long time? There must be a defect and I want it changed by nissan. The car is awesome but this is just plain stupid and very dangerous! Help!!!
