Description of the problem	Hasn't happened yet, but from all the complaints from 2005-2010 nissan pathfinder, xterra and frontier owners concerning major transmission failures while driving due to cross contamination from a failed transmission fluid line running through the radiator, it's only a matter of time. This defect has been known by nissan for years and as a band-aid solution offered extended warranty coverage for these specific components to 8 years/80,000 miles, knowing full well most problems have a record of occurring just after 100,000 miles. Class action law suits against nissan for this defect are now pending in the state of new york. This defect and nissan's lack of concern for preventative action placed this in the 2nd worst problem on carcomplaints. Com top vehicle problem trends of 2012 list. As more and more of these model years approach 100,000 miles, more and more catastrophic failures with potential for injury and loss of life will occur. Repair after the failure is quite expensive; enough to warrant scrapping the vehicle for those that can't afford the repair bill. Time to hold nissan accountable for the problem they have created and allowed the public to bear responsibility for. A recall of all affected models to install an improved automatic transmission line in the oil cooler or rerouting the line to a different add-on oil cooler is needed.
