2005 Nissan Maxima

2005 NISSAN MAXIMA AUTO TRANSMISSION. VEHICLE RANDOMLY JERKS VIOLENTLY WHEN SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR AND FROM SECOND TO FIRST GEAR. THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT ALWAYS HAPPEN, BUT IT IS GETTING MORE FREQUENT. JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WITH 55,000 MILES ON IT, LESS THAN 10,000 MILES LATER I AM BEING TOLD I WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS QUOTED $ 4,200 BY THE DEALER. THIS IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD JERK INTO FIRST GEAR WHEN BRAKING TO A FULL STOP AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REBUILT. THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS NORMAL FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR FOLLOWING THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE PERSISTED. NEITHER THE DEALER OR THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED IN REGARDS TO THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 105,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 119,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I PURCHASE A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA AND NOW THE TRANSMISSION JERKS WHICH CAUSE THE CAR TO ACCELERATE FROM GEAR TO GEAR. I HAVE SPOKEN TO NISSAN ABOUT THIS AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT FIX IT. AFTER READING MORE THAN A HUNDRED COMPLAINTS THIS IS HAPPENING ON A REGULAR BASIS WITH MODELS FROM 2004 TO 2006 AND I THINK NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THERE PRODUCT AND RECALL THE YEAR MODELS THAT AFFECTED BY THERE FAULTY TRANSMISSION SYSTEM. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AND HOLD NISSAN ACCOUNTABLE FOR THERE CARS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. WHILE TRAVELING 0 TO 5 MPH THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE AND THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD AND HESITATED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE THE ENGINE MOUNT WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO OCCUR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SERVICED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 85000.

THE 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA HAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IT'S NOT JUST ME, IF YOU GOOGLE FOR MAXIMA ABS ISSUE, EVERY ONE HAS BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS. APPARENTLY, THE HOLE NEAR THE RIGHT ABS SENSOR IS TOO SMALL FOR THE DUST PARTICLES TO ESCAPE WHICH CLOGS THE ABS AND SHORT CIRCUITS THE ABS MODULE. I LIVE IN NEW YORK STATE WHERE IT SNOWS HEAVILY SOMETIMES IN WINTERS. MY ABS MODULE BLEW UP BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. PEOPLE I HAVE SPOKEN TO HAVE HAD SAME EXACT ISSUE. IT'S AMAZING HOW NISSAN HAS NOT RECALLED THESE VEHICLES FOR THIS PROBLEM. ABS SYSTEM NOT WORKING IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I DON;'T SEE HOW THEY CAN IGNORE THIS. NOT JUST THAT, THIS SORT OF BECOMES A SCAM SINCE THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND STILL NOT RECALLING IT. *TR
