2016 Nissan Altima Transmission Problems

I purchased this vehicle from Drivetime in Las Vegas off Decatur Blvd in December of 2021. I was not advised these particular make and models could have CVT Transmission failure. It has the SR Sports Model transmission, so I always thought when I had it in sport mode that the RMP's stayed high and the car would jerk if I let off the gas not knowing the transmission was actually faulty. In March of 2024 the vehicle stalled multiple time while at the gas station after filling up my gas tank. There was a Meineke in the same parking lot, I got the car going and quickly parked. They ran the codes since the check engine light had came on and told me P0776 was a faulty transmission. That these cars have known problem with transmission failure. They cleared the code and said if it comes back on it's going to go out quickly. I was told to baby the car, I barely drive anywhere but for work purposes and to the grocery store until last week the car had some major issues and check engine light came on. Ran codes and it was P0776 again. This last year I have experienced loss of power while driving and making a left turn. I did get hit once but the person left the scene, and I did not know what to do. So, I kept driving as the vehicle was not to the point of not being driven and I don't exactly have a large bank account to fix things like this as they come up. I have been ill paying for medical out of pocket and my deductible is $1500. Plus my father passed and I had to help pay for funeral and other expenses. I was told to reach out to NHTSA about this issue to see what could be done to help me out.

I was driving on the freeway with my 6yr & 11yr daughters when my car stop accelerating and started to slow down I’ll hit the gas pedal and the RPMS will go up but the car wouldn’t advance ! I had to get off the freeway before the car completely stopped in the middle of the freeway as the velocity of the vehicle was getting slower and slower !

Transmission slippage or failure to engage when trying to accelerate onto highway. Transmission would slip during acceleration causing other motorists to have to immediately slow or stop to avoid collision. Identified by Nissan service that transmission needs replacement.

No injuries or accident but this vehicle has two serious problems . The head lights are almost non existent. you can not drive faster than 25 MPH with out over driving you lighted area...

My car has several problems with accelerating either during highway speeds or from a dead stop. First , the car starts fine and engine runs fine, does not idle rough or stall out. The problems arise after driving for a few miles and I come to a complete stop, either at a stop light or sign.

Car was stopped at a stop sign. When it was clear I attempted to proceed and turn left. The car began to roll then wouldn't accelerate causing me to block both lanes with oncoming vehicles.

I only had my vehicle(2016NissanAltima) for less than 2 weeks before the vehicles major problems started. The engine consistently Stalls, Surges and Shudders. As well as the Shifter locking itself to where it wont shift out of park.

Vehicle unexpectedly stalls WITHOUT illuminating brake lights! MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE with AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAULTY CVT. (Potential causes to unexpected Collisions) It unexpectedly Shakes, hesitates while shifting, struggles to change gear, wont change gear, stalls, and makes noise such as whining and/or grinding.

VEHICLE: 2016 Nissan Altima SL. I have a Nissan Altima, which is known to have CVT transmission issues. My issues started all of a sudden when my car immediately lost acceleration in the middle of moving traffic, resulting in my car almost being rear-ended on the highway.

I have had this 2016 Nissan Altima SR for the past 5 years (1st owner) and it just began giving me acceleration issues about 2 months ago. At random times, while at a stop, reversing, doing a u-turn or changing gears, I step on the accelerator and it will not move.

Upon arriving to my grandson's daycare, I applied by brake and put my car in park and suddenly my car accelerated at a fast speed. My car moved forward across an area that the children are usually playing in, but because it was raining they were inside. I can't even imagine what would have happened.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving various speeds, the vehicle experienced unintended acceleration and deceleration. The contact had to place the key fob next to the push to start button to start the vehicle.

The CVT transmission in my 2016 Nissan Altima causes my vehicle to experience sudden shaking or jerking and to occasionally stall after a traffic stop while driving. I have been in near accidents based on this CVT issue as there is no way to anticipate when my vehicle will experience the aforementioned problems.

My wife was driving our 16 altima that just crossed 50k miles on 3/20/21 when she could not accelerate after stopping at a red light. She noticed the rpms were moving higher but the vehicle would not move. She turned off the car while in the middle of the road and was able to restart it.

While driving my nissan altima at highway speeds, the transmission started to shudder and eventually stopping pulling in the middle of traffic. I was almost hit by an 18 wheeler that bare had enough time and space to swerve and go around me. This could've easily been a fatal accident because of a faulty CVT transmission that nissan knows about but refuses to correct.

The vehicle shifter assembly will not allow the vehicle to be shifted from park to reverse or drive. Once the vehicle is moving it operates normally.

Delayed response in acceleration. Almost caused accident onto oncoming traffic. After driving over 30 minutes at the first stop light it always takes 3 seconds extra to accelerate.

I have a 2016 nissan altima with 85,000 miles that is currently experiencing some issues. I've found multiple people online that are having the same problem. The vehicle at times when pushing down the accelerator will not respond then suddenly take off like it's in 3rd gear.

Started vehicle this morning and put in reverse and pressed the pedal to back out and had a delayed reaction and the RPM's just increased. The car did not move for approximately four to five seconds and finally backed out.

When driving in rush hour traffic with a lot of stopping and starting, the car hesitates for a few seconds when I push on the gas after a red light or stop sign. It has not caused an accident or injury yet but it's just a matter of time. I can't believe there is no recall on the transmission when so many people have had this same issue!

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that three days after the vehicle underwent a routine oil change, the continuously variable transmission (CVT) failed to properly change over for the vehicle to accelerate. The vehicle went from 65 MPH to less than 45 MPH, which caused the risk of a crash.

The car is barely 3 years old and I brought it new with only 8 miles. The car started hesitating while in stop and go traffic on the interstate. That's where I noticed the hesitation first.

The car stalls and hesitates when trying to accelerate from full stop. When you push the pedal it does nothing, for the first few moments, then it pushes hard. I have almost been in an accident.

Since June of 2022, my car has been in service repair a total of 10 times. Each time my check engine comes on, the diagnostic codes always involve the A/F sensor. This started at 35,000 miles and Nissan cannot figure out the issue.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that after stopping at a traffic light, the light turned green, and the contact depressed the accelerator pedal however, the vehicle jerked and stalled. There was no warning light illuminated.

My wife's car started having problems with acceleration lately. At a stop the car would sometimes have problem accelerating and I would have to tap on the gas pedal a few times. If that doesn't work, I would have to keep on pressing the gas pedal without releasing it.

I’m starting to experience issues with the CTV transmission. I’m experiencing jerking and stalling while driving on a busy highway with cars traveling 55mph or more. It is extremely dangerous driving when these things occur when cars are traveling at those speeds and the vehicle hesitate without warning.

The car has been experiencing transmission problems since about 95,000 miles. I contacted Nissan of North America about the issue and they told me they knew of the issue, extended warranty to 88,000 miles. I bought car used with 87,000 and no issue until 95,000.

