Consumer Description

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE CAR MAKES JERKING MOVEMENTS OCCASIONALLY WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR DRIVE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT MAY HAPPEN AND IT FEELS AS THOUGH YOU ARE HITTING SOMETHING. TODAY ALL THE LIGHTS CAME, I COULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THE MECHANIC IS SAYING THAT IT MAY BE MY TRANSMISSION...86,000 MILES!! I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT I AM REPLACING A TRANSMISSION IN A NISSAN WITH 86,000 MILES. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS AND AM SO DISCOURAGED. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE WITH RANDOM JERKING MOTIONS THAT NISSAN CANNOT DIAGNOSE. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED FOR ITS TRANSMISSION. NISSAN DOES NOT STAND BY ITS CARS OR SERVICE. *TR
