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.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
My wife and I purchased a 2005 Maxima sl in October of 2004. We have had the front struts replaced 5 times. This is an inconvenience for us. When we asked the dealer why this keeps happening, they stated it's only in the New York, tri-state area. The South and West coast does not encounter this problem. This is ridiculous to us. They claims that the New York city streets is the reason for the issue. We need help!!!!!!!!!
