WE WERE DRIVING HOME LAST NIGHT AND THE CAR HARD SHIFTED DOWN FROM THIRD TO FIRST ON IT'S OWN. IT WAS SUCH A VIOLENT DOWNSHIFT THE CAR ACTUALLY TURNED OFF. WE WERE NEARLY REAR-ENDED AND HAD TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I GOT HOME AND LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND IT APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR BUT THERE ARE NO RECALLS. I TOOK IT IN TODAY AND SPENT OVER $1000 BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON DURING THE RIDE HOME AND IT IS HARD SHIFTING AGAIN. *TR

I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY CAR SINCE I, PURCHASED IT BACK IN APRIL 2004. I WROTE A LETTER TO THE NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND DID NOT RECEIVE ANY RESPONSE, CURRENTLY MY VEHICLE JERKS WHEN I TRY TO REVERSE THEN IT SKIPS BEFORE IT GETS INTO GEAR. ALSO TO ADD, ONCE THE CAR GETS TO A CERTAIN SPEED I CAN FEEL THE CAR REV-UP BEFORE IT EVEN CATCHES GEAR WHICH IS MAINLY IN THE FIRST AND SECOND GEARS. I HAVE BEEN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY REPLACED MY MOTOR MOUNTS AND I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS BEFORE. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL MAXIMA 2004'S. *TR
