Johnstown, Pennsylvania, United States

Up for auction is a 2004 Nissan Maxima that is in good shape with no rust on the exterior of the car. The inside has grey cloth with no rip or tears.. Has the Bose sound system with all power option including power sunroof. Car has 132,201 miles on it mostly highway to and from work. Tires are still good on the car along with the rotors and brakes.
 The bad the cars been sitting for a month or so because of an issue that's unresolved. The car starts fine but when putting into gear it goes in really hard. If you try to drive the vehicle the motor goes into limp mode (not to damage motor)  which means it only travels about 25 mph where ever you have the accelerator positioned. The engine light is on along with an airbag light which makes
me believe this is more electrical that transmission but just my guess.
I'm not a mechanic, just read some articles on the internet dealing with same problems. I had the camshaft sensor replaced on the left side of the motor when they went to do the right side they broke the connector that plugs into the sensor. They hard wired the plug directly and spliced a pigtail on but is only temporary to see if it changed the issue. No luck.... 
I'm not sure if this is a transmission problem or electrical like I mentioned before.. Engine light is on, but I have no idea what the code is nor do I have a code reader. It's now out of inspection because of it sitting and I already replaced the car for my wife. I was going to try to get it fixed but just don't have the time. Now I just want the car out of the driveway. This can be for someone to fix or part out but will need towed to your location. Any questions let me know......Title in hand..

Nissan recalls 3,065 Pathfinders for transmission fluid leak

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

Nissan is recalling 3,065 units of the 2013 Pathfinder equipped with the CVT, due to a potential transmission fluid leak. On crossovers built from April 18, 2012 to October 3,2012 "inadequate clamping force" on the hose connected to the internal oil cooler can cause the hose to come loose and let fluid escape. A severe loss of fluid can cause the transmission to stop working properly.
The recall is the result of a safety investigation begun last September, when it was thought a recall could involve 110,000 units of the Pathfinder and Infiniti JX35. Asked for comment about how such a large number of vehicles potentially involved could end up with just 3,065 being recalled, Nissan rep Steve Yaeger told Autoblog that Nissan initiated a service campaign for the issue last year - a service campaign notifies owners to take their vehicles to the dealer for repair of "what is generally not a safety issue" - and that there was a "production improvement" that addressed the clamping issue. The service campaign included the vehicles being recalled, but the recall is limited to just those vehicles that were built before the production-line fix.
Nissan will begin informing affected owners next month, at which time owners can take their vehicles to dealers to have the hose clamp repaired. The press release below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.

The art of racing the Nissan GT-R

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

There's no question that the Nissan GT-R is one of the very fastest cars that money can buy, and that its sophisticated all-wheel-drive system and active suspension give its drivers an absurd level of control at speed. In fact, the GT-R's technical brilliance and video-game quickness often spur armchair critics to make absurd claims that kind of amount to: "The car basically drives itself."
Having a bit of fun with those particularly salty members of the peanut gallery, YouTube producers at That Racing Channel have put together an instructional video about the finer points of GT-R driving and street racing. Scroll down below to get an idea about just how difficult Godzilla can be to keep hold of at the limit.

Fiat contemplating sub-brand to compete with Dacia, Datsun

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

You can add Fiat to the admittedly short list of automakers considering a low-cost brand to rival Dacia. The inexpensive Eastern European brand from Renault-Nissan has performed on the balance sheet like a premium model line, and the money the alliance is taking off the table is encouraging other players to deal themselves in. Pretty soon Nissan's Datsun sub-brand will join the Dacia party, going on sale in Russia, Indonesia and India and will claim even more rubles, rupiahs and rupees for the parent company. Volkswagen recently said it will make a decision this year on a budget line for the Chinese market. With the euthanasia of Lancia and plans to move the Fiat brand upmarket, company CEO Sergio Marchionne wonders aloud to Automotive News Europe whether there could be room for a new budget brand underneath Fiat.
We're told that the initiative has been in the idea box for five years and even moved to the stage of name considerations, like Innocenti, but worries about profit kept it from realization. If such a range were to be developed, Marchionne says it couldn't be built in Italy and stay within budget, and the company is "analyzing its manufacturing capacity outside of Europe to see if a low-cost brand is viable."
