Transmission failure. We had been telling the Elk Grove Nissan dealer we were getting surging while still under dealer warranty for 15,000 miles!! but they stalled ( we are not happy with them!!). We had fortunately purchased a 100,000. drive trail extended warranty. My wife broke down in the mountains of Oregon! The insurance company fought with the dealer in Oregon but the new dealer persisted and we paid for fluids only...not cheap. Very fast repair! Thank you Lithia Nissan of Medford. The repair has held for several thousand miles since....we travel back and forth to Oregon every other week. PS buy AAA Premium Towing package super!! Long story but they hauled our car for hundreds of miles no charge!
