I have number of problems with my vehicle - 2014 altima sl. Several times after stop and go traffic the transmission stops switching gears (speeds). It gets stuck on a first gear equivalent in cvt transmission. The fix is to restart the vehicle, obviously this could be dangerous on the road where there are no places to stop. Another major problem is a head unit (navigation, radio, etc). It restarts by itself now and…

Since i leased my car in may2014 i forgot to turn the engine off 4 times . Twice it ran all night in my garage but fortunately the gas fumes did not enter my house while i was sleeping. I believe its because i'm not use to the keyless ignition system. At first i thought i mistakenly started the engine with the remote start capability while the key was in my pocket. I reported the problem to the car dealer and at my…

When i turn the ignition nothing happens. All i hear is a click where the car is trying to ignite. After trying several times it finally cranks up and start. I've had the battery checked and have taken it to nissan for a diagnostic test and both came back negative. Not sure what the problem but it is happening more frequent now since the first time it happened in november 2013 and again in april 2014. If the issue…

On the way to get a cup of coffee (less than one mile from my home) a car started coming into my lane. I swerved slightly to avoid a collision and my car went into the ditch and hit a telephone pole. Over $22,000 in damage. Radiator bent into an "l" shape. Side frames and engine went into the firewall, which totaled the car completely. I have spoken with nissan corp. Air bag safety engineer, dealership owner,…

When im in traffic and try to speed up the car doesn't change gears. Ive taken it to the dealer four times and they do nothing about it. It has happened two times within the last three days, which is more frequently than before. I have had this problem since i bought the car. When i stop the car completely, lets say at a red light, then press the gas it takes a few seconds for the car to even start moving.
