Description of the problem	I took my frontier truck in for a 120000 mile schedule maintenance check and oil change. The deal told me that the radiator coolant and transmission fluid had mixed together due to a problem with the radiator. I was told that they would flush the radiator and transmission and try to clean out most of the mixed fluid. I was informed that i need to replace the radiator and transmission might have to be also replaced. The cost for the replacement would be around $8400. I began to do some research into the problem and found out that nissan know that there was a problem with the radiator and that the fluid could leak into the transmission and damage the transmission. I saw that nissan would extend the warrant to cover the cost if you had less that 8 years and 80000 miles. This warrant would now help me, due tot the fact i have almost 119000 miles on my truck. I think if nissan knew about this problem they would have a recall on all frontiers, pathfinders and xterras from 2005-2010 and pay for them to be fixed . It will cost me over $6000 to have a new transmission put into my frontier truck. My truck is a 2005 frontier le. I am having the radiator assy replaced ($991. 84) oil cooler assy replaced ($498. 49) transmission and cooling system flushed ($421. 52). The 120000 mile service a/t will cost me $400. I am going to search around to see how much a new transmission for my truck would cost. The dealer said the cost for replacing my transmission would be $6155. 14. They would sell me the transmission for their cost which would save me $925. I think that nissan should a lease help pay for half or 2/3 of the cost for me to get my truck fixed.
