I AM THE FIRST AND ONLY OWNER OF THIS CAR. THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS OR PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. WHENEVER I SHIFT TO REVERSE THE CAR PAUSES AND THEN JERKS. SAME JERK BEHAVIOR HAPPENS WHENEVER I SHIFT FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. *TR I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND HAD NEW MOTOR MOUNTS PUT IN TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. FOR A FEW DAYS YOU COULD BARELY FEEL THE JERKING WHEN SWITCHING TO REVERSE. LITERALLY BY THE NEXT WEEK IT WAS BAD ALL OVER AGAIN AND THE JERKING RETURNED. ALSO, SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING I CAN FEEL THE CAR "HESITATING" WHEN SWITCHING GEARS. FOR EXAMPLE, THIS MORNING I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND GOING ONLY AROUND 25MPH AND AS I STARTED TO ACCELERATE THE CAR JERKED AND SLOWED DOWN FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS BEFORE IT RETURNED TO MY NORMAL SPEED. THIS CAN BE VERY FRUSTRATING AND SCARY. ALL REGULAR SCHEDULED SERVICES (INCLUDING OIL AND FLUID CHANGES) WERE PERFORMED BY LOCAL PROFESSIONAL SHOPS. I WOULD LIKE TO GET MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED BY NISSAN AT THEIR EXPENSE.

WHEN EVER I SHIFT TO REVERSE THE CAR PAUSES AND THEN JERKS. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND HAD NEW MOTOR MOUNT PUT IN TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. FOR A FEW DAYS YOU COULD BARELY FEEL THE JERKING WHEN SWITCHING TO REVERSE. LITERALLY BY THE NEXT WEEK IT WAS BAD ALL OVER AGAIN AND THE JERKING RETURNED. ALSO, SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING I CAN FEEL THE CAR, TO MY KNOWLEDGE, SWITCHING GEARS. FOR EXAMPLE, THIS MORNING I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND GOING ONLY AROUND 25MPH AND AS I STARTED TO ACCELERATE THE CAR JERKED AND SLOWED DOWN FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS BEFORE IT RETURNED TO MY NORMAL SPEED. THIRDLY, THE POWER LOCKS ARE NOT CONSISTENT. WHEN I LOCK MY DOORS WITH THE AUTOMATIC LOCK ON THE KEYS OR EVEN BY PRESSING THE POWER LOCKS ON THE DOOR HANDLE IT WILL ONLY LOCK THE FRONT RIGHT PASSENGER AND THE BACK LEFT PASSENGER DOOR. THIS CAN BE VERY FRUSTRATING AS I HAVE LEFT MY CAR DOORS UNLOCKED UNKNOWINGLY. *TR

AT ABOUT 98000 MILES I NOTICE THAT SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE I WAS GETTING A PAUSE FOR ABOUT 8 SECOND THEN THE TRANSMISSION WOULD JERK AND GIVE A CLANG SOUND.I WENT TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL OR HAD NISSAN HAD THIS PROBLEM.I WAS TOLD TO CHANGE FLUID BECAUSE I WAS SO CLOSE TO 100,000MILE MAINTENANCE,DID SO AND AT ABOUT 110000 PROBLEM CAME BACK NOW EVEN WORSE. I CARRIED THE CAR TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE REBUILT.$3000.00. *TR
