CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2004-2006 Nissan Maxima has widespread transmission problems. It starts with the vehicle jerking when shifting, & progresses to full-blown transmission failure.
Maxima owners report spending $3,000 to replace the transmission, typically around when the odometer hits 100,000 miles.
There's a class action lawsuit filed in late 2011, & it is still in the "discovery" stage. Apparently, these things take time ... far too much time.
I HAVE A MAXIMA. IT HAPPENED TWICE TO BOTH OF MY CARS (BOTH MAXIMA)
IF YOU PUT CHANGE ON THE TOP PART OF DASH. IT WILL SLIDE THROUGH THE CRACKS. CAUSING THE A/C UNIT TO SHORT OUT . IF THIS HAPPENS TURN THE KEY TO THE ON POSITION CHECK GAUGES AND A/C CONTROL . ARE THEY WORKING?? IF THE AWNSER IS NO, THEN REMOVE OR UNPLUG THE A/C MODULE AND THE CAR SHOULD START UP---- REPLACE THE MODULE----- IF YOU WANT A/C....SHAKE THE MODULE SEE IF YOU HEAR THE PENNY OR IF IT SMELLS BURNED.......... THANK FOR READING......
