Description of the problem	I was driving from work to pick up my kids from school and felt my vehicle begin to jerk, my service engine light came on so i pulled into a gas staion near by. When i got out of my vehicle i saw a huge puddle of radiator fluid gushing out. I called my local nissan dealership and they told me to bring it in but keep my eye on the h & c gauge and make sure it doesn't reach up to h by any means. So i go and pull out of the gas station and go about 2 blocks away and immediately the gauge was rising to h quickly, so i pull over and shut the truck off and called a tow-truck to have it towed to the dealership. After nissan looked at my truck i'm to replace both radiator and transmission! I looked up my problems with my truck and found out that like i, many of other american people are having or had the same problem and nissan doesn't want to acknowledge that this is a serious problem for any nissan owner and issue a full recall on these specific problems. Instead i'm stuck paying a $3,000 co-pay of a warranty that doesn't help me out at all.... I can't come up with that type of money spontaneously. My vehicle is my lifeline and now i'm without that due to on-going issue with nissan pathfinder trucks. Something has got to give seriously if i would've known that this was eventually going to happen (and it does happen) i would've never bought this truck plain & simple... I advise the consumers to stay away from nissan unless they don't mind all the repairs and driving hasards nissan has to offer.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
