Consumer Description

I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR JUST TURNED ITSELF OFF. I TURN IT BACK ON AND AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN DRIVE IT TURNS ITSELF OFF AGAIN. I FINALLY GET IT GOING AND GET TO MY DESTINATION WITHOUT ANYMORE PROBLEMS. THE NEXT DAY I GO TO START IT AND AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN DRIVE THE CAR TURNS ITSELF OFF, I CONTINUE TO TRY TO GET IT GOING BUT NEVER DID. I GET IT TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I GET THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. NOW 3 MONTHS AFTER I GET A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION IT'S DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. I START THE CAR GO TO PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT TURNS OFF.
