2011 Nissan Cube Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“Car does not accelerate. Will not move. Car was running fine I came to a stop, and car would not go. This happened a few times. Now the car will not move at all. Nissan says it needs a new transmission. Apparently it is the fault of their CVT. I have seen many many people on line with this issue. I have contacted Nissan and they refuse to help.”

“My cat transmission is failing. I only have 101k miles and a new transmission isn't in my budget. Please get Nissan to extend the warranty to 120k like on previous models. I have 5 kids and need my vehicle to get them to and from school. The first sign is a horrendous whining sound. Then slipping and failure.”

“At 110k my car stalled. Mid summer 2020 I started my car it began to drive then stopped moving at a traffic light on liberty st in spfld, massachusetts. I had to be pushed out of the road into the cumberland farms that was to the left front of me. My car would start up but there was no power when you pressed gas in drive. It would turn on but wouldn't drive. I had it sent to Nissan dealership and they confirmed the transmission had failed due to CVT issues the belt and it would cost estimate of $3500 to replace. I emptied my savings and bought a new car. …”

“When attempting to accelerate from a complete stop our Nissan CUBE intermittently accelerates very slowly and is not responsive to depressing the gas pedal. The vehicle will then lurch forward as though it is down shifting and takes off. This has been reported and investigated by the dealer 3 - 4 times (first report in july 2012) with the most recent visit (oct 2014) resulting in a replaced transmission. This last week (nov 2014) my wife and I were almost in an accident when pulling out into oncoming traffic as a result of this behavior. …”

“My 2011 Nissan CUBE was being driven to work on the interstate. I pressed on the gas and the car did not move, all of a sudden it lurched forward almost causing me to rear end the vehicle in front of me. I took it to the dealership and I was told I needed a new transmission on a 2011? The car is barely four years old. It is outside of warranty and it is costing me $3700.00. After researching, I see that they have had problems with these transmissions and have extended warranties up to the 2010 models. It is a definite safety issue and needs to be looked into.”
