NHTSA Complaint #11451632 — 2014 NISSAN SENTRA

I first had an issue with my transmission in 2016, maybe a year after purchasing, at 72k miles. I was driving on the interstate at 75/80mph when suddenly my car decelerated rapidly, with a large tractor trailer directly behind me. I veered off the interstate, onto the shoulder, with the tractor trailer barely missing me. My 11 year old son was also with me. After that, I’d occasionally have issues with my car not wanting to accelerate at all. I got stuck a few times in the roadway, until it would suddenly work again 20-30 minutes later after sitting. My next long trip was a 3 hour trip from home several months later. My transmission died, while driving, at about 45mph. I couldn’t make it back home and had to have it towed. It was replaced, and I’m having new issues now, which I’ll put in a second report. What are your children worth to you? Do you want them to be in an accident because a cvt transmission failed in front of them and you or your children’s responsible party couldn’t stop on time? What are my children worth? This was and is terrifying. Please email me for additional information - I don’t have it at this very moment.
