Description of the problem	My nissan was having issues so i took it to my mechanic. He informed me that nissan was having an issue with a part that wore out and leaked coolant into transmission and transmission fluid into the radiator. I called my local dealership to see if it was recalled. They informed me i was a few thousand miles over my warranty and they could do nothing. I then saw the multitude of complaints about this issue and the dealership said nissan paid for some vehicles out of warranty. That alone proves they knew about this issue. I paid for a new radiator ($600) and hoped for the best with my transmission. I am in the navy so i can't afford to replace the transmission. Now my luck has run out and i can no longer drive my vehicle. I have a 3 month old at home and need to have two cars for my wife. This is an issue nissan knows about and it is due to a faulty part they installed. It could have been fixed ahead of time and solved a lot of issues. When is there going to be a recall? People are getting stranded and nissan and the government knows. Does someone need to die for you to notice and act? It would seem that people being stranded and spending thousands of dollars because of a manufacturing defect is not enough. I need to know if i have to go try to buy another car or wait and hope my government protects us.
