NHTSA Complaint #11121848 — 2013 NISSAN MAXIMA

I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR 2 YEARS AND IT'S ONLY A 5 YEAR OLD CAR. I FIND IT DISTURBING THAT NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUES ON THESE VEHICLES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED. THEY PUT MY KIDS AND MYSELF IN DANGER WHEN MY CAR ALL OF A SUDDEN DIDN'T FUNCTION CORRECTLY. I WAS MAKING A U-TURN AND IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, WE ALMOST GOT HIT BY TWO CARS OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC! I TOOK THE CAR IN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND IT WILL COST $5K TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION THAT THEY CAN ONLY GUARANTEE 12,000/ 1 YEAR AFTER THE REPAIR, WHICH WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY BECAUSE IT EXPIRED. THIS IS SO UNFAIR. I STILL OWE A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS CAR SINCE I FINANCED IT, SO I AM STUCK WITH THE REPAIR COST. NISSAN NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THIS ISSUE AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!