CVT failed while driving on a busy inclined highway (towards Denver Airport) without any prior warning or check engine alert. The car came to a complete stop before I can judge the problem and pull over. Got it towed to the nearest Nissan service center (Tynan's Nissan, Denver) where they identified code P0776 and P17F0 after inspection.

When you are driving down the road and come to a stop the car will stall and not go like it is not shifting! The check engine light comes on sometimes sometimes it don’t. It may get up to 40 MPH when this happens sometimes it might not go at all!

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle failed to accelerate and instead decelerated. On another occasion while driving approximately 20-30 MPH, the vehicle was jerking with an abnormal ticking sound.

I just purchased this vehicle with 93,000 miles and good condition. A warning or indicator light never comes on but sporadically I will be driving around 40-50mph & if I let off of the gas something happens where no matter how hard or fast I press the accelerator the car looses power. I can press the accelerator all the way to the floor & still not speed up.

Starting at around 80k miles I noticed a bit of jerking and stalling while driving with no warning indicator and got it checked out 2 times and was told it was a battery issue and bought a new battery.

Car loses power while driving on highways or roads and had nearly cost me my life on occasion where the vehicle cannot complete a turn from loss of power and I cannot proceed and obstruct oncoming vehicle paths. It has also revved up out of the blue to 6000-7000 RPMs despite a holding steady pace on the gas pedal. The speed jolts and has nearly caused me to rear end unsuspecting vehicles.

I was driving down the highway and my 2016 Nissan Altima began jerking and trying to stall, then jerking me forward again quite hard. I had to pull over in fear of hitting someone or my car becoming out of control. I have since discovered that it is the CVT transmission.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle shut-off without warning. The contact restarted the vehicle however, while approaching a stop light, she heard an abnormal knocking sound coming from the engine with an unknown warning light illuminated.

Car was fine. Had it serviced 4 months ago and was told car was in good condition. Today got an check engine light.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was not drivable.

While driving the vehicle down the highway the car will continuously shake, surge, vibrate, and fail when attempting to accelerate. My vehicle has stalled with my kids in the vehicle, in front of oncoming traffic. I lost complete power including headlights, power steering, and mobility of the car.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that while driving at 35 MPH, the vehicle shifted to first gear without warning. The contact managed to veer to the shoulder of the road turned the vehicle off and waited for about 5 min to see if the vehicle would then resume normal operation.

Check engine light came on around same time car began to exhibit acceleration issues, like stalling, slipping into 2nd gear, and engine cut out when accelerating during both normal city and highway driving. Sensors read by certified mechanic, and dealership indicated oxygen sensor failure and the dealership replaced the CVT transmission and the o2 sensor.

Check engine light came on twice within 3 months of using this car. And it was one of the severe types of illness the car has, if not fixed I could've been stuck on a remote area with no phone reception, which where I live by the way. The car had a slow acceleration, when I stopped on a stop light/sign.

Stopped and when pulling out lost power and while driving lost power and RPM went really high it was like the transmission wouldn't shift turned vehicle off then was able to drive has done this several times within a week

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that the vehicle was included in three unknown recalls. While the contact's friend was driving at an unknown speed and attempting to stop, the vehicle shut off without warning.

My car stalls acellaration RPM high. Ans slows downs on its own without using the brake city driving stop and go traffic and highway at times I have a scanner I got coed e8 and e9 was told by the dealership where I purchased the car it nothing wrong with my car I have it towed because it kept stalling.

On the 14th of june, 2019 I was driving to work. When suddenly I felt my car power decreasing as I pressed the gas. Soon as that happen I new something was wrong so for my safety and other I took the nearest exited to local street and found a safe area to check my car.

I had stopped at a red light, when it turned green my car stalled and wouldn't accelerate. Once it did, it wouldn't pick up speed. Car will go up to 4rpm and will only go 10-15 miles p/hr.

Call stalls and RPM revs out of control. Stopped at red light, light turned green and car went into neutral state and began rolling backwards. Pressed gas pedal all the way to the floor, only for car to barely move through major intersection and traffic.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving, the vehicle jerked, shuddered, and the speed decreased from 70 to 20 MPH. The vehicle was able to be pulled over to the road shoulder.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving approximately 70 MPH, the vehicle began to decelerate while maximum pressure was applied to the accelerator pedal. The vehicle eventually began to drive normally; however, the failure recurred fifteen minutes later.

Car started hesitating while driving 75 on the interstate and lost power went to 10 MPH then the rpms will go up but the car hesitates and jerks service engine light came on had it tested its the transmission fluid sensor which cant be replaced the whole transmission has to be replaced and this car has less then 80000 miles thats insane

CVT transmission slipping, delayed changing of gears, no response of gas pedal. My altima rolls into traffic with me pressing the gas there is a 3-5 second delay before taking off. Very dangerous.

This vehicle was purchased new from anderson nissan - lake havasu city, az and we also purchased the extended warranty (up to 60,000 miles). At approximately 64,000 miles the transmission broke down completely. When this was towed to the originating dealership, we specifically asked if there were any "known transmission issues" with this vehicle make/model/year.

2016 nissan altima 2.5sr CVT transmission failure at 26k miles. While in motion going freeway speeds, vehicle suddenly loses power when attempting to maintain cruising speed and rpms fluctuated intensely up and down. Felt very unsafe while trying to pull over to the shoulder and feared other vehicles could have struck me while having no control over vehicle speed.

Had the vehicle checked out at the local dealer due to the RPM's jumping on the freeway at high speed. Told all was well, no problems. A week later my car lost all power pulling out into oncoming traffic with my daughter in the car.

2016 altima, barely 3 years old, 71,000 miles. About a week ago, the car began to jerk and shudder and RPM's jump up and down when I accelerate from a stop. Before the day was over, it was happening while I was driving (any where from 0-60+MPH).

While driving, the car would decrease in speed and acted if it wanted to stall.I took the car in for an appointment at the dealership and was told it was reading a code with the transmission and as scheduled to come in 3 days l as later when the part was in. After being at the dealership almost half a day, they tell me the transmission needed to be rebuilt.

On saturday, my check engine light went on. I went to a car shop late afternoon at and they read codes for 2 issue w/transmission and 1 code for ABS. The car is stalls at stoplights, reverse does not work at all times excessive exhaust was coming out of tailpipes.

Rpms were jumping up during normal driving and even when the car was coasting. Eventually (about 30 minutes later while trying to make it to a safe stopping point) the car would not move forward or in reverse. This occurred while driving on hiwhay and on smaller roads (35 MPH) also.

