POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA SL AND FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS THERE HAS BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. ONCE THE CAR IS WARM THERE IS A REAL HARD JERK BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR, AS WELL AS FROM REVERSE INTO DRIVE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO ID A PROBLEM, OTHER THAN THE ENGINE MOUNTS WERE BROKEN AND THEY REPLACED THAT FOR $500. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. I COMMUTE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC 45 MILES EVERY DAY, AND AS I BRAKE OR ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC THE CAR JERKS WHICH IS VERY DISCONCERTING WHEN TRAFFIC IS BAD AND YOU CAN NOT ANTICIPATE EVERYTHING OTHER CARS ARE DOING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY RISK FOR MAXIMA DRIVERS AND ALL THOSE AROUND THEM. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT MY 2006 MAXIMA (75,000 MILES) WAS SHIFTING HARD (JERKING WITH A SLIGHT DELAY PRIOR) IN LOW GEARS, ESPECIALLY 1ST TO 2ND. THE PROBLEM ALSO OCCURRED WHEN PUTTING THE CAR INTO DRIVE FROM REVERSE. IT OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 75% OF THE TIME, BUT I COULDN'T FIND A DEFINITE PATTERN (CAR WAS COLD OR WARM.) I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO RECOMMENDED THE TRANSMISSION BE REPLACED AND IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP GETTING A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT'S A FAULTY CASE BUSHING IN THE CENTER SUPPORT AND EVEN WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION USING THE SAME FAULTY PART, THE PROBLEM WILL ARISE AGAIN. I CONTACTED A LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE STATED NISSAN DID EXTEND A TRANSMISSION WARRANTY ON SOME CARS TO 120,000, BUT MINE WAS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL. IF IT'S A PRODUCT DEFECT, NO CURRENT REMEDY WILL PERMANENTLY FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
OWN A 2006 NISSA MAXIMA. SERVICED MONTHLY AND NOW BEGINNING TO HAVE MAJOR, DANGEROUS TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. HARD, JERKING TRANSMISSION SHIFTS WHILE ACCELERATING OR SLOWING DOWN. TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIR AND AUTO TRANSMISSION SHOP COULD NOT GET ANY READS ON PROBLEM THROUGH DIAGNOSTICS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD NISSAN DEALERSHIP WILL REPLACE TRANSMISSION FOR EST. $3500. THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH MAXIMAS AS I HAVE SEEN MANY, MANY ON-LINE COMPLAINTS. IT IS A DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY. I WILL PURSUE TO GET THIS FIXED BY NISSAN AT NO COST AS IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE JERKING DOES ACTUALLY MAKE PEOPLE IN THE CAR HAVE SEVERE, QUICK UNEXPECTED BODY JERKS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. THANK YOU. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I PURCHASED A NISSAN MAXIMA SL 2005 ON OCT 2004, AT THIS TIME THE CAR HAS 66,500 MILES AND WE ARE HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. SOME OF THESE PROBLEMS INCLUDES (ONCE THE CAR IS HOT): 1. IT TAKES FEW SECONDS FOR THR TRANSMISSION TO CLICK INTO GEAR FROM REVERSE INTO DRIVE ACCOMPANIED BY A VERY HARD JERK. 2. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS OUT DURING REGULAR DRIVING THEN JERKING BACK INTO GEAR AND THIS HARD JERKING IS AFFECTION THE TRANSMISSION MOUNTS. WE HAD A TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGE AT 30,000 AND 60,000 MILES. WE READ PLENTY OF ONLINE POSTING OF 100'S OF CUSTOMER WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME NISSAN MAXIMA 2005 SO WE CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIR FOR HELP. THEY INSTRUCTED US TO GO TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTICS, AT THE DEALER THEY TOLD US THAT THEY WON'T DIAGNOSE THE TRANSMISSION UNTIL THE TRANSMISSION OIL IS CHANGE AND ONE OF THE TRANSMISSION MOUNTS IS REPLACE FOR ABOUT $700. MY WIFE USES THIS CAR WITH THE KIDS AND I'M CONCERN THAT THEY CAN HAVE A PROBLEM THAT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I PURCHASED A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA AND FROM DAY 1 I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION JERKING. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION FLUSHED, 2 TIMES SINCE JULY 2009. OF COURSE THE JERKINESS HAS NEVER DUPLICATED ITSELF. AUG OF 2010, I WAS TOLD THE MOTOR MOUNTS SNAPPED AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED AND OF COURSE I COMPLAINED ABOUT THE JERKINESS IN THE TRANSMISSION AND THE TECH COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AS OF TODAY, I STILL HAVE THE JERKINESS WHICH IS BAD AND AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT I THINK THE VEHICLE WON'T WORK ANYMORE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT JUST CAME ON AND I NOTICE THAT THE ENGINE IS RIDING HARD. JUST LIKE IT DID WHEN I FOUND ABOUT THE MOTOR MOUNTS AND NOW THE JERKINESS IN THE TRAINING IS HAPPENING ALL THE TIME. IT JERKS INTO GEAR REALLY HARD TO THE POINT WHERE YOU MIGHT THINK THE CAR IS GOING TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD MY VEHICLE SERVICED AT NISSAN. I DID FILE A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS BECAUSE IT IS NOT FAIR. THERE IS A PROBLEM. A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. NISSAN HAS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH THE CONTACT WOULD HEAR A THUMP WHILE ACCELERATING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONTACT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT COULD NOT AFFORD THE COST OF THE REPAIRS SO THE MECHANIC TOLD THE CONTACT THE VEHICLE COULD BE DRIVEN UNTIL THE TRANSMISSION DIES. EVENTUALLY THE TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION AND THE DEALER STATED THEIR IS NO RECALL SO THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE CONTACT STATED THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AND THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 86,000.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA, AFTER APPROXIMATELY 100,000 MILES, MY TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP. WHETHER PUTTING THE CAR INTO REVERSE OR IN TO GEAR TO GO FORWARD, THE CAR JERKS VIOLENTLY, AS WELL AS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, THE CAR REVS TO UP TO THE 5000 RPM RANGE, AND THEN JERKS INTO GEAR. THIS OCCURS BETWEEN 1ST AND SECOND GEAR, AS WELL AS 3RD AND 4TH GEAR. THIS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST GET IN TO AN ACCIDENT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER NISSAN MAXIMA FROM 2005 EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
UNINTENDED ACCELERATION 3 TIMES, EACH MORE VIOLENT THEN THE FIRST TIME, OF A NEW 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA, ONLY 26,000 MILES ON IT, THIS IS THE 3RD. TIME IT HAS HAPPENED, ON SEPT. 18, KAHULUI, MAUI. TERRIFYING, I COULD NOT STOP THE CAR AT THE STOP SIGN OF INTERSECTION, THIS WAS THE WORSE OF THE PAST TWO ACCELERATIONS THAT I HAD WITH THIS CAR. MY HUSBAND WAS WITH ME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF CAR. IT TOOK OFF LIKE A "RACE CAR" I COULD NOT BREAK IT OR STOP CAR FROM GOING. HAD TO PULL THE KEYS OUT AND PUT IN NEUTRAL, THEN REVERSE TO GET IT TO STOP.! TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, JIMFALK, THE SERVICE DEPT. COULD NOT FIND WHAT IS WRONG, KEPT CAR FOR A WEEK, DRIVING IT TO "RECREATE" THE PROBLEM, BUT IT SEEMS TO DO IT AFTER SO MANY MONTHS, NOT BACK TO BACK, SOMETHING TRIGGERS IT OFF IT SEEMS. WE ARE STUCK WITH HIS CAR NOW, IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE, AS THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE FOUND. NISSAN SENT A INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATOR TO MAUI TO CHECK THE CAR OUT, NISSAN HEADQUARTERS IN TENNESSEE SAID IT WILL TAKE 6-8 WEEKS TO GET A ANSWER BACK TO US, MEANWHILE WE ARE STUCK NOW WITH A RENTAL CAR BILL AS OUR WARRANTY ONLYCOVERS A LOANER IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CARS TO BE "FIXED" AND SO FAR, THE PROBLEM ANNOTE BE FOUND, SO WE ARE UP THE CREEK SO TO SPEAK AND TECHNICALLY HAVE TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER "ACCELERATION" TO TAKE PLACE IN WHICH EVENT WE COULD BE KILLED. WHAT CAN WE DO? WE HAVE RIGHTS! SOME ONE MUST BE ABLE TO FIND THIS DEATH FEATURE