| Description of the problem | My truck first started shuddering on acceleration in 2011 at 68,000 miles. I checked it out and found foamy coolant and strawberry like milk shake in my transmission. Since it was out of warranty i tried to save it by changing the fluid and doing the bypass which worked for a while. Soon after i received a notice that they extended the warranty on this issue (making it within warranty). I then took it to the nissan dealer to have them check it out, they said they checked the pressure on the radiator and said everything was fine. Now 2 years later at 100,000 miles my truck can't shift into overdrive. This is very upsetting and i feel you guys should be responsible for fixing this problem. All these vehicles should be recalled!*jb |