I was driving the car pulled up at stop light when light turned green I press the gas call would not get power until a few second the car would jerk an shift while driving was almost hit from the rear by another car due to this issue took it to autozone code read p0841 something with transmission I just got the car rarely drive it it has 53,909 miles an now it's in the shop hoping I don't have to pay for this

While driving I felt a slight stutter or jerking of the vehicle. I noticed that as I depressed the accelerator, speed did not increase. The car would slowly move forward then all of a sudden the car stalled.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving 70 MPH, the vehicle stalled and the check engine indicator illuminated. The contact was able to drive the vehicle home.

While already in motion the vehicle accelerated extremely slowly once again as I have reported on this website before, but this time it was more dangerous because as I was merging onto the freeway, I was pressing on the accelerator and when the RPM got to 2000, it stopped and the vehicle was accelerating extremely slow.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle hesitated to accelerate and failed to drive smoothly on occasion. The vehicle was taken to olympia nissan (2220 carriage st sw, olympia, wa 98502), but was not diagnosed.

My transmission stopped working while I was driving first in the city and it continued to when I went on the highway to the point I had no power and the when I pressed the gas nothing would happen. I had to have the computer in the transmission replaced and the car still idles as if it will cut off at any moment. That was at 40k and I just had to replace the o2 sensor at 60k

Delayed gear change from 1st to 2nd/delayed acceleration 1-5 seconds mid-traffic because the car overheats soon after driving which causes the car to not properly accelerate causing more RPMs than necessary during longer drives with frequent stops (within urban/suburban areas).

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at various speeds and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to respond while the engine was running. The contact stated that the vehicle responded and returned to normal functionality after depressing the accelerator pedal several times. The contact stated that the failure was more evident while driving in cold weather. No warning light was illuminated. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 84,000.

While i was driving the transmission felt as if it was slipping and didn't want to switch gears. When i stopped at a red light it didn't want to kick into drive it took like 3 -4 minutes to kick in no warning lights came on it just started messing up when I took it to get it looked at the code p17f0 came up. Im still paying a 429 car note on this vehicle and can not drive it plus the Carmax Care coverage i had on the car, is unusable!! So now im stuck with a broken car that im still paying on.

The transmission started slipping at 70,000 miles on the Altima, even after getting a preventative transmission service at 30,000 miles. A mechanic revealed a judder code, which means the transmission will stop working within weeks. A repair would cost more than the car is worth. My wife could have been stranded in traffic. This is unacceptable. No warning lights appeared on the dash.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while attempting to drive from a complete stop, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to respond. The contact stated that upon depressing the accelerator pedal a second time, the vehicle responded as intended; however, the failure recurred at the next stop. The contact stated that the gas cap warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that upon inspecting the gas cap, no issue was found. The vehicle was taken to Auto Zone, where the failure was linked to the transmission. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

-Nissan made their Altimas and other vehicles using a CVT transmission that was of poor design and quality. -Nissan has admitted to this in several class action lawsuits, [XXX] ) and has extended their powertrain warranty and time period as a result. -The extended powertrain warranty is to cover up until 84k miles, the mileage on the Nissan Altima in question is just over 82k, well under the mileage limit. -Nissan corporate has denied repairs for this particular Nissan Altima under both their financial assistance and goodwill programs, despite having done so for many other Altima, Murano, Maxima, etc... owners. -Nissan is denying assistance based on two points: First, they claim that the time has expired. My claim is that transmissions fail due to poor engineering and quality, as well as wear and tear - NOT due to an arbitrary point of time when the clock hand strikes 12 midnight. In other words, transmissions due not wear out based upon an arbitrary time schedule. Secondly, Nissan is denying assistance and suggested that the warranty is void due to a lack of dealer maintenance, in violation of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which protects consumers' rights to choose where they have their car serviced without voiding the warranty.

My 96 year old mom purchased 2016 Alltima 8 years ago. It now has 59,000 0riginal miles on it and the CVT transmission is failing we were told at the nissan service center where the car was purchased. Nissan has refused to help pay for any repairs. So 96 year old woman living on fixed income has to pay. Go back to Japan NISSAN

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the vehicle failed to properly accelerate, and the vehicle was jerking and lurching while driving. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the transmission was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 100,000.

Sometimes when you push the gas to take off after coming to a stop my 2016 Altima will not accelerate for several seconds. The RPMs will go high but the car won't move for several seconds and then it moves very slow for several more seconds. If it doesn't straighten up on its own I've discovered I can turn the car off for a few seconds and restart it. When I do this the transmission will work again. I've almost been struck by another car more than once when I attempted to pull out of a business and my car "stalls". I think Nesaun should fix this problem before someone is killed or seriously hurt. This has been an ongoing problem since I got the car in 2019 with 35000 miles on it.

As I was driving on the highway , I experienced loss of power, acceleration issues, slipping between gears, whining noise, hesitating, and jerking I had no warning signs no lights come on on my vehicle to notify me of any type of problems. This all happened when I was driving on the highway. My car went from driving perfectly normal to no longer working. I took my car to a mechanic they run a diagnostic. They also test drove in and inspected the car and said my transmission is failing and it needs to be replaced and that this has been a common issue in Nissan Altima between 80,000 and 100,000 miles

I am the new owner of a 2016 Nissan Altima with approximately 179,000 miles, and I am experiencing a complete transmission failure despite Nissan’s claims that their CVT transmissions are reliable. After researching, I discovered that Nissan has faced multiple class-action lawsuits regarding faulty CVT transmissions, which led to warranty extensions in the past. However, I was told by Nissan Customer Affairs that those extensions have ended, and they refused to offer any assistance, even though this is a well-documented, known defect. As a new owner, I do not have access to the vehicle’s full service history, but there are no reported service issues or previous transmission failures according to the BAR website. Regardless, this failure is consistent with thousands of other complaints from Nissan Altima owners, and it is unacceptable that Nissan refuses to take responsibility. Additionally, there are two active recalls on my vehicle (hood latch and door handle issues), but I cannot even bring the car in for recall repairs due to the transmission failure. I am requesting that Nissan takes this matter seriously. If Nissan continues to ignore its responsibility, I will escalate this complaint further.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving up an incline at 65–70 MPH, the vehicle hesitated and briefly lost automotive power. The vehicle returned to normal functionality. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the stop lamp switch and wiring had failed. The vehicle was not repaired. Most recently, the contact stated that while driving up an incline at 60-70 MPH, the vehicle hesitated and briefly lost automotive power. No warning lights were illuminated. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 140,000.

