Description of the problem	In 2013 i received a notice of class action about a nissan vehicles related to possible radiator fluid leak into the transmission due a defect that permits cross-contamination of engine coolant and transmission fluid. It did not include vehicles before it happens. In 2013, i went to a authorized nissan dealer to check if my radiator can be affected but they told me that in that moment the radiator was working well without given me the option of replacing it to prevent damages. At the time i was under the warranty limits, less than 10 years and less than 100,000 miles. Now in february 13, 2016 my vehicle began to have problems to move , had a harsh shift , it slowed down and did not drive at times. I clearly saw a transmission problem. I called united nissan service for a diagnose . They check my vehicle and told me that my radiator leaked fluid into the transmission due the radiator defect. I couldn't understand why this class action did not include vehicles that will face this damage in a future . It did not include prevention of damages. Nissan did not released a recall for the faulty radiator. I know i am now outside the warranty limits, but at the time when i visited nissan service to prevent this no one provided my help or information that would help in prevent such damage. The price for a new transmission is 6,000 dlls. The total cost of repair all goes up 9,000 dlls. Also i received a rude customer service by the service agents of nissan service . Now i have to cover these costs by myself. My son was driven the vehicle when this happen. The good thing is that the failure occurred while he was driven on the freeway making it so dangerous. What will happen with people like us? The legal case was closed in 2012 but nissan still having vehicles suffering this this damage . This is a negligence that pass the financial burden to consumers.
