This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Nissan dealer.
Nissan Versa Note SV was slipping (felt like transmission and engine disengaged during acceleration, allowing the engine to rev up, then suddenly reconnects, which jerks the car forward). This started happening more than 6 months ago. Only does this once this during the first 1/2 mile of my drives, but if I turn the car off it will do it again when I drive next.
My Nissan Dealership said it was still under the 60,000 mile warranty. They are fixing it and paying for my rental. I would be scared, but when I purchased the car at 23,000miles they offered a 200,000 additional mile drive train warranty. So until 223,000 miles they should have me covered. Hopefully I don't need it again.

Have power train warranty on said vehicle, now to get it repaired got to pay for this and that and than go without a vehicle for a whole wee
Update from May 31, 2017: For the transmission slipping you will need to replace the computer for the transmission every 50000 miles which is crazy considering vehicle is only 2 years old

The car was only 3 1/2 yrs old. Had to replace the tranny out of pocket while is was not under warranty. Being a single mother of 3, that was extremely heart wrenching bit had to be done so I could keep my job. Now I am having an issue with the timing chain that is also not under warranty
