Consumer Description
I WAS A PROUD OWNER OF A 2006 MAXIMA BUT NOW I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED. ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO, MY CAR STARTED JERKING WHEN SWITCHING GEARS, ACCELERATING, PARKING, AND SLOWING DOWN. I WENT TO NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY TRANSMISSION HAD INTERNAL FAILURES AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT $4200.00!!! MY CAR ONLY HAS 73,000 MILES SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES AND HAVE FILED A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST NISSAN BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THEIR TRANSMISSIONS ARE MESSED UP AND THEY ARE TRYING NOT TO OWN UP TO IT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE WHEN IT JERKS VIOLENTLY OR STALLS, YOU LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR WHICH IS VERY SCARY AND TERRIFYING. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN AGAIN!!! *TR
