An automatic transmission might be slow shifting from first to second because of low transmission fluid. You might also have damaged the gears in the transmission at the area between first and second.
A bad transmission gear can cause your 1999 Nissan frontier to shift hard. Low transmission fluid can also cause the transmission to shift hard.
the first automatic transmission was invented by Louis-Rene Panhard and Emile Levassor in 1894
A.K.A Hydramatic, A.K.A PowerGlide. Also known as an Automatic Transmission. Hope This Helps.

Oldsmobile came out with a fully automatic transmission in the 1940 model year.
The first fully automatic transmission was the Hydro-matic, offered in the 1940 Oldsmobile. There were semi-automatics (GM's Automatic Safety Transmission and Chrysler's Fluid Drive) available in 1937.
Is it an automatic? If so, you may need to change the transmission filter and fluid.

A car with an automatic transmission shifts itself from 1st to 2nd to 3rd when you accelerate. You don't need to shift it...that's why they call it automatic.
There are several things that can cause your automatic transmission not to go into first gear. The most common cause is low transmission fluid.
