What owners wrote

Was driving car , took a left hand turn and car died in middle of intersection , had enough momentum to carry car through intersection so there was no accident. The car stared right back up seemed fine. The A/C was on but that should not have an effect on it. The car did the same thing 3 days before this and I was not turning , I was stopping behind a car that was turning. Each time this has happened the A/C was on and it was within 5 miles of first starting the car.

I got my oil change done at 67,000 miles and since then my car jerks and feels weird when I drive it. I'm worried that it may stall on me when driving on the highway or city and that's dangerous for my kids and others on the road. Please investigate the transmission as it's made by nissan and nissan has a lot of problems with their cvts.
