2005 NISSAN MAXIMA Complaints

TRANSMISSION STARTED FAILING AT AROUND 98K MILES. JERKS AND SLIPS WHILE DRIVING. DOESN'T PERFORM PROPERLY WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE. HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON ANY TYPE ROAD, ANY CONDITIONS, ANY TIME AND AT ANY SPEED.

AT A RED LIGHT, CAR STALLED, TOOK A FEW SECONDS TO RESTART. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE, IT REVS LIKE IT HAS A STRAIN; NOT GOING ANYWHERE FAST, UNTIL IT GETS TO 40 MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. WE HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP, ALTERNATOR, AND BATTERY. EACH TIME WE CHANGED A PART, THE CAR WOULD BE FINE FOR A FEW MONTHS. I AM AFRAID WHEN THIS HAPPENS THAT SOMEONE IS GOING TO PLOW INTO ME BECAUSE THEY CAN'T STOP IN TIME AS MY CAR IS GOING TOO SLOW. MY HUSBAND SEEMS TO THINK IT'S NOT AS MUCH THE TRANSMISSION AS MAYBE SOMETHING ELECTRICAL. NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS SEEING AS THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THING. SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE KILLED OR PROBABLY ALREADY HAS, BUT NO ONE CAN TELL WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT IF THE DRIVER IS DEAD! I LOVE THE CAR AND WOULD BUY ANOTHER NISSAN, BUT I WILL RESEARCH THEM FIRST! I AM GLAD TO SEE IT IS NOT MY IMAGINATION ABOUT THE CAR JUMPING WHILE ACCELERATING. IT SEEMS TO ONLY DO IT WHEN I AM DRIVING, BUT IT STOPS JUMPING WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR.

THE TRANSMISSION ON MY 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA 3.5 SE IS JERKING AND SLIPPING/SPINNING SEVERELY. IT STARTED AROUND 90,000 MILES. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DOWN SHIFTING OR SLOWING DOWN AND WHEN TAKING OFF. IT'S SO BAD WHEN TAKING OFF, YOU CAN SEE THE CAR JERK. WHEN TAKING OFF, THE CAR HESITATES UNTIL JERKING INTO LOW GEAR.

TRANSMISSION SLIPS SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. ENGINE RPMS REV TO APPROX. 5000-6000. WHEN THE CAR FINALLY SHIFTS,THERE IS A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE THAT COMES IN THE REAR END OF THE CAR. *TR

TRANSMISSION ISSUES.ROUGH SHIFTING, HIGH REVS WHEN TRAVELING AT 25 MPH. AFTER AN ABRUPT STOP THE CAR WILL REMAIN IN A HIGHER GEAR WHEN MOVING FROM A STOP, AND WILL SOMETIME THROW A SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT.IT REQUIRES THE CAR TO BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED TO GET CAR TO RESET TO ITS CORRECT GEAR.

THE CAR TURNED 100000 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SHIFT HARD WHEN ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING. THE TRANSMISSION WOULD ALSO SLIP WHEN GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT TRAVEL SPEED,

"TAMARA INFLATORS" SEAT BELTS DIDN'T LOCK OR LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. SMASHED BODY ALL THE WAY TO BACK SEAT BOTTOM TO GROUND. ENGINE WAS IDLING VERY HIGH FELT/SOUND AS IF WE WERE GOING 60 BUT ONLY WAS GOING 40. NO AIR BAGS CAME ON. BRAKES GRINDING. BACK WINDOW BLEW OUT AND TIRES FLAT IN BACK.. WINDOWS SLOW ON DRIVERS SIDE. WHEN THE SHERIFF TAHOE HIT US AT 80MPH ON U.S. 40 GREENFIELD IN WAS IN THE SHOP AT J&M TRUCK AN TRAILER ON THE WEST SIDE OF INDIANAPOLIS HAVING THE OIL LEAKED FIXED AND TIRES ALL FIXED AND ROTORS AND LIGHTS BY [XXX] A COUPLE MONTHS PRIOR. I HAD MY LITTLE GIRL IN THE BACK SEAT AS WELL WHERE SHERIFF HIT AND RAN. I UPLOADED A BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURE. VIN#[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

DRIVING HOME WITH CAR ON CRUISE CONTROL AND VEHICLE ON ITS ON ACCORD REVVED THE RPMS OVER 5000 AND THEN WE HEARD A METAL CLINKING AND LISTED ALL POWER.

TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND BREAKS MOTOR MOUNTS. TORE UP THE TRANSMISSION AND ALMOST CAUSED NUMEROUS WRECKS. SLIPS FROM DRIVING FROM THE START. ISN'T ALWAYS SLIPPING BUT WHEN IT DOES IT'S BAD. WORSE IN STREET THAN ON HIGHWAY.

TRANSMISSION STARTED JERKING IN THE FREEWAY JUMPING SPEED AND COMING DOWN ON SPEED WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET A CHECK HE TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION WENT OFF WHICH BROKE MY TRANSMISSION MOUNTS AND COIL CAR HAD ALL MAINTENANCE DONE REGULARLY AND NEVER WAS MENTIONED ABOUT THE ISSUE OR ENGINE LIGHT NEVER WENT ON
