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.

air conditioner blows cool for a while them warmer

I have paid the dealership more than once to repair my air conditioner and the problem continues. The summer is over but before next summer, I will have to spend more money in order to have cold air for the spring/summer of 2017. NISSAN should recall vehicles for this problem as it is wide-spread and very frequent. My vehicle has less than 100,000 miles and the problems never stop.
