Description of the problem	I have a 2006 nissan frontier and for the last 9 or 10 months it becomes "herky-jerky" at various speeds. I only drive this vehicle in the winter so yesterday i took it in to the dealership and today they informed me the coolant had leaked into the transmission. The dealership informed me the cost for the repair is $6500. I asked them if this was something normal and they said it was unusual. I did some checking on the internet and found out there was a settlement agreement regarding this defect. Other sites directed me to make a complaint with you because this appears to be a widespread problem and due to the fact the settlement agreement was essentially worthless. Given this i am filing this complaint with you in hopes this will turn into a recall. Also, made a claim today with nissan and expecting a case worker to call back tomorrow. If they do not agree to pay for the cost of the damage i will take them to small claims. Of note, i have only sued one entity before in my life (49yo) and it was nissan back in 1997 and i won. It was a defect in the wiring of my previous frontier. I can say nissan likes to play hard ball and not settle or admit to any of their faults. I gave them more than sufficient evidence and was very patient in this prior claim, but they kept denying. I learned my lesson that time and this time i will not be so patient and will inform them i will taken more expeditiously this time. *js
