Ship Carrying New Nissans on Fire in Pacific

The one thing we hate is the transmission. On that note alone, I checked with a high school buddy of mine who is a A mechanic @ a Nissan dealer for many years now. He told me the rubber band transmission is horrible. They often give up the ghost very early. And that is what we have experienced ourselves.
I just changed a cvt transmission on a '15 Rogue last week, was making a noise like a ring a pinion not set up right. Only had about 65K miles on it. Good thing the customer had a warranty on it because it was quite spendy.
