NHTSA Complaint #11375041 — 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CVT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR FROM CARMAX AND WAS SENT TO NISSAN FOR A RESET. NO ISSUE WAS FOUND AT THAT TIME. THE CAR IS SHUTTERING AND STALLING OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING FULL SPEED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE/FREEWAY AS WELL AS OTHER BUSY ROADS LEAVING MYSELF AND MY CHILD STRANDED AND IN NEAR ACCIDENTS. NISSAN REFUSES TO HELP WITH THIS PART. IT SHOULD 100% BE A RECALL. INSTEAD, NISSAN ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I WAS NOT NOTIFIED ABOUT AND EXPIRED TWO WEEKS, JULY 31, 2020 BEFORE I CONTACTED NISSAN WITH THE WORSENING ISSUE. THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE MY CAR HAD 98,000 MILES INSTEAD OF 80,000/ I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOUR YEARS, I AM FINANCIALLY STRUGGLING BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC, AND MAKING PAYMENTS ON A CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT NISSAN'S FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSIONS. PLEASE HELP!!!!! THIS STARTED AGAIN TWO WEEKS INTO AUGUST WHEN I INITIALLY CONTACTED NISSAN. THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN UNDIAGNOSED TRANSMISSION ISSUE. THESE SHOULD BE REPLACED AS RECALLS OR DEEMED LEMONS. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NOVEMBER OF 2016.
