2006 Nissan Maxima

PURCHASED 2006 MAXIMA. TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND KNOCKS!! THE CAR ONLY HAD APPROX 80K MILES WHEN THIS STARTED!! WE HAVE REPLACED MOTOR MOUNTS BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. IT IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT AS WELL. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND THIS APPARENTLY IS A PROBLEM FOR MANY OWNERS STARTING IN 2004. WE ARE STILL PAYING ON THIS CAR! *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA SE IN 2007 WITH ABOUT 8K MILES ON IT. THE REGULARLY MAINTAINED CAR NOW HAS A LITTLE UNDER 81K MILES AND IS HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. IT STARTED WITH THE CAR JERKING AND A LOUD NOISE WHEN SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE AND REVERSE TO DRIVE. NOW THE CAR IS JERKING WHEN ACCELERATING. THE CAR STALLS THEN SURGES FORWARD. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC BECAUSE I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY THE $100 FEE THE DEALERSHIP CHARGES JUST TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS DETERIORATING. I STARTED LOOKING FOR INFORMATION ABOUT IT AND CAME ACROSS AN ABUNDANCE OF TESTIMONIES FROM PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT EXPERIENCE AS ME ALL WITHIN THE SAME MILEAGE AND IT SEEMS NISSAN IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I GUESS SOMEONE WILL NEED TO DIE BEFORE THIS ISSUE IS TAKEN SERIOUSLY. I AM SO DONE WITH NISSAN, IS THERE ANYTHING LEGALLY THAT CAN BE DONE FOR NISSAN TO HEAR OUR VOICES FOR A RECALL TO HAPPEN. ITS TO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ISSUE NOT TO BE ADDRESSED. *LN

I PURCHASED MY 06' MAXIMA IN 08' I HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND THE CD PLAYER DOESNT PLAY ANY THING IT SKIPS SPITS THE CD OUT AND AN ERROR MESG. COMES UP. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY "FIXED IT" SO THEY SAY 1 WEEK LATER IT STARTS WITH THE SAME ISSUE I CALLED AND THEY SAID THEY CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT MAYBE ITS THE CD. SO I NEVER GOT THAT ISSUE FIXED. AN OTHER ISSUE IS MY CAR HAS ABOUT 70K MILES AND EVERY TIME THE CAR GOES 20-30 MPH IT HAS A HARD HIT TO CHANGE GEARS EVERY TIME. MY CAR GET SERVICED EVERY 3-4 MONTHS AND NOW I NEED A NEW TRANMISSION!! I ONLY WORK ABOUT 20 MILES FROM WHERE I LIVE HOW CAN THAT BE? ALSO I HAD TO REPLACE SOME KIND OF BRAKE PART. EVERY TIME I WENT TO BRAKE THE CAR MADE THIS NOISE AND IT STARTED TO SHAKE THE SOUND WAS THIS GRINDING SOUND THEN AN OTHER SOUND STARTED LIKE WHEN YOU PRESS THE BRAKES AND THE ROADS ARE WET. BUT SHAKING REAL BAD. I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID ITS W & T ON THE CAR. WHEN I ASKED HIM HOW OFFTEN THIS HAPPENS AND HE SAID NOT THAT OFFTEN SO HOW CAN THAT BE? OTHER THAN THAT ITS LITTLE THING LIKE MY TRUCK LOCK DOESNT STAY PUT I HAVE TO TIGHTEN THE BOLTS OF IT ONCE AWEEK PLEASE MAKE NISSAN DO A RE-CALL I HAVE READ ALL THE COMPALINTS AND THEY ARE ALL THE SAME AND EXPENSIVE ISSUE. *TR

2006 NISSAN MAXIMA, PURCHASED FROM STONE MOUNTAIN NISSAN IN STONE MOUNTAIN, GA ON 2-16-08, IS EXPERIENCING HARD SHIFTING IN LOW GEARS (2-3RD GEAR). THE TRANSMISSION DROPS WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO REVERSE AS WELL AS FROM PARK TO DRIVE. EVERY TIME I TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALER THEY SAY "THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM" ON THANKSGIVING 2010, I WAS TRAVELING ON THE ROAD WITH THE BABIES WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY MAKE THIS LONG JERKING MOVEMENT. CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. DEALER NOW SAYS TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED. (REMEMBER, THEY NEVER COULD REPLICATE THE PROBLEM!) *TR

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA. I HAVE MY CAR SERVICED EVERY THREE MONTHS AND NOW AT ONLY 69,000 MILIEUS MY TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED. A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE I NOTICED A ?WHINING? NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE MECHANIC COULD FIND NO ISSUE. I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A TRANSMISSION DEFECT ON THE 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR
