2005 nissan maxima purchased new in 2004. the car keeps making sudden violent jerking movements while driving creating a potential hazard for a car accident. when this happens i have to pull over and restart the car. i can not drive the car on major highways and can not go more that 35mph. the car feels like it is slipping when attempting to drive after being at a stop. there is a long hesitation before the car begins to drive after being put in gear to drive. it also jerks forward suddenly when it does decide to move. sometimes the car won't move when attempting to accelerate. at stop lights i have to shift gears at times to get it to move. another incident included the car not stopping. i had to move it into first gear to get it to stop. the car jerks backwards when reversing. when these problems started the car was taken to nissan because we suspected a transmission problem. they told us it was not the transmission but instead motor mounts,rods, and bolts. i spent almost $3,000 to repair it and the problem still continued. now, i am being told that it is the transmission and given an estimate of $3100. nissan has diagnosed this problem. we discovered that there are thousands of other consumers with the same complaint for the 2004-2005 maxima. this indicates that this is a common problem that nissan is actually aware of. the battery has also had to be replaced 3times. the power doors no longer work neither does the sun roof. i have to drive to get to work and to get the kids to school. i do not like to drive with my kids in the car for fear that the car will not stop again or that there will be a collision because of the jerky movements and the the cars hesitation. nissan has been contacted. no resolution has been offered at this time. car is still at the dealership. | |||