Hello, I own a 2016 Nissan Altima 2.5L SL with 100,000 miles on it. We've owned it since new and have taken very good care of it. Always kept in garage. All maintenance schedules have been followed, and the oil has been changed every 5,000 to 7,000 miles with full synthetic oil. About a year ago, at 90,000 miles, stepping on the accelerator pedal would do nothing, then, it would lurch forward at high RPM after 3 to 5 seconds. This occurs after coming to a complete stop. This only happens if the vehicle has been driven for at least an hour or so - especially on hot days. No check engine lights were coming on. After shutting off the vehicle and letting it cool down completely, the issue goes away until it is driven for an hour again, then the problem presents itself again. I've nearly been killed at some intersections as the vehicle will not accelerate for a few seconds. I have taken the vehicle into Tuffy Auto in Waukesha - they replaced the O2 Sensors, the Brake Light Switches (both), and the Mass Air Flow Sensor. This cost me about $1500 but the problem still remains. They've checked for codes, but nothing can be found. I like working with those guys, but they were unable to find the issue. I also took it into Nissan in Waukesha and they charged me $150 to diagnose the problem. they said nothing could be replicated after keeping the vehicle for a day. They instructed me to bring it back when it was reproducing. One day last summer, it would not accelerate at any stop. Taking 5 to 10 seconds before it would accelerate. I limped it over to Nissan Waukesha at 3pm in the afternoon and their service advisor immediately said there was nothing he could do for me. He was extremely rude and unhelpful. I explained that I had brought it to them while the issue was present, but he insisted there was nothing he could do for me. After doing some research, I've discovered hundreds, if not thousands of Altima owners with the same issue. Various forums and online postings of th

REPAIR SHOPS ESTIMATE STATES; AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (3102M3VX0CRE) NEEDS TO BE REMOVED & REPLACED, (Combination) CRANKSHAFT MAIN OIL SEAL REMOVE & REPLACE, (Combination) TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER & LINES - Flush - FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT, CVT PROGRAMMING which is totaling $5,714.48. This cost will cost me a hardship as I am a person with disabilities. I don't feel it is fair that the extended warranty has a time limit as this was not a good solution for those that don't drive much. I am being told it expired in 2023. Had I driven more this recalled CVT would have damaged sooner and been covered. I am extremely afraid to drive this car like this.

2016 Nissan Altima has approximately 89,300 miles and the continuously variable transmission (CVT) had to be replaced. Nissan is well aware of the CVT issues. A few years ago, due to class-action lawsuits regarding the CVT, Nissan offered extended warranty for all impacted vehicles for 7 years and 84,000 miles, whichever comes first. Our vehicle was less than 6,000 miles outside of that warranty. And went out about 1 year after that warranty. Due to a separate warranty we purchased at the time the Certified Pre-owned Altima was bought (with about 9,200 miles on it), we were covered for 7 years or 100,000 miles additional warranty, whichever came first. For the warranty we paid for, we were over by 1 year and 3 months but under in mileage; Nissan agreed to pay half of the CVT replacement cost. We have copies of the warranties and receipts. Car began to skip/stall in late 2024. Check engine light came on. Code was run at Nissan Dealership in January 2025 that said CVT was bad. We had the CVT replaced at a Nissan Dealership and had to pay for 1/2 the CVT replacement. Impacted Nissan CVTs should be mandatory recalled and Nissan should be required to pay full cost of CVT replacements for those Nissans due to the widespread and known issues.

Car enters lymph mode, transmission failure car fails to move. Incident occurs randomly while driving on the highway placing driver and passengers at risk of being hit from behind. Nissan transmissions are notorious for transmission failures. This is the second Nissan Altima I have owned with the same transmission problem Vehicle only has approximately 60,000 miles and already failing. No warning lights came on nor other indications of malfunction. Transmission has been serviced by Nissan oil and filter have been changed. Transmission is warranted for 100,000 miles or seven years. The vehicle is a 2016 and has just passed the warranty. Previous Altima transmission was warranted for 100,000 miles regardless of the number of years. This is the third time transmission has fallen into safe mode on the freeway

I opened Complaint Number 11539204 on 08/17/2023 concerning issues with the car stalling, delayed shifting and gear slippage. I had the transmission replaced with a new one on 08/18/2023 at Tri-State Nissan Winchester, VA, and now I'm experincing the same issue with this new transmission. I was told that the warrenty for the enw transmission was only 12 months/12K miles. I paid over $5K for this new transmission and in a little more than 14 months, the same issues are being experienced. I was told Nissan changed their warranty on 07/2024 for their new transmissions to 36 months/36K miles. I called 1-800-Nissan-1 and got a case created, but they are not able to help in covering the cost to replace this 2nd transmission. There needs to be a recall on these Nissan's CVT.

While driving on interstate 80 RPM started fluctuating as the MPH started decreasing. I had to pull to the side of the freeway and drive at 5mph because that’s all it would let me do. Car had to be towed from Colfax California to the AAMCO in Auburn, California. Had to rent a car that cost me $609. I found out today that the transmission needs to be replaced and the cost will be $6949.03.

The transmission failed in the middle of a traffic controlled intersection. I was almost hit a few times (flashers engaged). No motion was possible in either direction. Was later replaced at a cost of $6100 by a local transmission shop.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost motive power and decelerated independently. On several occasions, the vehicle stalled and failed to immediately restart. The vehicle was taken to the local mechanic who diagnosed and determined that the transmission was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 113,000.

After driving the vehicle for about an hour, when coming to a stop, the vehicle will not accelerate. Stepping in the acceleration pedal does nothing. No RPM increase, nothing.

During normal operation of the vehicle the car suddenly would not accelerate or go faster than 12mph. The transmission failed without warning. I have filed a claim with the manufacturer.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle briefly accelerated independently, before returning to normal functionality. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the continuously variable transmission (CVT). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 75,000.

2016 Altima 66,700 miles At a light, when push the accelerator my car hesitates for about 4 seconds. Then it slowly gains power. This is an accident waiting to happen. 2016 Altima needs a recall. I see multiple complaints on the internet as well.

When I am stopped at a light or in stop and go traffic my car will not accelerate when I put my foot on the gas pedal. I can push it all the way to the floor and my car will not move. It takes about 10 seconds or so then my car will jolt quickly and finally go. I have also had issues with the RPM's shooting up while I am driving at a low rate of speed. This has happened maybe 3 times and I have to pull over and turn my vehicle off then turn it back on and then it seems to drive normally. This issue started several months ago and at first it was just occasionally. Now it is more frequent and happens anytime I am driving. If I turn my car off then turn it back on it seems to correct the issue briefly. I have found myself while stopped in traffic just turning my car off then back on because I am in fear of it happening. This is dangerous as I am at risk of getting hit when I am making a turn at an intersection if my car will not move. I have looked online and it seems other people with Altimas the same year have also experienced similar problems. I have not had the vehicle inspected. There are no warning lights that have come on in the vehicle indicating there is a problem.

