You can't file a class action suit by yourself. You can try to find a lawyer and sue but failure at 118,000 miles is not going to get a lot of interest.
Good luck with that! At 118,000 miles you're out of warranty and Nissan has no obligation to you! Instead of wasting your money on lawyer's consultation fees, who aren't going to take your case anyhow, use the money to fix the transmission or on a new vehicle! Not the answer you're looking for, I'm sure. But it's the truth! Jim

Get a new car. I had my Sentras CVT transmission go at 79000 miles. Luckily, it was a certified used vehicle, so I got another one... Then immediately got rid of it and got a Honda. CVT transmissions are junk, except Honda’s and Toyota’s, as they build their own, and have made progress with them with reliability, but I’m still against CVT in general. If you’re stuck getting the car you want with CVT (as a lot are using them) get a Honda or Toyota.

Also there already was a class action lawsuit against Nissan over their CVT transmissions, and Nissan settled, extending some warrentees only. I’m afraid your car has too many miles for coverage.
