The issue happened multiple times but seems to happen more, the longer the vehicle is running. The first time I was waiting in a parking lot with the air condition running. I was leaving the parking lot and the vehicle paused and lost accelertion power for a few seconds and started going. I though it was an issue with the air condition so I turned off the air condition to see if it would happen again. When I got to a stop light and started to accelerate it paused again then accelerated. The pause seems to be from 5 to 10 seconds before the car would move.the longer the car was running the more it happened. At this time the check engine light was not on. On shorter distances the problem would not start but on long distances or on acceleration, the pause would continue. Finally the check engine light came on and I went to auto zone to get the code checked. It was a P0776 code, "pressure control solenoid B performance or stuck off". I finally took it to the dealership to get the issue checked and they stated that the transmission would need to be replaced for $6000 on a 3 year old car with only 74000 miles. Problems 1. lost acceleration for a few seconds before the vehicle will accelerate again 2. completely lost acceleration and could not move and a hill. 3. lost acceleration on the freeway and barely made to the side to turn off the car. Seeing the issues for the Nissan Altima and the complaints about the transmission, Nissan needs to take responsibility for a transmission they know has problems and repair the issue. They updated the warranty up to 2016 but not the 2017 or 2018 models that still have issues, using the same transmission as the 2016 models. I will not be buying another Nissan again because of their knowledge of the issue and not correcting it.

Transmission started to slip in early 2019. Went to dealership immediately to be informed that the cvt transmission needed to be replaced. Dealership quoted us $5600 for the repair of a rebuilt. We looked at the error code and saw that all other years and models had already been recalled due to the exact same error. Nissan told us they would give us "assistance" at 60%, which still was over $1600 expense, for a car just 2 years old. The car was at the dealership for 3 weeks. When I picked up the vehicle, the check engine light came on again. Took it right back. Nissan informed me it was a faulty oxygen sensor. Cost another $800. We will never buy another Nissan again.

While driving at highway speed (75mph), my RPM's shot up. I let off the accelerator briefly and when I attempted to push the accelerator again, nothing happened. My car continued to slow down and I was almost hit from behind. I was able to pull off to the side of the highway. I had my car towed to a garage and they said the car had 4 error codes, all having to do with the transmission. I have had my car towed to the dealership as I am still covered under my 5 year/ 60000 mile warranty.

Vehicle started leaking oil. Check engine light came on. Took it to fucillo Nissan, where I purchased it, new. They kept vehicle over one month, returned it supposedly fixed. They had motor out, to fix a leak. Still leaking in my driveway. We are in our seventies and afraid of fire. Please help!!

- Clearwater, FL, USA

Our transmission gave out on 41,982 miles, it is currently getting "rebuild" at Nissan. Tomorrow will make it a week since Nissan has our car and it still hasn't been worked on. We were told it's in rotation. Nissan warrenty sucks, they have us a $105 voucher that only covers 3 days. We live in nyc, there are no car rate for $35 a day, it is $65 a day including tax. Nissan wants to contact our extended warrenty tosee if they can cover a portion of the rental, which is ridiculous. It's their fault for making faulty transmission, I should pay the cost to rent a car.

For the past two weeks I noticed that my vehicle started loosing power at highway speeds randomly. There were times I depressed the accelerator and a significant delay took place with the car speeding up. Yesterday 10/09/2020 while driving home from work it happened again. The car failed to accelerate at highway speeds and began skipping between gears. After getting off my exit for home, I came to a complete stop and waited for the light to turn green. I depressed the accelerator and nothing happened for about 5 seconds. The car finally drove forward and I slowly drove the remaining 4 miles home with my hazard lights on. I made an appointment with the grainger Nissan dealer in garden city, Georgia for today at 9:00 am. I explained the situation to them and was informed that it would take a few days to diagnose the problem. A couple hours later I got a call from the advisor stating that my cars transmission needed to be replaced for $3800. I asked if this was a common issue with Nissan Altima's that have 90K miles on them. He stated that there are some vehicles that have been identified with this issue by the manufacturer and others are not covered by any warranty. He stated that during production they labeled some vehicles by the VIN number with the issue and would repair those vehicles at no cost to owner. However my vehicle did not receive that label. My concern is if they are aware of the failure with their transmission how do they determine which cars they will fix and which ones they will not. What are the criteria to meet eligibility for repair their defective product?

My 2017 Altima is experiencing a sporadic delay when accelerating from a stop. It won't rev or do anything for a couple of seconds no matter how far down the pedal is. Then all of a sudden it'll go. I've almost died multiple times now because of this, this is going to cost someone their life! I've now brought it to the dealer where I bought it twice for their review and each time they've claimed they can't find a problem. This seems to be a widespread issue: Https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-T63248_ds999189

I am an owner of a 2017 Nissan Altima. Within two weeks my transmission tends to jump, jerk, while accelerating. The check engine comes on. According to auto zone, it's a P0776 code. I spent $152 for taking it to be checked out at a dealership. I was told that the transmission is slipping. I reached out to someone at Nissan dealer, when I was informed that there is no difference between the 2016 2016 transmission and the 2017 transmission. On my way home from the dealership, my transmission slipped again. Prior to all this, I had no issues or complaint. Currently, my vehicle has 72,475 miles on it.

