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 absolutely loved my ca until it started randomly having engine problems...an After almost A month of having no car because it was in the shop the mechanic found out it was the timing change . And not only that it also ruined my engine front gasket which ran me almost 1000 more dollars ...this is so aggravating
Update from May 23, 2020: I have a picture of my claim
really sucks that nissan spends more to pay lawyers & lose lawsuits than it would cost to admit & fix the problem. I am currently not in a state that has a class action against nissan & that really sucks because nissan claims no responsibility.
