I also have an 05 Maxima and my transmission started to act up around 65000. It's doing the same as everyone else's, jerking and shifting hard in 2nd and 3rd gear. I am really upset because I bought this car brand new so that I would not have this problem so soon. I love the car, but I can't stand the transmission. They really need to recall this car for the transmission because I know that they are aware of this problem. It's not fair to us, we thought that we were buying a nice car for the price but, over all it's not!
