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.
I own a 1998 Nissan Maxima SE the transmission and the torque converter must have been defective from the manufacturer because when I purchased the car the reviews on the car had stated that the powertrain shifting was hard and rough.since I had the car it has been doing just that. It shifts so hard sometimes from a stop that I feel that its not going to go into gear.its not driven hard at all, so could someone look into this matter. My check engine light is on now from my torque converter circuit being intermittened.I would greatly appreciate it very much, thanks.
