Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Transmission blew. These cars are sold as cars who have a very long engine life. I just love my car and am very disappointed that I only got 125k out of it. The body and all other parts are in great shape. I service this car religiously. I see on your site a fair amount of others who have the same complaint. I love the car so much, I almost wanted to pay for a new transmission and keep driving it until I read on your site that nissan is aware of this problem and has not done anything about a recall. Will most likely purchase another vehicle. Thanks
Transmission would stick. Would fail to shift into another gear. Would have no prior warning when transmission sticks. Would stick in 2nd gear & only going 25mph. Also, door locks would go up and down when key is not in ignition. Would work fine if key in ignition. Have taken vehicle to dealer.
1) speedometer/odometer broken @ 72500 miles. 2) exhaust studs broken, tech bulletin out (#94041) but dealer wouldn't fix it.
Transmission will not shift from 1st gear. Must go to n, shut down and restart engine, then back to d to clear problem.