I was driving on the interstate highway when I realize that when I was trying to accelerate, the car was not starting to move forward anymore was not able to drive at proper speed on freeway . prior to that, I realize my RPMs was going up and down Had to pull over on freeway shut my car off and let car cool down waited about 10 minutes with off and then restarted it and continue to go seem to be fine at that point but has happened a couple times to me already, driving at normal speed and then it seems like when it’s getting hotter that I would gradually wouldn’t be able to move at normal speed as I needed to be on the freeway. RPMs would eventually start jumping up a down again I end up bringing my car to a Garage have transmission flushed and change screen filter, and oil cool filter still same result. It seems to feel very unsafe when driving on freeway!!!!

It is a known issue that the Stepper Motor on Nissan CVT transmissions are faulty. It causes the vehicle to not accelerate from stopped, which creates a dangerous situation if you are expecting your vehicle to respond when you press the accelerator to make a turn in traffic. When the Stepper Motor is not functioning properly, the driver will depress the accelerator, and the vehicle will not respond for up to 3 seconds. Once the vehicle responds to the depressed accelerator, it jolts the vehicle forward rapidly. Research in Nissan forums and conversations with auto technicians confirm this is an issue, however Nissan has not issued a recall. My research indicates this faulty part effects Nissan Alitmas as far back as 2008, and other Nissan vehicles such as the Nissan Murano.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The contact was almost involved in a crash due to acceleration failure. The contact noticed that the vehicle shuddered before the failure in acceleration. Additionally, the contact noticed that the RPMs were high during the failure. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate above 60 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed transmission. The dealer determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. Three months ago, the contact heard an abnormal sound coming from the passenger's side front end of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and kept for six months; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 76,454.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle began to jerk, after which the vehicle lost motive power. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the transmission. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 106,000.

I was driving today 3/2/24 and speed was about 40-50 and suddenly/randomly the vehicle would do a jerk once it got to about 50 and the rpm’s would jump up between 2-3 and quickly drop back down to normal. I was not pressing the gas hard or a lot just lightly and also the jerking would happen if I was going down in speed from like 60-50 it would randomly jerk again and rpm’s would increase and go back down. Would do this off and on. No check engine lights or any lights what so ever we’re out up on the dash either which made it odd that my car was acting up. My vehicle only has 59,300 miles and has been serviced strictly at dealer for oil and transmission and I have been told that Nissan and their CVT transmissions are no good and transmissions can suddenly “die” on you for no apparent reasoning. Online searches let me to forums that discuss this being a common issue although Nissan has never done any form of recalls. This poses a safety concern in that the car is jerking and rpm’s go crazy for a moment. My vehicle also after being stopped at a traffic light today did not want to accelerate and “go” when I pressed the gas. I creeped up to 20 mph while rpm’s increased and then all of a sudden the car jerked and I was back in motion. I have owned my car since brand new and never have I had any issues.

During driving on interstate highway transmission suddenly failed to shift during acceleration or deceleration. This caused an inability to properly move with flow of traffic to move to emergency lane nearly causing a major Mother Vehicle Accident involving multiple vehicles.

Car just randomly “ gave “ out . I couldn’t accelerate in the middle of intestate traffic !! The engine and the transmission blew at the same time. No warning , no check engine light ! Up to date on oil changes and other maintenance. Car only has 150k miles on it , no way this both happens at the same time. Complete limp mode. Danger to myself and most importantly my kids. How the engine and transmission just fails. Now I’m liable to pay 9,000, no warning no nothing. Complete failure . This isn’t the first time I’ve heard of this year make and model having transmission and engine issues. How terrible!

Vehicle will delay acceleration when I have stopped at a stop sign or stop light especially if I was stopped on a hill. When I press the gas pedal it will delay acceleration for a couple of seconds and then finally take off. It was happening every so often but now it is happening more often.

At 107,000 miles my 2016 Nissan Altima would experience an issue when coming to a stop after about 30 minutes worth of driving. After stopping at a light or stop sign, when I pushed on the gas pedal, nothing happened. I could press the pedal all the way to the floor, and the only change was that the tachometer would go up.

From the Last 1 months, I can see sometimes when I accelerate my car it's not accelerating properly but the RPM is increasing, and sometimes after I stop in traffic when I accelerate my car it's not accelerating immediately and when I press the gas paddle hard suddenly it accelerates. It's a safety concern for me.

Car intermittently fails to accelerate when gas pedal is engaged. Gas pedal has been fully engaged at times and car does not accelerate. Had issues in 2021 and now it is reoccurring.

CVT issues. with shudder in speed control and lack of transmission staying engaged seems like it is popping in and out of gear at any speed. lack of power and changes in speed creates safety issues with other drivers on the road.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle made an abnormal sound and the RPM’s revved up and the vehicle started shuddering. There was no warning light illuminated.

Transmission failing. Will not take off from stand still, then jerks and goes after revving. Jerks badly and shudders when accelerating, then refuses to accelerate to highway speeds over 55mph.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while at a stop light, the vehicle failed to accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. Additionally, on other occasions while attempting to accelerate, the vehicle failed to respond as needed with the accelerator pedal depressed.

My 2016 Altima began loosing power in spurts, wouldn't move after stopping until accelerator was pushed to the floor then it would lunge forward. Took the car to a dealership and found out the transmission needed replaced at 91,000 miles!

On 8/11/22,I was driving my car and came to a stoplight. I went to accelerate and the car seemed slow to respond when I applied the accelerator. This happened several times during this one particular trip.

CVT transmission failed. We are safe but the situation cause a lot of stress. The problem had been confirmed by Ancot transmission in South Carolina and the transmission had to be replace.

I have been having transmission issues, started in 2019 I have taken it to multiple dealership they can never find the issues, after my vehicle warranty expired they miraculously found the issue with my CVT transmission, when calling nissan customer care they would only cover 2500.. after I havr been taking it over 2 years to 4 different dealerships

Evidently there have been numerous issues with 2016 Nissan Altima transmissions that Nissan has neglected to issue a recall for. Mine started several months ago, sometimes I'll be driving, stop at a light and the car will just not move. Additionally it will sometimes just start revving over 6K RPM while driving on the highway.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while making a left turn at a stop light, the vehicle began to hesitate without warning. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal to the floorboard as the hesitation continued before resuming normal operation.

Vehicle jerks as RPM needle rapidly bounces between 10rpm and 40rpm when accelerating, sometimes subtle jerk when decelerating.

I have intermittent acceleration issues and high RPM revving on my car, which causes safety issues especially when making left turns across traffic. This seems to be a common problem. I have not taken to a Nissan dealer yet, but have talked to one and they say I need a new transmission probably for $6,000.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the gear shifter failed to shift into the intended gear and often failed to shift into any gear, which is an overt and considerable safety issue. The contact had to insert a pen into the gear shifter to correct the failure; however, this work-around was often not successful and the car was not able to be driven safely.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle hesitated during acceleration while the accelerator pedal was depressed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) needed to be replaced.

My 2016 Altima is experiencing hesitation when accelerating, jerking and shuddering while driving. The RPMs go up but the car doesn't respond. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection.

