Description of the problem	While in drive, vehicle does not want to shift into higher gear and took excessively long to gain speed. When this vehicle did eventually shift gears, it shifted extremely hard as if something was damaged . After diagnosed by mechanic, i was told that the radiator had leaked water and antifreeze into the transmission and both radiator and transmission needed to be replaced. I just purchased this truck two months prior. According to the mechanic, this is a problem nissan has had and known about for several years and has not fixed or made known. I am told this will be an expensive fix, one that i can not afford anytime soon. This is a safety hazard because this vehicle could not speed up and i almost got rear ended several times. Please initiate a formal investigation of this vehicle and the above mentioned problem. This is clearly a manufacturer defect and should be corrected by nissan.
