When driving h the vehicle had a loss of power when there was a hill and the temperature outside was less than 35 degrees fahrenheit. This has happened multiple times and has been to a nissan mechanic and was told they could not duplicate the problem. The rpms on the vehicle will bounce between 2000 to 4000 RPM or more but the vehicle will still not accelerate any further. This is very dangerous on the road. The problem is recurring and has not been fixed. The nissan mechanic said they couldn't do anything until there was a code sensor to look at. We were also informed to buy new tires with the thinking that might be the problem.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan maxima. The contact was driving 65 MPH when the speed began to decrease despite the accelerator pedal being depressed. The vehicle was towed to the contacts home and then to the dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 96,500 .
While driving onto the highway from an off ramp, the power in my car failed. The RPM's were very high, but there was no power. After pressing and releasing the gas several times, the power picked up and the car drove normally. On january 3, while trying to drive 30 MPH to work, the car felt as if it was shifting between gears on its own. No matter how I was pressing on the gas pedal, the car sped up and slowed down on it's own. It was very scary having the car speed up on it's own. I took the car to a mechanic and I was told that I need an entirely new transmission. The car had less than 15 miles on it when I bought it in 2007, needing a new transmission is unacceptable and having the car speed be out of control is an undoubted safety hazard.
Car after warmed up is getting stuck in first gear, had back to dealer and they could not trigger the problem, hooked up computer and can not get an error code so they called nissan USA and was advised to replace the computer program that tells the transmission to shift, I had the car back for three days and same problem, brought right back to dealership, they had for another two weeks and I just received a call that they can not duplicate the problem to come pick it up, as soon as I drove out of the dealership the car would not shift into second gear its hung up in first and then my ABS were acting up sounded like they were dragging on the ground brought right back to dealer they have had the car for 27 days and still can't figure out what's wrong.
Car jerks transmission slips, it happens all the time... Except at speeds 55 or higher. Nissan would not fix the car.. I just missed the extended warranty mileage and they will not stand by the product.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 nissan maxima. The vehicle has an intelligent key. The vehicle was turned off, but it automatically continued running and began to roll. The dealer diagnosed the cause of failure as the transmission. The manufacturer stated that the vehicle could be traded back, but not for the full price.