IN OUR CAR! HELP! *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY CAR JERKS BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR AND WHEN DOWN SHIFTING. IT STARTED SHIFTING HARD WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE, FEELING AS IF I HIT SOMETHING EVERY TIME. I WOULD HAVE TO PUSH DOWN ON THE BRAKE HARD BECAUSE IT WOULD JERK SO HARD. THEN MY CAR STARTED SHIFTING HARD BETWEEN GEARS WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS SUCH A VIOLENT SHIFT THAT IF FELT LIKE SOMEONE HAD HIT MY CAR. IT SHIFTED SO HARD YESTERDAY THAT MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT WOULD NOT COME OUT OF FIRST GEAR. I TOOK THE CAR IMMEDIATELY TO MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I NEED A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION ($3000). I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF 2004,05,06 NISSAN MAXIMA OWNERS WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE THAT I AM HAVING. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN AND NO RECALLS! NISSAN REFUSED TO ACT LIKE THIS WAS A PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP! I COULD UNDERSTAND IF MY CAR WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE, BUT WITH HUNDREDS OF OWNERS WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, THAT IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND NISSAN NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT! *TR

2005 NISSAN MAXIMA - INCIDENT REPORT - FAULTY TRANSMISSION LED TO CAR'S FAILURE TO ACCELERATE IN INTERSECTION CAUSING NEAR COLLISION WITH 18 WHEELER. AS I WAS ENTERING INTERSECTION AN 18 WHEELER WAS COMING DOWN THE HILL. I NEEDED TO ACCELERATE TO MOVE OUT OF HIS WAY AND WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO DO SO THE ENGINE MERELY REVVED AND WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR. I HAVE READ AND REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO NISSAN AND THIS AGENCY AS HAVE SO VERY MANY OTHERS. I SUPPOSE IT WILL REQUIRE A DEATH TO GET ANYONE TO SIT UP AND MAKE NISSAN BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR FAULTY AW55-50S TRANSMISSIONS. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH SHOPS ALL OVER THIS NATION AND INDIVIDUALS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. WE DON'T ALL HAVE 3 TO 4 GRAND SITTING AROUND TO PAY FOR THAT WHICH NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. THE TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY AND THE NISSAN IS NOT THE ONLY AUTO WITH THIS IN IT. THE NHTSA NEEDS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE BEFORE A LIFE IF FORFEIT FROM THEIR FAILURE TO ACT. READ THE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ON THIS PRODUCT - THERE ARE NOT 10'S - NOT 100'S - BUT, THOUSANDS. *TR

1.ON MAY 17, 2010 , I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN MY 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA WHERE SOMEONE HAD REAR ENDED ME VERY HARD. AFTER GETTING THE CAR BACK FROM THE BODY SHOP.I NOTICED THAT WHEN SHIFTING GEARS THE CAR STALLS AND JERKS VIOLENTLY. ALSO WHEN DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION STARTS TO SLIP , MEANING I AM PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE , THEN IT KICKS BACK IN PLACE CAUSING THE CAR TO JERK EXTREMELY RUFF. 2. THIS PROBLEM SO VADEN NISSAN SAY THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING BAD AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I HAVE ON THE VEHICLE , BASICALLY THE WON'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL A SERVICE LIGHT OR CODE SHOWS UP, WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY CRAZY. IT OCCURS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. IT SEEM TO WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP IT BEGINS TO HAPPEN. 3. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO VADEN NISSAN FOUR TIMES WITHIN A 3 MONTH PERIOD. FIRST THEY TOPPED OF THE TRANSMISSION FLUID, SECOND TIME THE REPLACED THE MOTOR MOUNTS, THIRD TIME THEY REPLACED THE STARTER AND THE FOURTH TIME, THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME I HAD TO KEEP DRIVING IT UNTIL A SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON . 3. *TR
