Description of the problem	While driving down the highway at 60 mph, my 2006 nissan frontier suddenly was running very rough, it decelerated and i only had low gear enough to barely make it off the hwy and out of the way of high speed traffic. No dash/idiot lights came on identifying any problems, there was no warning at all. Truck was towed to nissan dealership who said the transmission, and radiator, and thermostat all needed to be replaced!! They charged us $5,500. This truck only had 135,000 miles, and was kept in great condition, at time of it's failure. Nissan should be ashamed of making the consumer bear the cost of nissan's faulty parts!! They are flat out lucky if no one's been injured, or killed due to this failure! Had i been on the interstate as planned the very next day, in this truck, i wonder if i'd be here today. There should be no question or hesitation that this "transmission failure" is a safety issue and needs to be a full fledged recall. And we should not have to foot the bill for nissan's screw-ups with our hard earned money. It is simply wrong.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
