Consumer Description

MY 2005 NISSAN IS JERKING DANGEROUSLY WHILE SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. NISSAN KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR AGO AND CHOSE NOT TO INFORM ME JUST TO MAKE A SELL. I BELIEVE THAT THE TRANNY IS DEFECTED AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AND NISSAN SEEMS TO REFUSE TO HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND SPENT 12,000 ON THE CAR NOW THEY ARE ASKING ME TO PAY 4500 FOR THE TRANNY. IF THIS WAS TOLD TO ME THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR WAS BOUGHT I WOULD HAVE WENT AND BROUGHT A HONDA INSTEAD. RIP OFF AND DANGER ALERT TO ANYONE THAT OWN THIS MODEL VEHICLE. *TT
