Car shakes when accelerating

Hi Scotty, I have a 2015 Nissan Altima with 112,000 miles on it. The engine module and transmission module were reprogrammed when the car had less than $45,000 miles on it. My concern is that the vehicle shutters when I accelerate somewhere between 10 and 25 mph. It feels like the car is shaking or staggering slightly and I'm concerned that the CVT is going out. This has been going on for about 2 years. I am the second owner of this vehicle and the transmission fluid was changed at 94,000 miles. Nissan says their extended warranty due to the CVT lawsuit expired at 84,000 miles. Any thoughts or suggestions on what I should do? Thank you.

Sounds like the CVT is on its way out. It's not worth the cost of installing another. If not already done you could try changing the fluid again to see if that helps it limp along a bit longer. If it has a filter change that as well. Realistically though it's time to be looking for a replacement vehicle.
