Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE, AN WHEN I WOULD START FROM 1ST GEAR MY VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE WHEN TAKING OFF. I HAD TAKEN IT IN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM TAKE LOOK AT IT. THE TECH HAD TOLD ME IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. I'VE HAD THEM LOG THAT INFO. NOW IT'S FUTURE AND THAT PROBLEM HAD ESCALATED TO WHERE IT STILL DOES THE SHAKING BUT ALOT WORSE. NOW IT DOESN'T WANT TO SHIFT OUT OF 2ND GEAR. AT THE TIME OF ME DRIVING THE VEHICLE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND THE VEHICLE HAD SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR AN IT SEEMED AS IT CAME OUT OF GEAR AN DROPPED TO A LOWER GEAR ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT.
