Consumer Description

MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING BOTH IN LOWER GEARS AND AT TIMES, AT ACCELERATION. ADDITIONALLY, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT TAKES A COUPLE OF SECONDS TO GO INTO DRIVE, BUT THEN JUMPS HARD INTO GEAR. SO HARD LIKE I'VE BEEN HIT. LUCKILY I DON'T LIVE ON A BUSY STREET. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND FROM MY RESEARCH MANY 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I JUST STARTED RESEARCH AFTER LEARNING THAT A FRIEND OF MY DAUGHTER'S WHOSE PARENT OWNS A 2005 MAXIMA IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. *JB
