Vehicle shuddered, stopped at red light in traffic. Vehicle would not drive or reverse.

We purchased our vehicle from Nissan at 72K miles, we experienced a host of problems that we had to pay for out of pocket, only to have Nissan confirm our CVT transmission start to judder and start to lose power when turning left and right at low speeds. We experienced this at 111k miles when our car stalled when pulling out onto a busy road almost causing an accident in front of Walmart. We are in a situation where the repairs of the transmission and the other parts that continually fail are more money than what we have left on payments for the vehicle itself. With such a wide range of vehicles produced with this transmission type and such a widespread problem we feel like Nissan needs to take some ownership of the problem and would like some relief in the form of compensation or recall.

CVT transmission Failure. First failure was approx 53,000 miles. 2nd failure was at 82,500 miles. The first failure threw a code while in for service to investigate an engine shudder. We were experiencing some moderate engine shudder and hesitation. The second occurrence was a very dangerous situation. CVT would barely move (extreme hesitation) at low speed making turns with oncoming traffic to get home potentially deadly. These vehicles probably need to be repurchased by the manufacturer and taken off the streets. At a minimum Nissan should be forced to further extend the CVT powertrain warranty and take responsibility for these poorly designed units. Failures occur with no warning. Had the same situation occur on the highway with a Nissan Altima as well. Instant failure with no warning.

I purchased my car 1 year ago. Since then my car has continued to stutter. Sometimes its a suttle stutter, most times its very noticeable and has continued to get worse in the short time I've had my car. I commute 1 hour to work and 1 hour home from work and am very concerned traveling on the highway at high speeds with this issue. I've asked a dealership in Hutchinson, KS to help me with this issue as I am concerned the CVT valve in the transmission has not been fixed and they won't help me. They tell me that since their tech does not witness the stutter during their brief test drive there is nothing they can do to help. I've read several complaints on nhtsa.gov from other customers as well and they are consistent with my concern.

Have had to replace transmission 2 times on vehicle with 141000 miles on it. These cvt transmissions fail after 60000 miles or so. Very frustrating to pay this much for a vehicle to have same equipment fail multiple times. The replacement transmissions are no better than the originals. Nissan needs to do something to compensate these consumers and own up to the cvt transmission being faulty.

I own a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder and the transmission died last week. I towed it to the dealership and the repair is $5,400. After some digging I discovered that Nissan has had a problem with this model year transmission and there was a class action suit for this issue. They then extended the warranty on the cvt to 10 years or 120,000 miles, however owners were never informed of this recall/ campaign since all vehicles would not experience this problem. Unfortunately for me my tranny failed at 125,000 miles and they would not repair under warranty, although all the circumstances I outlined above shows' they did not do their do diligence to inform and fix the issue after they found out about the fault. I'm sure they will be many more owners of these vehicles that will experience this issue. Anything you can do to assist with this would a appreciated.