My car only have 85000 mile on it and it jerks sometimes and was told it was a Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch A Circuit Range/Performance and after doing research a lot of people transmission are doing the same thing. Nissan should be made to fix the problem

While trying to pull out of a intersection, car will not move or will move very slowly. I have almost been t-boned twice with my family in the car. This happens intermittently, 4 times in the past year.

Acceleration from stand still occasionally does not occur. This causes us to press harder on the acceleration pedal and suddenly the car accelerates with high RPM. There is no check engine light.

I was on the highway taking my newborn and my 2 year old home when the car was not going very fast when I went up a hill. I wasn’t sure what the issue was so I proceeded to drive my car the next day. I was driving at towards and intersection and my car did not stop at a red light, at a 4 way intersection.

Delayed acceleration issue. I am stopped at a light or in traffic and I press on the gas to go and it does nothing at all. This is occurring at various intervals...it just happens.

The transmission has fail it accelerates on its own,jerking,hesitated

I have jerking in what I believe to be the transmission when accelerating.

This vehicle's 1st transmission was changed at a Nissan dealership around 44,000 miles. At 120,000 it started having issues again which effect safety: vehicle would not respond to acceleration, causing the vehicle to be stuck in dangerous situation such as merging or even in the middle of intersections. Nissan is refusing to take responsibility.

CVT Transmission overheats then fails until it cools down.

After driving for a period of time (not too far, but more than just around the block) when I come to a stop at a stoplight or stop sign and try to accelerate again, there is a long delay of around 3-5 seconds and then my car will “launch”. I can push the pedal all the way to the floor and nothing happens. Then it will suddenly take off.

2016 Nissan Altima, driving down highway and car would not accelerate, then jerked forward quite intensely. I felt like I did not have control of the car and feared I was going to hit someone or be hit by someone. I was finally able to get the car pulled over to the shoulder and turned it off.

Engine light came on. My car fail to accelerate and it hesitated. I was told by the dealership that the code showing was the power train control module

The car often hesitated to accelerate when pressing on the gas then all of a sudden it will take off swiftly. It's starting to do it often and there are no check engine lights. This happened with my daughter driving as she made a left hand turn & almost caused her to be hit.

While accelerating from a complete stop, the vehicle shudders or jerks but the engine rpms continue to increase. The problem appears to be random.

My 2016 altima sr is experiencing a sporadic delay when accelerating from a stop. It won't rev or do anything for a couple of seconds no matter how far down the pedal is. Then all of a sudden it'll go.

On friday, november 27th as my wife came home from work, she called me to report that the car was behaving strangely, shuddering and losing power. We have never had any drivability issues with this car since we bought it, nor any mechanical problems of any kind.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, he was unable to shift out of park. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated.

While driving towards the end of the trip 250 miles, was cruising about 15 MPH, car was no longer responding to acceleration, engine making loud noise as if struggling and RPM increased about 5000, I drove like this for about 2 miles, no check engine light came on. Next day car drove fine.

My car is jerking back and forth between gears. Very scary. This is happening in motion when I was going from 2nd to 3rd gear going about 30-50 miles.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that while attempting to drive from a stopped position, the vehicle loss motive power and failed to accelerate. The vehicle was taken to southerlin nissan vero beach located at 946 us-1, vero beach, fl 32962.

At first my engine would loose power and I would come to a stop, and then turn off the engine and on, but the engine light would stay on. I brought it to the dealer on 7/19/20 and they did a diagnostic and they said it was the CVT transmission or the body valve. But they told me how much it would cost, so I decided not to get the job done.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that while driving, check engine warning light illuminated and remained illuminated. Additionally, the key not detected message was displayed on the instrument panel.

The car is revving RPM's between 1500-3500 while driving a normal speed or on cruise control on a flat highway. Upon take off, the car is slow to engage. Car is also revving the engine, like hitting the gas while in neutral, even though car is in motion.

Driving down road, car shudders and then loss of all power. Transaxle has/had no forward or reverse gears. No warning or dtc, just quit.

My car after it has warmed up from a stop it will not move when accelerator is depressed , even all the way to the floor, then will all of a sudden take off even peel out and if I continue to drive it will start revving the rpms but barely move. One time the check engine light came on and it showed the solenoid #2 needed to be replaced.

When I come to a complete stop my transmission completely gives out and I have to cut off my car in traffic to restart the transmission. This happens as long as I'm driving my car. I bring it to the dealership and they say they can't find anything wrong.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle loss motive power for 3-4 seconds and an abnormally loud sound was heard coming from the vehicle. There was no warning.

The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH, the vehicle loss motive power and failed to respond with the accelerator pedal depressed with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was turned off and restarted and operated as intended.

Does not shift properly, after driving for long periods of time the vehicle will not accelerate, it bucks when it down shifts, makes clicking noises randomly. The vehicle does not move after idling after long periods of usage. (the fuel delivery is messed up).

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH, the vehicle hesitated while the RPM gauge fluctuated. The accelerator pedal was depressed however, the speed was limited to approximately 30 MPH.

Shaking, automatic slowing speed, pick up takes time, engine light on dealer said transmission issue cost 4850 plus tax. This is nissan altima 2016 only 71000. This is absolutely killing consumer finance.

The car has a CVT transmission that is not functioning properly. The transmission shudders, acclerates on its own, or turns off completely when it warms, it is not safe to drive on the freeway or drive in warm weather due to the fact that the car shuts off when it heats up. It is unsafe to drive, it continues to be a problem with many of nissans CVT transmissions that they are not fixing.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While accelerating from a stop, the vehicle failed to regain acceleration in a timely manner. The failure was experienced numerous times.

16 nissan altima sometimes has about a 5 second delay in acceleration as car just idles and slowly rolls ahead. This is very dangerous when you are taking off and crossing on coming traffic. Took it to nissan dealer they said nothing they can do because it doesnt show an error code.

I was on the highway and the car started jerking like it didn't want to go and I got off the highway because it was unsafe..made it to a stop light and the car didn't want to go..but it went after a couple of tries..I went shopping and got back on the highway to head home and the check engine light comes on and went to get it looked at and they tell me a lot of the nissan are having this same problem and it's the transmission which cost a lot of money..I have around 75,000 miles on my nissan altima

The car started shacking once it would go about 25-30 MPH. The check engine light turned on after and it was read by a mechanic as a code p0841-transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch. This happens on city streets and highway driving.

