Nissan warrants the CVT up to 120k anyway, so popping them at 55k is a minor inconvenience as they give you something to drive while they swap it anyway.
This was my point JungleZ. Reliability is based on averages. Not an isolated or even minority of cases. Your post lacked supporting data and carried a negative connotation as most of your posts do. People will swear by Toyotas reliability. Think they never have issues? How about the Prius? Oh, did we forget about the brake failure issues they had where people were plowing into buildings cuz they couldn't stop? Obviously didn't stop a gazillion people from buying them.
