When I drive the Altima, stop at light, move my feet from the brake and press the gas, there is jerky noise coming from the transmission or drivetrain. I took the car to a mechanic. He told me first the the fuel pump is bad. At 36,600 miles, I paid $575 parts and labor.

Then the noise returned. I went to Nissan Dealer but they were not aware of any issue like that-they couldn't help me.

My mechanic researched the problem. He told me the 1st option was to order special grease from Nissan is called Molykote M77-Part Number # 44003-7S000 for $129. He changed both axles for me. I spent $550 for both CV Axle parts and labor and $575 for the fuel pump.

This so bad for Nissan. Someone is going to get killed in one of these vehicles because of this design flaw. Any one experiencing this problem needs to start making some noise.

There is a design flaw involving the 2.5 Altimas with the CVT trans. Nissan is fully aware of the problem but continues to play dumb and insult their customers intelligence by giving them stupid explanations like the wrong grade of gas is being used or it's the wrong engine oil or the trans was overfilled at the factory. They hope that you will just give up and go away as the problem does not exist in every 2.5 Altima. There are literally thousands of consumers complaining of the same problem and nothing is being done. There needs to be a class action lawsuit initiated as Nissan continues to market and sell a product with a known design flaw. If it has not already happened, someone is going to get killed in one of these vehicles because of this design flaw. Any one experiencing this problem needs to start making some noise. Contact the National Transportation Safety Association and report your concerns.
