2010 Nissan Altima

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHEN THE CONTACT ENGAGED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE VEHICLE MOVED VERY SLOWLY. THIS HAPPENED SPORADICALLY AND IT ALSO OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED INDICATING ANY TYPE OF FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE BUT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. AFTER RUNNING A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON THE TRANSMISSION FAULTY CODES WERE DETECTED INDICATING THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND INFORMED THEM OF THE FAILURE BUT WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS ON BACK ORDER. THEY ALSO ARE NOT SURE WHEN THEY WILL RECEIVE THE TRANSMISSION TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

I HAVE A 2010 ALTIMA BOUGHT IN MARCH 2010 THAT HAS STARTED TO JERK WHILE IT IS BEING DRIVEN. MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER HAS HAD THE CAR FOR TWO WEEKS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG. THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG WITH THE CAR AND IT IS NOT DRIVING NORMAL BUT AFTER TALKING TO NISSAN TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND TRYING TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM I JUST RECEIVED A CALL THAT STATES THAT THEIR ENGINEER SAID THAT THE PROBLEM I'M EXPERIENCING IS NORMAL AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THE PROBLEM IS CONTINUING TO GET WORSE AND NOW I'M WORRIED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE COULD LOSE POWER. I DO NOT FEEL THAT CONTINUING TO DRIVE MY CAR IN THIS CONDITION IS SAFE. THE CAR DID NOT HAVE THESE COMPLICATIONS WHEN I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW SO I'M SURE THIS ISN'T A NORMAL CONDITION. MY MOTHER HAS THE SAME CAR BOUGHT TWO DAYS AFTER I BOUGHT MINE AND IT DOES NOT HAVE THIS CONDITION. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE NISSAN CONSUMER DEPARTMENT BUT AND VERY CONCERNED THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE URGENCY IN THIS MATTER. *TR

THEY SAID I MAY HAVE TO RETURN FOR AN MRI IF IT GETS WORSE. *TR
