Consumer Description

DRIVING TO OKLAHOMA FROM EL PASO, TWO HOURS INTO THE TRIP WE ARE GOING UP THE MOUNTAINS AND THE CAR STOPS SHIFTING. WE WENT FROM 70MPH TO 40 MPH ALL THE WAY UP THE MOUNTAIN. THE CAR DID THIS FOR THE ENTIRE TRIP. WE CONTACTED CASA NISSAN ONCE WE RETURNED FROM OUR TRIP. MY CAR WAS DUE FOR ITS REGULARLY SCHEDULED TUN UP SO THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID HE WOULD CHECK OUT THE ISSUE DURING SERVICE. THE REPRESENTATIVE ASSURED ME THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO LOW TRANSMISSION FLUIDS AND THE FLUIDS WERE FILLED AND SERVICED. ON AUGUST 10,2012 WE WENT BACK TO OKLAHOMA AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED. WE ARE BACK IN THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THE SAME REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED ME THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. SEPTEMBER 2011 THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE IN THE CAR AND NOW ITS THE TRANSMISSION. *TR
