This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Consumer complained there was slipping of the transmission and the vehicle would not shift. Transmission was replaced. The torque convertor was replaced also. The gear shift release button is not operable.
Consumer was driving at approximately 70-75 mph and passing a truck when vehicle ran over a puddle of water and it splashed onto motor, causing vehicle to shift into low and wheels locked up. Consumer ran off road, but was able to drive home in low gear for 30 miles. Dealer could not determine cause. Consumer states the next day, vehicle shifted okay.
The first problem was the transmission which by the dealership that serviced my car said is unsual. Then on about a month later this part known as a distributor component failed. I have spent over $2500 on repair cost in the last two months. I am sure something this is not normal.
Could not shift into reverse. Vehicle could only move in a forward direction. Vehicle could not engage overdrive. Engine revved at 4000+ at 30mph. Engine light came on. Vehicle was towed to courtsey Nissan of plano tx. Immediately. Service manager indicated that no recalls for this problem were ever issued. Solenoid R, carrier assembly and gasket were replaced. Service mgr. And technician confirmed this was a failure of the transmission system with no known cause. Basically, they could not or would not explain why this happened.
Vehicle was mistakenly put into neutral instead of park position, allowing vehicle to roll into a pole at approximately 2-3 mph upon impact dual airbags deployed, causing severe injuries to the driver. Airbags deployed without warning and less than 3 mph.
