Description of the problem	I drove the frontier to work that morning, then in the afternoon i began my 62 mile commute home. I came to a stop at a traffic light and then when i began to drive again the engine would rev high and accelerate slowly. I made it to a service station where the code p1754 was read on the onboard computer. I was told by the service station that it needed to be looked at, since he didn't see any mechanical issues. The code was cleared and i was able to drive it home. The next morning thinking the problem may have been a glitch in the computer i attempted to drive it down the road, approximately 2 miles into the drive a violent jerk of the truck and i could not accelerate, it was as though the vehicle was in neutral. I made it home and had the vehicle towed to the dealer i bought it from in 2007. They informed me that the transmission cooler had cracked and cross contaminated the radiator and transmission fluids and it would be a 6300. 00 dollar repair. I contacted nissan after reading online about multiple issues with this and they said that they had sent a letter out in december notifying owners of the issue. The letter stated that the warranty had been extended to 80,000 miles. Due to the fact that neither the dealer nor nissan had taken the time to update the vehicles info showing my ownership, i never received a letter and am beyond the 80,000 miles as are many of the other owners experiencing this issue. Nissan admits that the transmission cooler is suffering catastrophic failure in the transmission and radiators, but only on the phone. When you let them know that the transmission fails while on the highway in the middle of traffic, they only offer what seems to be the typical "i am sorry." this problem needs to be corrected and not at the owners expense, since it is a faulty transmission cooler that was used that caused all of the damage.
