Consumer Description

THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT FROM PARK WITHOUT USING THE OVERRIDE. I TOOK INTO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS PART WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. INVESTIGATING THIS, WHICH I SHOULD HAVE DONE BEFORE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I SEE NOTHING BUT COMPLAINTS LODGED ABOUT THE CVT AND THAT THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THE REVERSE OF MY ISSUE. THE DEALER BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE BUT REALLY NOT THEIR PROBLEM BUT FOR A GRAND THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO REPAIR IT. SEEMS TO ME THAT NISSAN HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ASSEMBLY AND THE TRANSMISSION THAT THEY NEED TO ADDRESS. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS TO HAVE A CAR THAT IS 2 YEARS OLD AND IS INOPERABLE. *TR
