Altima 4-cyl

2012 Nissan Altima. Consumer writes in regards to cvt transmission failure. The consumer stated he started noticing little glitches, in otherwise smooth rides. Then he started experiencing a 2-3 second delay between depressing the accelerator and the vehicle actually moving. On Wednesday April 9, 2014, he was barely able to drive to work, and had to coast with his hazard lights on. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where the consumer was informed it would cost $ 3911 to fix the cvt transmission.

Altima 4-cyl

  • 41,000 miles
Altima was serviced at a dealership less than a week ago for oil and filter change. I was driving the 2012 Altima from work on 4/10/14. It looked the car was stalling on the highway multiple times. I slowed down and managed to get home, all along it looked like it was going to stop any time, luckily it did not happen. But this morning (4/11/14) it stopped on the driveway stalled after moving 15 feet. Towed the car to the dealership to get it repaired.
