Many more Nissan CVT's on the rd. You might hear of a few more issues because of that alone.
A few more, yes. But I've yet to find a single documented example of a Subaru CVT failure which wasn't due to someone filling it with the wrong transmission fluid. Nissan had to increase the warranty to ten years because so many of theirs
were failing.
The warranty was increased because consumers were cautious of this new transmission that felt weird, and didn't shift.
Nissan sold 1,386,895 vehicles for 2014 in the US.
