The component that malfunctioned is the gearshift. The vehicle gets stuck in the park position and the gear shift does not want to release the vehicle from this position. My safety is put at risk because of the vehicle malfunction. The dealer was informed of the problem. Last week the service technician said they would service the malfunction. However, they refused to provide the service to the gearshift instead stating the gearshift worked "well". Dealer further stated they would recommend replacing the gear shift if the malfunctioning continued to reoccur. I asked the dealer to replace the gear shift. The dealer refused to service the malfunction. The dealer passed the vehicle through state inspection. There are no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms prior to the malfunction occurring. However, the dealer replaced a light bulb during the inspection procedure. The malfunction started to occur in September 2021. The dealer was notified of the malfunction at that time and also refused to service upon notification.

The transmission of the vehicle was repaired 6 months after the purchase in 2016 by the dealer. Currently, this Nissan car agency no longer exists, the problem reappeared, failure to start due to insecurity when driving

I was driving to work when my car stalled and stopped in the middle of the road. I was almost t boned and mortified. The car turns on, if you press the gas it’s attempting to go but it doesn’t go anywhere. Nissan is now saying that they can’t do anything about this because the warranty was expired in July however this has not only happened to me but over a dozen other clients. This is absurd and unprofessional. Your vehicles are dangerous to drive at this point and I would not recommend as safe due to this. Was there a crash? No, but you shouldn’t wait until someone’s life is taken to do something about it. Was I physically injured or harmed? No, but mentally I was. I love Nissan and was hoping to get another, but this incident does not sit well with me. The assistance I am getting also does not sit well with me, it’s like they don’t even care what happens.

CVT transmission. We bought the car February 2021 at approximately 95,000 miles I have 106,000 miles & the CVT transmission needs replaced. I saw there were class action lawsuits against them I California but I'm the Texas. I called Nissan headquarters & was told there was nothing they could do to help me. I stalled in traffic, it jerked & rattled & I thought the tires were going to fall off. I was then scared to drive. I took it to a transmission shop in my town & they said it was the CVT transmission. Nissan told us to take it to a Nissan dealer. They said it was the CVT transmission. Over $4,500.00 to replace it. Please help me.
