| Description of the problem | Leaking transfer case. On march 15, 2016, at 72,549 miles, the cvt transmission on my 2010 nissan murano le failed as i was pulling out of a lowe's parking lot. Nissan had extended their warranty to 10 years or 120,000 miles so they replaced the cvt transmission free of charge and returned the vehicle to me on march 22, 2016. On march 29, 2016 i noticed a brown oily fluid leaking on my garage floor. I took it back to the same nissan dealerership, and they said the cvt transmission was fine but now i had a leaking transfer case. Unfortunately, the transfer case was not covered under their extended warranty for the transmission and i paid over $1300 out of pocket to repair it. |
