Consumer Description

I was in the middle of an intersection turning left, and the car stalled and I was almost hit by oncoming traffic. The car has problems accelerating and shifting gears. It will get up to 4 rpm's and not shift. This has happened several times, and is a safety risk . Fortunately, I was never hit. Nissan says I need a need CVT transmission. There's a class action suit filed for this model and the CVT transmission. However, since my car is 103, 000, Nissan will not replace unless 85,000. This is a manufacturer defect that needs fixed ASAP before someone gets in a terrible crash!
