![]() Other Nissan CVT lawsuits claim the automaker knew about the transmissions for years, and this lawsuit is no different. The plaintiffs claim dealerships often say the transmissions just need "broken in," so no repairs to the CVT's are required. The lawsuit says Nissan dealers routinely say there is nothing wrong with the CVTs after diagnostic tests are performed. No amount of maintenance will help with the transmission problems, according to the plaintiffs, and depending on Nissan's warranties is allegedly a mistake. At other times, the vehicles felt like they dropped down a gear while driving. Nissan allegedly refused to help pay for the repairs and said there weren't any problems with the transmission.Īccording to the lawsuit, the plaintiffs started having CVT problems when the vehicles had less than 20,000 miles on them, including incidents of engines revving, shuddering and delays in shifting. However, the plaintiff says the replacement transmission is no better than the original CVT. Pritchett says the problem got so bad, she couldn't drive the car and eventually had to pay about $4,500 to replace the CVT. Plaintiff Pamela Pritchett says she purchased a 2013 Nissan Sentra that experienced the same transmission problems as U Can Rent. Plaintiff U Can Rent LLC says it purchased nine 2013 Sentras, one 2013 Nissan Juke and four 2014 Nissan Jukes.
