Transmission Shudder problem of the 2016 Nissan Altima 1

While driving my Nissan Altima at highway speeds, the transmission started to shudder and eventually stopping pulling in the middle of traffic. I was almost hit by an 18 wheeler that bare had enough time and space to swerve and go around me. This could've easily been a fatal accident because of a faulty cvt transmission that Nissan knows about but refuses to correct. I took the car to the dealer and as expected they suggested replacing the transmission which is a $5,000 or more repair. So I contacted Nissan consumer affairs in hope of getting some assistance from Nissan since the vehicle is a 2016 with only a little over 100k miles. And like I've read on so many other forums and complaints, Nissan refused to offer any assistance. They would rather risk someone being injured or killed when these cars just randomly stop pulling while traveling on the road in traffic. I've owned several other Nissans, and every one with the cvt had this problem, I should've known better than to purchase another piece of junk Nissan but I gave them the benefit of the doubt and took a chance to only be in the same situation with a bad cvt transmission. My think is Nissan knows this is a problem and has been a problem of they've had since they went to the cvt transmission but they won't offer any assistance or repair the issue. Even the lady that I spoke to at consumer affairs said she had the same issue. Nissan did have a class action suit filed against them for this where they extended the transmission warranty to 84k miles but they're problems usually start right after 84k miles. I know some will say 100k out a transmission is good but I disagree, if you look at some of the competitors like Honda and Toyota�s, they're drivetrains surpasses the Nissans by hundreds of thousands of miles. I own a 2013 Honda accord with the cvt, it's at 265k miles with absolutely no issues.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima 8

My wife's Altima transmission shudders when driving and the vehicle has went into limp mode several times while driving it at highway speeds due to the transmission problem. She was almost involved in an accident due to the vehicle suddenly without warning drop speed from engaging limp mode. Vehicle has just over 70k miles and the dealer states the vehicle is out of warranty and they did not extend the cvt warranty like they had on previous model years. Now we have a vehicle that needs a 4,000 transmission and hardly any mileage that would warrant a transmission replacement.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima 9

The transmission in my vehicle shudders between 1000 and 2000 rpm. It behaves worse at 1500rpm and when the weather is hot. I have to step on the gas and accelerate quickly to escape or avoid the shudder or have to completely let off the gas. It has shuddered so strongly that I have feared significant damage to the car while in motion. I also fear I will be in a situation where rapid acceleration or deceleration would be dangerous.

In August of 2017 I was about to park my Altima when the transmission went out. I attempted to restart the car and the car would not shift into gear.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2015 Nissan Altima 14

Cvt transmission vibrates excessively in interior (floorboards, steering wheel, gas pedal, and and me) noise level extremely high inside car. Dealer and Nissan America say they will not fix or buy back car. Purchased new in sept 2014. Had same car 2014 model that had no vibration or noise. Dealer had seven test drives and all agree with me, but no one would commit to saying the car needs to be fixed - they say it could be defective or could be a design problem. Either way I am stuck!!! would not recommend this car to anyone.

2007 Nissan Altima Transmission Issues

2007 Nissan Altima Transmission

I bought a new 2013 Nissan Altima 2. 5 s in August 2013 and the next month I noticed a shudder in the cvt transmission at approximately 20 mph. Since then it has occurred numerous times but at all speeds, ie 20 mph, 35 mph, 45 mph, it will happen at any speed. I've mentioned it to Nissan and they say its normal. Even the wife states that something is wrong with the transmission.

2007 Nissan Altima Transmission Replacement Cost

The cvt transmission is vibrating violently from 1200~1800 rpm which could potentially cause premature transmission failure during driving. Such vibration also compromises the mileages that Nissan has declared therefore more green house gas emission for same miles. Many 2013 Altima owners complained about the same thing in forums such as edmunds, cars. Com and etc. It is a mechanical design flaw the could severely jeopardise the car and hurt the people in it though Nissan never admit it or fix it in the past one year. I sincerely request nstha to look at this issue. Thanks.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima 17

Well I have noticed that I have a bad vibration and grinding noise between 1,200 and 1,800 rpm's worst at 1,500. This happens no matter what speed. I have brought it in to the dealership 2 different times for this and they tell me this is normal. I am sorry but when a transmission is vibrating or making bad noise's like this it has something wrong with it. I believe this is contributing to my very poor gas mileage. Also while from a stop and accelerating I have had my car surge and have no power while trying to accelerate. This has happened three times and 2 of the times I had a car come up on me fast becasue I was not able to accelerate. This can be a big safty issue.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima 18

Abnormal transmission grinding / lugging noise of the transmission at low rpm (1200-1600). Nissan claims noise is as designed. How is grinding noise in the transmission with a car that has 3000 miles normal? again Nissan claims that this is normal. 1800-343-6913 ext.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima 19

Altima 3. 5 transmission has a severe shudder when accelerating normally at about 15-25 mph. This is intermittent but serious as it results is severe shock to the drivetrain. This was not present when new and has been increasing in severity over the last 1000 miles. The dealer says that Nissan engineers claim that it is 'characteristic' of the 3. 5. This is not true as it was not present when new and is constantly getting worse. It will probably soon result in transmission damage or complete failure which could be a serious safety issue.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima 20

The problem began with the transmission locking up or shuddering going down hill, throwing the vehicle and me forward. Ever been on a golf cart going down a hill where the governor throws you forward? multiply that by about 5 and that's what you get. It has progressively gotten worse, to the point where it actually causes the wheels to stop and 'chirp' on the pavement. Now, it even happens on relatively flat areas and, going up some hills, the transmission just about gives out. It's a safety issue for several reasons: (1) locking up going down a hill is unsafe if someone is behind you, (2) the severity of it could cause you to lose control of the car, (3) losing power going up a hill could cause you to be rear-ended. Nissan has been slow to respond even though other people have had the same problem. My dealer says that they searched Nissan's 'tech talk' across dealers and found nothing. Do a google search on 'Nissan deceleration shudder or lockup' and you'll find lots of folks with the same problem. Very unfortunate for an otherwise great car. They need to identify the problem and recall some or all of the 2013s.

Transmission Shudder problem of the 2008 Nissan Altima 21

Purchased a 2008 Nissan Altima, drove the car for 3,000 miles. Cvt transmission started making strange noises. Turned out to be defective. They replaced it, but did not put it back together properly. Been having problems with it ever since. Nov 30, 2009 took vehicle in for scheduled maintenance, had them examine transmission again for a grinding noise. They did not 'see' anything wrong with it but acknowledged transmission could be defective. Car is going in for more 'tests'. Nissan extended the warranty to 10 years 120,000 miles for cvt's, however I don't feel safe driving the vehicle.
