The cvt transmission doesn't shift correctly. I have brought my car into the dealership and called the manufacture 6 times. They say if it doesn't show a code there is nothing they can do. The car while driving will not shift correctly causing you not to be able to move at the speed of traffic for upwards of 20 seconds at a time.

For the second time while driving my Pathfinder my car simply shuts itself off. It won't move at all. This has happened once going up a hill in December of 2017, and yesterday whole on a busy road. Luckily I was not rear ended. After about 20 minutes my car started normal and ran fine on the way home. If I was on a highway which I normally drive I would have been hit as there are no warning signs before it does this. I have brought it to the dealership and they can't get the car to show a code. My safety and the safety of others is at an all time high in this automobile.

While driving on an country road going 35, my 2017 Pathfinder SUV all of a sudden hesitated to go past 40 for a few seconds. Had my foot to the floor, the RPM gauge was spinning but I couldn't get past 40.

My vehicle is a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. When driving and coming to a stop, then attempting to enter traffic or climb a hill, there is no acceleration. It has a hesitation which is very concerning when attempting to merge into traffic. My vehicle almost appears to sputter out. This has occurred with me several times but with friends and family in the vehicle at least four times. The dealer did attempt to remedy the situation with a recalled part on the transmission, however, it is still happening. I have been dealing with this issue since February 2017, still ongoing.