Car started to lurch and whine while driving at any speed. Two weeks later it got worse and started to lose power or fail to accelerate while driving. Now vehicle will not go into gear most times.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AT 30 MILES AN HOUR, WHEN I APPROACHED THE INTERSECTION TO TAKE A TIGHT HAND TURN I WAS YIELDING FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC COMPLETELY STOPPED . WHEN I WENT TO SLIGHTLY MOVE FORWARD TO SEE IF I HAD THE RIGHT AWAY MY CAR JOLTED FORWARD. JUST SPED UP AND WOULD NOT RESPOND TO DE ACCELERATION. I ALMOST CRASHED INTO CHILDREN CROSSING A SIDE WALK. THE ACCELERATION WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF MY CONTROL. THIS HAS HAPPENED A COUPLE OTHER TIMES JUST NOT AS SIGNIFICANT. I DID NOTICE IT'S HAPPENING WHOLE MY AC IS ON.

We were traveling from chicago to springfield, mo and were about 110 miles from home traveling 75 MPH when the car suddenly started to buck, then we heard a brief screeching noise twice. The car would rev up suddenly to 3-4 thousand rpms randomly. The car began to lose power uphill when trying to accelerate.

2016 nissan altima. Consumer writes in regards to defective passenger side airbag and defective keyless push button. *ld the consumer stated other failures included rear doors opening independently, engine was loud, tire pressure sensors were inoperable, and the emergency communication lights were constantly lit.

In march 2019 my vehicle had 54,000 miles. I was stopped at a light & when I hit the gas and the car jerked forward and would not accelerate, leaving me sit in traffic. It eventually moved.

My 2016 altima began to studder and jerk while trying to accelerate and looses power while driving which is an extreme safety concern.

When car is cold it will run normal. When the car heats up the car will not take off. When driving its like you stomp on the brake then start again.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving 40 MPH, the vehicle failed to accelerate when the accelerator pedal was depressed. The contact parked on the side of the road and turned off the ignition.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving various speeds, the vehicle jerked, lunged forward, and the check engine warning indicator illuminated. Hubler nissan (8435 us-31, indianapolis, in 46227, (317) 888-9227) was contacted to schedule a diagnostic appointment.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving 50 MPH, the vehicle decelerated and accelerated on its own and then decelerated again. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the shoulder and then drove to an independent mechanic.

Having issues with transmission. Car check engine goes on and off and vehicle 8s hesitant to change to next gear. I have has the car almost 2 years.

I have a 2016 nissan altima with about 68,000 miles and my transmission has trouble changing gears after driving it for a few minutes. As I change gears from 0 to 40 MPH, the car starts jerking or takes a while to reach 40 MPH. It also happens when I'm driving around the city and I make a full stop at a stop light.

Takata recall. My car started messing up after I came back from texas. It was doing fine until it started losing power.

My vehicle's CVT transmission failed at 97,000 miles. I experienced the same symptoms everyone else has experienced with this transmission - vibrations, wildly fluctuating rpms and frequent downshifts. Within a matter of a few days the transmission started slipping.

I purchased a 2016 nissan altima in 2017. After about 60,000 miles I noticed it started to jerk when I accelerated. Since my oxygen sensor needed to be replaced I thought that was the issue.

Tl-the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. Check engine light, transmission failed at 60 MPH, lacked forward power. Transmission did not shift properly vehicle unsafe due to lack of motive power taken to advance auto for diagnostic.

My altima started having acceleration issue, took to nissan dealer who advised a transmission issue. Told me it was covered under warranty. Found out a new transmission was needed and covered under an extended plan I paid for; not covered by nissan at all.

CVT had internal failures resulting in a sudden not shifting, shuddering, and slipping, on major highways.

The transmission does not shift properly. After engine is warm, when you push the gas pedal, there is about 5-6 second delay before car will go. If you accelerate to get onto highway from on ramp, it makes a rattling sound.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN INTERMITTENT FAILURE AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO CHANGE GEARS, WHEN NECESSARY, IN ANY GEAR. THE RPMS INCREASED FROM 1,500 TO 4,000; HOWEVER, THE SPEED REDUCED FROM 80 TO 40 MPH. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE FAILURE AND DRASTIC REDUCTION IN SPEED. GOODMAN CHEVROLET CADILLAC NISSAN (1003 HAPPY VALLEY RD, GLASGOW, KY 42141, (270) 678-1300), JIM JOHNSON NISSAN (2200 SCOTTSVILLE RD, BOWLING GREEN, KY 42104, (270) 781-6770), AND AN INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED MECHANIC WERE CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

I have an intermittent problem when I'm driving where all of a sudden I can't accelerate. I'll have the pedal to the floor but nothing absolutely nothing happening. The gas pedal is fully depressed and yet the car slows down the way it would if you took your foot off the gas.

I stopped at a light and proceeded to go forward and the car would not accelerate so I pushed hard on the accelerator and the car just took off. I was on a city street. I took it to my mechanic and he said that it's a problem with the transmission.

'takata recall' I have the 2016 nissan altima I bought it on february 28,2019 and on march 2, 2019 while driving it at 35 miles per hour the transmission wouldn't shift from first gear reving up past 6 on the mark started to jerk and so I took it to a transmission shop they couldn't find anything wrong with it on there scanner they said that models 2012-2016 altima's and versa are having issues shutting down while driving and brakes fail and transmissions do that once car gets somewhat hot nissan needs to recall these cars and fix the issues I've seen it on the news of others complaints and online but nissan still to my knowledge hasn't issued the recall nissan is supposed to be a great car that's why I bought it I've owned the titan no issues and a nissan maxima no real issues either I trust nissans the most to be safe and reliable I have children I can't be stuck because of nissans refusal to make these repairs

We purchased this car last may and shortly there after may be a couple of months after I start experiencing delays on acceleration. I drive on the highway so I use the cruise control. So when I started experiencing the delay on acceleration I stop using the cruise control, because I thought that was the issue.

On wednesday 1/30/2019 my daughter was driving north on I-17 entering flagstaff when the transmission stopped working. The engine was reving to about 6000 RPM but the car would only go about 5 MPH. She managed to get the car to a parking lot and call me for help.

The vehicle was taken to kelly nissan, inc (4300 95th st, oak lawn, il 60453, (708) 499-1000) where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced.

The check engine light came on. The car begin to hesitate

First time, car started at 50,000 miles. Drove the car for 4200 miles, regular maintenance, had occasional drag in acceleration and RPM needle fluctuation, called in and said it was pretty normal due to the heat. Randomly car jutters and loses acceleration, check engine light comes on at 54,000 miles on in town highway road.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving 65 MPH, the check engine indicator illuminated and the vehicle jerked and decelerated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who discovered CVT judder code: p17f0.

I purchased this car in december 2017; however, in september of 2018 the malfunction light came on. I had the car diagnosed by autozone first which advised it was a transmission pressure fluid sensor. I then followed up with the nissan dealer, bommarito on 661 dunn rd in hazelwood, mo.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving 35 MPH, the vehicle jerked without warning. The vehicle was taken to kraft nissan (3277 mahan dr, tallahassee, fl), but was not diagnosed due to the diagnostic fee.

