Description of the problem	I just had to have the radiator replaced and the automatic transmission rebuilt at a cost of almost $3,000 in my 2008 nissan frontier se 4v 2. 5 with only 84,000 miles because of the cross contamination. According to carcomplaint. Com, the average owner is becoming aware of a problem at 94,565 miles. If nissan would have recalled the radiators immediately upon knowledge of the defect, it would have saved them from dealing with numerous transmission replacements and customer satisfaction concerns. I brought my truck to the nissan dealer and i was told by the service manager that the problem was not caused by contamination and i should get help from nissan who later on denied help for me. The next day i brought my nissan frontier to a shop expert in transmissions and their diagnosis was that the failure in my transmission was caused by an "anti-freeze contamination, code 1751". Nissan knew that they had a faulty radiator and instead of recalling the radiator, they extended the warranty knowing that the majority of the cars would surpass 80,000 miles before they started having problems with the transmission. Now looking at high cost to fix the timing chain cover seal. Nissan knows about both of these issues and is not taking responsibility and won't help.
