The car has a transmission failure if I did full stop and try to move the car will take about 10 seconds to move, I took the car to the dealership and they said because the car is rebuilt title they won't fix but the transmission is factory deficit and called the cunsomer affair and will not help me. It's not safe to drive it even if you taking a left turn in may stop in the middle of the other road it was in murfreesboro tn and my job is like an hour away from home

This car since purchase has had the transmission replaced four times. When the transmission fails the car coasts to a stop which on the highway is a danger as the car is susceptible to be hit by other cars. In addition when the transmission fails the engine stops and the braking system is rendered inoperable the only way to stop the car is via the emergency break. The transmission failure in these cars is a known problem as nisan has extended the warranty t ten years. When the transmission failed on my son he was on the highway and barely made it to the breakdown lane without getting hit. This is a serious safety issue due to the fact if the disabled car is hit it could cause fatalities due to the failure of the systems.

When on the interstate after about two hours my vehicle will not accelerate. When I press the gas the RPM's go up but the vehicle does nothing. If I pull off the road for a few minutes it is fine for a little longer but will reoccurs in frequency depending on the temperature outside. My vehicle has a CVT transmission which has been replaced once in july/august of 2013. The new transmission has the same issue and I have taken it into the shop twice now is not fixed.

Came to a very sudden stop to avoid a collision. Vehicle would not accelerate after this. Episode lasted about 20 seconds and then functioned properly. Has happened at least 6 more times since first incident. Always seems to happen when exiting off interstate and coming to a stop. Vehicle starts into intersection and then accelerator seems unresponsive. When this is happening the car does not rev even though accelerator is pushed to the floor repeatedly. Episode will last approx. 15-30 seconds and then seems to return to normal. Very unnerving when facing oncoming traffic. The transmission has already been replaced one time at about 75k. Never performed this way until after dealership replaced the transmission.