I was driving on the freeway, as I approached the ramp, my car started moving slow. I press the accelerator to pick up speed, my car jerked a bit. As I proceed to exit the freeway it picked up speed.

My car only has 40,000 miles I bought it brand new at least they sold it new in july 2016 at serra nissan in bormingham al. And now 2 years as of 2 mths ago 40,000 miles later . The repair shop here in chattanooga, tn informwd me that they had to take the whole transmission out and rebuild it, what?

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 nissan altima. While driving 40 MPH, the speed decreased to less than 20 MPH and the transmission hesitated. In addition, the RPM gauge raced each time the failure occurred.

I was driving on the highway at about 80 MPH when my RPM started to go up and down in a way that I'd never seen. Immediately following that, my check engine light came on. I took my car to advance auto parts to see what was wrong and it read, 'p0841 transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch a circuit range/performance'.

Car was unable to switch gears when in stop and go traffice conditions.jerky acceleration during this situation.engine reeves up when giving gas.I had to turn the car off in order to get out of this mode.took it to the dealer and the dealer got code p0776.

While driving on highway the car slowed to approx. 40 MPH, while RPM's remained high. This is the third time it happened.

Purchased 4/2017 brand new. July 1st, notice the airbag sensor light is on on the instrument panel, take it in; they replace a sensor, didn't fix, replace another sensor, light goes off. In august, the vehicle again has the light on, take it back to dealer; they replace the first sensor (the one that wan't bad) and the light goes off.

I was driving on florida turnpike south and out of no where I hear a big boom noise. My car started over heating and I noticed my engine light has come onto the dashboard. Once I pulled over on side of turnpike, I notice sticking out of my front bumper a big piece of metal.

The front passenger air bag off light continues to come on with passengers in the seat at various speeds. Nissan has attempted to correct this issue at least four times without success. There is also an noticeable vibration in or near the drive train when ever engine is operating at or near 1750 RPM that also has not been eliminated.

My 2016 Nissan Altima has roughly 80k miles, all the sudden my transmission began to fall a part, Nissan is fully aware of this issue, but they don't want to take responsibility. There are so many Nissan owners with the same issue

If I'm in city traffic with lots of traffic and a red light for a while or in a drive thru, my car takes longer to accelerate after coming to a complete stop. I'll push the gas pedal in to go and it takes a few seconds to get moving up to normal acceleration speed.

Transmission problem.

For the past two years I have been experiencing dim headlights. I have had them change twice and still cannot see 5 feet ahead of me. I was unaware that this could be a common problem with this model.

Transmission seems to get stuck and not want to move at times. Airbag light on dash and some times shows pass air bag light off when there is a passenger in the seat.

Transmission is not right

Stopped propelling the car. Might be a transmission problem.

Engine RPM is uncontrollable engine light came on at 87781 miles no problems before this failure because I was not aware of this manufacturer failure I have exceeded my extended warranty by 3k miles and now I'm in a bad position to deal with this,I still owe on this car.this is very shameful for letting nissan get away with this defect,now we the consumers have to pay.

Locks are unlocking themselves driving and when parked

Transmission failed!

P059f and p0159f codes are firing. I could not locate a TSB, but lots of online chatter about the same issue

When vehicle is idle or at light or stop sign, while using cell phone USB cord and a/c on, the vehicle has a delayed response time when trying to accelerate and takes a few seconds to register that I'm pressing the accelerator before moving.

Transmission is slipping. Problem started on or around 6/3/2020 while driving in town. Car has about 80,xxx miles on it.

If I stay idle to long and go to tap the gas the car doesn't move it slowly glides then it takes off really fast! I noticed when I'm doing short stops or idling or sitting on a hill it does this! It almost seems like it's air in the transmission the way it doesn't go when you tap the gas!

Vehicle hesitates to move forward when stepping on gas. Seems like it slips at highway speed

While driving, the car just accelerates all on its own. When I stop at a stop sign or red light. I try to drive off and the car does not go.

Car has the same judder code in the transmission but have been told the VIN number was not specified as affected. Car judders in slow and stop and go traffic and in parking lots. This seems to have become a problem with the software package for these transmissions and has affected more cars than the VIN numbers that the recall is out for.

On multiple occasions, after coming to a complete stop vehicle would not accelerate after pushing the accelerator. In addition to this now the transmission will not up shift for road speed. Vehicle, when placed in park or neutral, will rev up when accelerator is pushed but not while transmission is engaged in drive.

Vehicle was at an intersection, I stepped on the accelerator pedal and the vehicle had minimal power. I it moved very little, then finally it moved normally. I was scared oncoming traffic would hit me because the vehicle had no acceleration.

No recall by manufacturer, warranty not being honored because manufacturer did not issue recall. Car is currently undrivable because transmission is gone.

Transmission problem for miles over 60,000. When at stop light and try to accelerate when the light changes, car does not move when accelerator is pressed. While driving, car does not switch gears and car slows down.

The car has a problem shifting RPM runs high and when I push gas pedal down to the ground it does not have speed and rolled back going uphill from a stop due to this problem. Obdii code p0776

At 61,000 miles (just 1000 miles after the warranty expired), the CVT transmission failed while vehicle was in motion. It started as a knocking that occurred while shifting gears. The next day, the engine violently fluctuated between gears while going ~60 MPH on the highway.

After the car idles for a period of time, car hesitates to go. After pressing on the gas pedal for a few seconds car takes off very fast. Some times the car will rev high before it shifts.

Occasion delayed engagement when taking off and sluggishness at acceleration. Car slowly takes off at high rpms and makes sounds as if in wrong gear. After turning off car, after about 10-20 mins car shifts properly.

We just purchased the car from robert's toyota columbia tn, on 11/16/2018. The car just coasted into the driveway and just stopped died, dropped my brother off and the started the car and went arround the corner and it did the same thing only took us a few min.

I got my car february of 2018. In november 2018 I am being told I need a whole new transmission. I have a 2016 nissan altima.

On a main road, my car jump/ jerks going a lil past 40mph however my RPM goes up to 3/4..while in idle at stop light, to go after green, pressing gas, car does not move..then once it moves( 3-5 secs later after pressing gas) RPM jumps to 3/4, but only going 20mph..then once in gear, it's like I'm going fast but really I'm not

My 2016 transmission has an internal error. The car is 2 years old the transmission is defective. I have 90000 highway miles and it's out of warranty

For the second time while in the middle of driving, this time on the freeway, the car would not accelerate when the gas pedal was pressed. I pressed it all the way down and the RPM would not go up and the car was slowing down. It happened before on a local street with the same scenario.

My transmission is constantly kicking back at me, this morning 2017-09-27 my transmission completely gave out. Reving is to 5-6 RPM not being able to exceed 10 MPH. The drivers side curtain airbag keeps tripping my airbags to deactivate.
