What owners say
Transmission failure. Car has been losing power, slowly getting worse with episodes of near stalling when stepping on gas from a stop. No engine warning lights . When pulling out in heavy traffic, car would nearly stall. Scary and dangerous. I finally took car to Nissan dealer where I purchased the car and they immediately diagnosed transmission failure. At that point, I had 143,209 miles after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment.
I was driving my car on the interstate when the check engine light came on when I hit the gas the car didn't want to go into gear brought the car to the repair shop and the me mechanic told me that this car has a recall for the transmission and engine problems just want to know if this is correct because no one will fix it for me
Camshaft position 'a' - timing over - advanced or system performance (banks 1 & 2). Third time in as many months; two repairs made, third time required. Check engine light comes on regularly.
Transmission stepping motor - per the check engine code at no particular speed, gears slipping, popping into gear, no acceleration from from stop. Seems to get worse the further the drive.
