Description of the problem	I was going to work a usual so i have to take the highway. Everything was pretty normal then as i was driving for about 10 minutes i felt like hesitation from the suv. I was in first lame so as i pressed the gas pedal a little further in i noticed that the car was decelerating. It was like it was losing power. It returned to normal then 5 minutes later the same thing happened only the car started jerking as well. I turned to the emergency lane to see what was wrong. I turned the engine off and popped the hood it smelled like coolant leaking and the suv didn't say that it was overheated. I tried to turn it on it didn't let me and the dashboard wasn't displaying the n,d,r... Etc. Took it to the mechanic and said the suv had internal leakage of the radiator and it messed with the transmission. He told me that this type and year of suv had faulty radiator that came like that. The only problem is that i had bought the car 8 months ago and that it came with a warranty for these type of car for less than 80,000 miles. Well i bought the car from the dealer with more than 100,000 miles . Now at this point to fix the car ranges from 3,000-6,000 dollars. Shame on nissan dealers for selling these type of cars that are potentially dangerous on the road.
