| Description of the problem | I brought our pathfinder in to our mechanic for an oil change and inspection. He said that the radiator is going bad. Specifically the coolant that is attached to the transmission. He said that we should not drive the vehicle, as it could blow the transmission. We are lucky that he did such a thorough inspection, as we had no warning signs. I googled the problem and found your website, and that this has been an ongoing problem with nissan. Our mechanic said he recently had to replace two radiators, one on a 2009 nissan pathfinder and another on a nissan (truck)... I can't remember the model and year. |
