Description of the problem	My truck would go in to gear but would not drive. I had it diagnosed by a transmission shop and they said that the radiator was leaking water and coolant in to my transmission and it would need to be replaced. I then had my vehicle towed to the nissan dealer where the technician said that this is caused by a faulty hose on radiator and it was happening to a lot of frontiers and xterras. When my husband questioned the tech on this being a recall he stated that it should be, but is not because it does not cause a safety issue. He told us we would need a new radiator, hoses, and transmission. The truck breaking down is a safety issue! We then had our truck towed to our normal mechanic and he is repairing it now.
