CVT belt failure

CVT belt / transmission

60 months

Source-linkedVerify source — Reddit post

2020 Nissan Kicks about five years old bucked and lost the transmission; diagnosis was a failed CVT belt rather than a range sensor. Owner reports never missing oil changes or maintenance milestones, with the transmission shot at about 92,000 miles.
