On 08/16/2016 I purchased a motor vehicle from star Nissan located at 5757 w. touhy ave., niles, il 60714 (2013 Nissan Pathfinder SUV VIN). On October of 2016 I was driving in the express way going 60mph and my vehicle suddenly stopped accelerating and came to a complete stop while I had other vehicle passing me by at 60+ mph. I had to pull to the side to avoid getting hit in the rear. The vehicle finally took off but not without jerking and rattling noises. I immediately came off the express way. I took the vehicle to star Nissan and they admitted my car on 10/22/2016. I was contacted by Nissan and was told that they replicated the problem and the cvt would need to be changed and everything should be fine. The changes were made and on 10/28/2016 I received the vehicle back. My vehicle has been back to the dealer on 11/12/2016, 11/16/2016, 04/22/2017, 07/12/2017 7/28/2017 with the same symptoms and the problem has never been rectified. On 07/01/2017 my vehicle was driven by a Nissan service technician for 237 miles in order to replicate the problem again. They were successful but now stated that the problem was a relay light. They gave me the vehicle back on 07/06/2017. My vehicle was admitted again on 07/25/2017 with the same problems. The technician had to drive my vehicle 344 miles to replicate the symptoms once again. However my vehicle was admitted until 08/17/2017. The Nissan Consumer Affairs office sent out an engineer who made recommendations. The recommendation was to remove brake light relay and replace brake switch. I was given the vehicle back and the problems has persist. On 11/13/2017 my car jerked and came to a stop in the middle of a busy intersection this has been a nightmare and I have almost been a part of an accident on several occasion due to this problem. I am now car-less because this vehicle is not safe to drive.

Seal on transmission leak and can not get out of park

Gear shift assembly recall. The gear shift stick got stuck in parking, in order to get the car out of park I need to use the emergency park release button which creates a safety risk because when you use the emergency release button the break needs not be applied which may cause a crash, injury or death. In Nissan service shop it was determined that the entire gear shift assembly needs to be replaced, cost - $850. Switching gears safely is an essential vehicle function and the gears shift stick is not a wearable part for which malfunction I should pay.

Intermit - vehicle fails to accelerate after depressing gas pedal. After releasing the gas pedal - intermit operation still present. This issue occurred when the vehicle was in motion on local streets, parking lots and highways. Current speed of vehicle does not appear to be factor, only when trying to accelerate.

My 2013 Nissan Pathfinder has experienced 8 incidents of no acceleration, sometimes at critical moments, like merging from one highway to another in heavy traffic. One incident involved a semi-truck nearly rear-ending me on a flyover ramp while my Pathfinder was stuck at 40 mph. It was like a funeral procession stuck behind me until I was able to get on a shoulder of the highway, after the flyover ramp. All 8 incidents have happened after the car was serviced on 2/14/17 by the Nissan dealership for recall PC500 (dealing with the transmission). We had no problems with our Pathfinder before the warranty/recall work was done. The car tends to get stuck in lower speeds, between about 15-40 mph. It has done this twice from a dead stop at a red light. When it finally did accelerate from the red light, it shot off like a rocket and caused us to go over a median and off the road. It does it on local streets and also on highways. The severity of the situation seems greater when it happens on the highway, however, it could be deadly on local roads as well. I am scared to turn left without an arrow for fear of it not accelerating. I have to drive differently, allowing tons of space/time to pull out of parking lots, in case it doesn't accelerate. I have all of my service records and have done everything to service the car that it requires.

- Prairie Village, KS, USA

The car began jumping and jerking as it accelerated on both the interstate and city streets. I was certainly not in control. The tachometer kept accelerating and decelerating on its own. After I accelerated to above 45-50, it stopped jerking and became smooth again. Upon stopping at a stop light or sign, the vehicle was jerky and had trouble engaging and shifting. It was extremely dangerous.

Vehicle does not respond when the gas pedal is depressed, resulting in no acceleration. This has been an ongoing problem and happens at random, and at varying speeds: Including acceleration from a complete stop, acceleration at highway speeds, and acceleration at city speeds. When this happens, rpms do not rise while the gas pedal is depressed and the vehicle becomes totally unresponsive. This problem began occurring after the dealer replaced the cvt and torque convertor ' both deemed bad by the dealer. Vehicle has been back to the dealer on several occasions to address this concern, but the dealership cannot replicate the problem, and there are no codes appearing during diagnostic testing. The problem is ongoing and there has been no resolution. Nissan corporate has not formally acknowledged this to be a systemic problem, but is 'aware of some concerns'.

Nissan Pathfinder 2013 revs engine and jerks vehicle while firmly pressing brake (at a stop light). At first, I thought it was just the wind, but it kept happening for weeks. Then I noticed the rpms jump when it happened. Furthermore, the vehicle would slowly roll forward if stopped on a hill, requiring pressing the brake pedal all of the way to the floor. Just yesterday, it revved and jerked about a dozen times. The vehicle has the latest recalls done as of April/may when I took in in for service (rosen Nissan) and they verified the brake system was ok. Vehicle should not be revving and trying to turn tires while it is stopped.

While driving the RPM and speed of the vehicle will not go past 1500 thus causing very slow acceleration. Especially when trying to turn into any street where you need to accelerate faster. Trying to de press and re press the gads pedal does nothing. Our Nissan dealership has said the transmission valve body assembly is to blame.

Nissan-usa has known about a cvt transmission issue with this vehichle. We purchased it used in February 2016. Leckner had the vehicle in stock when the announcement was made and did nothing to repair the issue. They sold us the vehicle without disclosing the information. Nissan now does not want to make any repairs, though the car id deemed dangerous as the engine makes sudden jerking and shuddering when accelerations. There have been at least two class action lawsuits where Nissan has agreed to fix the issue or change a new engine. When calling and dealing with leckner and Nissan they keep saying the issue is closed and won't do anything.

I take my car to steven creek Nissan dealer located in santa clara California to fix the brake switch recall ntb16-062 on 10/1/2016. I started have having problem with my gear shift lock issue on 10/18/2016. I cannot shift my gear unless I use a screw drive. I cannot move my gear from park position unless I use a screw driver. I took my car to the dealer on 10/29 and they found that brake lamp stop switch (which they inspected on 10/1) is out of spec and adjusted back into spec and release my car. For that adjustment they charge me $160 for it which I think is unfair because they are the one who touch it on 10/1. before they touch it I never have this problem. On 10/30/2016 the problem reappeared I still cannot shift the gear without a screw driver. Car transmission is in shift lock.

Takata recall-transmission completely failed 1500 miles after warranty expired-started jerking at low speeds and finally just wouldnt move after it was parked.

- Kevil, KY, USA

Car was purchased new in the second quarter of 2013. In late 2014 with less than $40K, car began "shuddering". mostly at low speeds and when accelerating. Dealer could not find an issue. Driving back from vacation in late 2014, on the interstate, the car lost power and we limped off the exit after which the car was undriveable. Nissan indicated it was an issue with the cvt and the transmission was replaced under warranty. Looking back at the situation on the highway, given the loss of power, this could have been a lethal situation. Fast forward to Oct 2016 and at 88K, the same issue is re-occurring and the dealer indicated today, transmission will (again) need to be replaced.
