Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On some minor slopes, but not all, the cvt transmission-equipped 2007 altima will roll backwards several feet while in "drive" posing a hazard to objects and persons behind the vehicle. this is consistently reproducible in our home driveway but not on steeper slopes such as a parking garage. the surprising condition caused my wife to panic and almost lose control, nearly striking another vehicle. the dealership has been very responsive. however, as of this posting, nissan north america acknowledges but refuses to fix the issue. *jb |
