2005 Nissan Maxima

I BOUGHT THIS CAR LESS THAN A WEEK AGO. IT'S ALREADY BEGINNING TO JERK AND CLUNK WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN 1ST AND SECOND GEAR. YESTERDAY IT BEGAN TO REV AND THEN JUMP BACK INTO GEAR WHENEVER I TRIED TO PULL AWAY FROM A STOPPED POSITION. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HE PAID $1700 + TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT BECAUSE HE FELT BAD FOR SELLING ME A JUNK CAR!. BUT FROM WHAT I'M HEARING FROM OTHER DRIVERS WITH THE SAME CAR A REBUILD ONLY HELPS FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS OR SO THEN THE CAR ACTS UP AGAIN.... I'M IN THE U.S. MARINES AND I NEED A RELIABLE CAR TO GO HOME AND CHECK ON MY SICK FATHER EVERY SO OFTEN AND THIS ISN'T SEEMING SO RELIABLE. *TR
