Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS GIVEN ME TROUBLE SINCE ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT IT. I BOUGHT IT USED, BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD NISSANS ARE VERY RELIABLE VEHICLES EVEN WITH HIGH MILEAGE. IT WILL NOT EXCEL FORWARD AT ANY SPEED UNTIL IT GETS UP TO 40MPH AFTER STOPPING AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. IT IS A DISASTER IN WAITING. I DRIVE EARLY IN THE MORNING AND AT NIGHT FOR WORK. I AM AFRAID SOMEONE IS GOING TO PLOW INTO ME BECAUSE I AM NOT MOVING FAST ENOUGH. THE TRANSMISSION JERKS BAD ENOUGH TO JERK MY HEAD BACK WHENEVER I PUT IT IN REVERSE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANYMORE! THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. I QUIT DRIVING IT A FEW WEEKS AGO DUE TO THE JERKING OF THE TRANSMISSION WHEN I PUT IT INTO REVERSE. THE DATE BELOW IS THE LAST DAY I DROVE IT.