My transmission is slipping at 50K miles. I'm experiencing hesitation and jerking while driving. Today I had to pull off to the side of the highway because I was so scared that my car going to shut off while driving. I stop at a red light and my car stall & wouldn't move for a few seconds. I had to put my emergency blinker on. I'm so scared of driving this vehicle because if my car stop while driving and someone hit me from behind, I might end up dead.

Transmission tends to jump when accelerating and car jerks even when pressing on the gas gradually. The check engine light will then flicker on and off but doesn't stay on long enough for me to make it to the shop.

Car lost power while turning on to highway car lost power while driving fown interstate transmissionbis faulty Nissan admits to knowing it and won't recall it. I have power train warrnenty and they won't acknowledge it. The bill is 3600. This is not safe the car loses power while driving you have no ability to press gas. No warning no lights no power some one could die

Vehicle transmission quite working at only 92996. I have had the vehicle for 3 years and well mechanically maintained all the time. Dealership and manufacture company is willing to do anything about the faulty transmissions that they know they put in the vehicles. Altima up to 2016 has had their warranty extended but company refuses to add the 2017 to the list.

- Victoria, TX, USA

My transmission is slipping at 80K miles. My vehicle has been well-maintained and I am aware of the class action lawsuit for transmissions that affects Nissan of my same year. My vehicle shakes, I experience hesitations and jerking while driving. Power loss but no stalling yet.

My car is a 2017 Nissan Altima with only 67,000 miles on it. Until 7/25/20, I had no issues or complaints. On 7/25/20 the gear started delaying so I immediately took it in to a local auto shop. I had to pay $130 for them to tell me I needed a brand new transmission on a 3 year old car with exceptional condition and maintenance. Nissan was aware of this issue because they extended the cvt transmission warranty on the 2015 Altima, but because mine was 7,000 miles out of the standard warranty and the 2017 vehicles weren't specifically included in the extension, I was being asked to pay $6000 for the replacement. They ultimately offered 60% of coverage because of the faulty transmissions but now I am dealing with the alignment not working and the car still jerking after paying an additional $1650. I am livid and upset that this is not only a known issue but that Nissan is not taking care of their customers. I have children I drive around and it's not safe to be doing so with a car that has defective parts.

The transmission on my 2017 Nissan Altima failed after 35,000 miles. The tranimssion was rebuilt a week ago and the rebuilt cvt transmission also failed before the car reached 36,000 miles. I do not trust Nissan transmissions and feel that this car will fail on me again stops acclerating which has happened to me twice already.

On 30 June, 2020, at approximately 4:15 pm, my 3 year old Nissan Altima stopped accelerating. I was on interstate 64 East bound going up the high rise bridge. About half way up I was no longer able to accelerate. My momentum allowed me to reach the top and coast down the other side. Due to being in the left lane and rush hour traffic this caused a safety issue for myself and other drivers. Although no one was hurt, the potential for it was high. After getting to the side of the road at the bottom of the bridge near mile marker 294, I turned the vehicle off then back on, no change. I was able to back up and rev the engine in neutral but no revving/RPM increase or non gravity forward motion while in drive. After getting towed to the dealer, I was told the next day that the problem was a bad throttle body. I researched it and the symptoms did not match a throttle body issue. I also research to see of others had this issue and it appears to be common with Nissan vehicles. My vehicle is still under warranty. Some others with vehicles under warranty were also told the same thing. Often when this same problem occurred with other vehicles after the warranty was up, and reoccurred after the warranty was off, they were told it was a transmission issue. Due to the nature of this issue and the potential for serious harm, I think this should be looked into. I was on a bridge and in a construction area. This could have caused a really bad accident, and hurt people. Nissan needs to be held accountable for equipment that they know is defective.

I was driving the vehicle when suddenly it lost power and would hardly move even with the gas pedal pushed all the way to the floor. I had the car towed to a mechanic where I was told that I needed a new transmission.

- Ashville, AL, USA

The transmission on my Altima was struggling to shift gears while on the highway. The car drove as though it was stuck between drive and neutral. After exiting the off-ramp my car would not accelerate and was adrift. Shifting from various gears and back to drive did nothing. I had to turn the car off and then back on and shift to drive as lower drive did not work. I was able to drive to a dealership but could feel the car's transmission dying along the way. The Altima was 2017 with only 35,000 miles. I purchased the car used with only 5,000 miles.

Car will stop accelerating out of nowhere. Car will spike the rpms but car doesn't accelerate while driving I was almost T-boned when my car delayed for 4 seconds before it accelerated. Nissan is claiming it's the transmission and it's not faulty. This has been a nightmare. If they do not fix Nissan will me losing my business.
