Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR AT 40MPH/AROUND 1000RPMS THE VEHICLE BEGAN VIBRATING AT THE BACK END. UPON ACCELERATION, THE VIBRATION CEASED. THIS BEHAVIOR BECAME CONSISTENT. A MECHANIC INDEPENDENT FROM NISSAN FOUND THAT THE TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR MUST BE REPLACED PER HIS CONVERSATION WITH THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP. ALSO ADVISING INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT THE DEALERSHIP ADMITS TO HAVING A FLOOR FULL OF TRANSMISSIONS THAT NEED REPAIR. I INVESTIGATED THE CLASS ACTION SUIT FILED IN 2010 AND ALREADY SETTLED, BUT HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS PRIOR AS NISSAN DID NOT ALERT ME TO THE PERSISTENT PROBLEM SINCE 2005 I SHOULD EXPECT MY CAR TO DEVELOP. *TR
