Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	FRONTIER
Model Year	2008
File date	28/07/17
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Engine coolant has leaked from the radiator into the transmission fluid cooling section of the radiator, then into the transmission resulting in over $5200 in a transmission rebuild. Having checked various web sites i notice that this has been a recurring problem with this model. My question is: if nissan has known about this problem, why has a recall not been issued? Also, why should owners be responsible for footing the bill for rebuilding the transmission? Due to the nature of this, i will be contacting the federal transportation agency that provides oversight of vehicle safety and recalls. It is unsatisfactory that nissan does not own up to it's responsibilities!
