While I’m driving it starts to stall. Especially after I press on the breaks and try to press on the gas again it being ins to like jerk and not want to go. I thought it was my suspension or that it needed a wheel alignment but after paying for those to get renewed it’s still having that problem and the mechanic said it was most likely the transmission.

Transmission failure in under 3 years. I replaced my transmission and rear assembly in 2022-23. It started with pressing the gas pedal and the car wouldn’t accelerate while in heavy traffic. I spent over $3,000 on a brand new engine. Come 2024 the exact same problem with the repair price being quoted at around $7,000. There was no hard driving on the car so I don’t understand how it’s going so soon. I’ve never had so much trouble with a car.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Sentra. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle jerked and lost automotive power. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal, but the vehicle failed to respond as needed. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to coast to the side of the road. After several attempts, the vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to the residence. A mobile mechanic arrived at the residence and diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was then towed to another independent mechanic, who confirmed that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was towed to the daughter's residence. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

As I was driving on the interstate, traffic came to a complete stop. When the traffic resumed, approximately 2-3 minutes later, I took my foot off the brake to press the gas pedal and vehicle would not drive. I tried shifting the gears to see if the vehicle was stuck in gear, it was not. My vehicle came to a complete halt in a "kill zone" area of the interstate without any mechanical malfunction warning and this is unsatisfactory. My transmission was replaced in 2020 because of a recall issue and now not even 5 years later, I am having issues with the same transmission. The dealer informed me that the CVT Transmissions on my model and others of the same year, are no good. They have several other vehicles waiting for the same repair with the same issues. I truly believe this issue could potentially lead to a life-or-death situation especially with the issue coming out of nowhere. I am requesting that a national recall be issued on the transmissions before some potentially loses their li...
