“This issue is happening on a city street, both at a stand still and in motion. Also going both straight and turning. Extremely dangerous!! Out of nowhere I will have my foot on the gas pedal, and it almost seems like no gas is getting into the system. My foot will be on the gas, and nothing will happen. The RPM gauge won't even move. It's especially scary when this happens mid-turn.”

“We purchased a 2013 Nissan Quest in november 2015. It had around 48-49k miles on it and currently has 99k miles on it. While driving it yesterday, it began to violently shake upon acceleration between 0 and 45mph. It felt exactly like driving over rumble strips. We took it to the closest mechanic, who test drove it before pulling it into the garage to check the axels. When he went to put it in reverse to back it out of the garage, the transmission completely quit. The mechanic informed us at that point that nissans with the CVT transmission were notorious for having these types of issues. …”
