Consumer Description

CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IN 2003 NISSAN MURANO. CAR WILL NOT MOVE WHEN STEP ON ACCELERATOR, THEN SUDDENLY LURCHES FORWARD AT MUCH HIGHER THAN ANTICIPATED SPEED, ESPECIALLY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. THIS IS DANGEROUS, AS I HAVE NEARLY RUN INTO SEVERAL CARS BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN REQUIRES REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION FOR $5,000 AT CAR OWNER'S EXPENSE - THIS IS AN UNAFFORDABLE REQUIREMENT FOR SAFETY. NISSAN KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, AND REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL THE CARS AND FIX THIS SAFETY HAZARD!!! *TR
