Consumer Description
WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN IT TURNED GREEN WENT TO PRESS THE ACCELERATOR AND MY 2012 NISSAN VERSA WITH 37000 MILES DID NOT GO FORWARD. THANK GOD I WAS NOT ON A HILL SO MY CAR WENT SLOWLY FORWARD. HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR. A DAY LATER I GET A CALL SAYING THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS DONE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. REPLACED UNDER 37K MILES! PRIOR TO THIS WHEN I WENT TO GET AN ENGINE DIAGNOSIS I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL RECALLS AND UPDATES THAT NEEDED TO BE PERFORMED ON MY CAR. SO BEING WORRIED THAT SOMETHING MIGHT BE WRONG WITH MY CAR I ASKED THE MECHANIC TO THOUROUGHLY CHECK MY VEHICLE. WITH A BILL OF 2500.00 PAID IN APRIL 2018 THREE MONTHS LATER MY MUFFLER BREAKS APART 400.00 REPAIR AND A MONTH AND A HALF AFTER THAT IN SEPT MY TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETELY SHOT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WHILE DOING RESEARCH I NOTICED THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AFTER THAT MANDATORY UPDATE.
