Had this JUST happen to me today.

Car drives/shifts fine once I'm moving, but dies when I come to a complete stop. I'm 90% sure it's the torque converter.

I bought the silver warranty plan when I bought the car new in 3-2014, sitting at 56k miles now. Never had any transmission related issues like this until today.

Anyone know if Nissan is going to cover this or am I looking at $$$.

Standard Powertrain warranty is 5/60...so should be warranted

Thank God, but no conversations with dealerships are "easy" when it's $$ going OUT for them.

Just tried the ECU reset after it sat cold for a few hours: Starts fine, no noise out of the ordinary.... going into reverse, seems normal for about 2 seconds and then BAM: stalls.

So this to me has to be TQ converter... will find out Tuesday with stealership appointment.

Does sound like the TC Solenoid is trying to go in lockup mode,,,hopefully dealership will be able to hook you up & flush the tranny fluid as well

56k miles, 12 days before I hit 5 years (I also paid for that "silver" plan when I bought new) so fingers crossed i don't get the whole: "Well...it's gonna be a MILLION $$$$"
