Maxima 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

I own a 1998 Nissan Maxima SE the transmission and the torque converter must have been defective from the manufacturer because when I purchased the car the reviews on the car had stated that the powertrain shifting was hard and rough.since I had the car it has been doing just that. It shifts so hard sometimes from a stop that I feel that its not going to go into gear.its not driven hard at all, so could someone look into this matter. My check engine light is on now from my torque converter circuit being intermittened.I would greatly appreciate it very much, thanks.
