 Description of the problemNissan needs to formally recall several vehicles with radiator/ transmission problems. In my case while i was driving my vehicle suddenly came to a stop while i was on the road driving at a speed of 55 mph. My vehicle shut down and i tried to turn on luckily it turned on and began to run again. I pressed on the accelerator it did not run more than 20 mph. I decided to tow my vehicle to a local mechanic to have it diagnosed since i was terrified of it shutting down once again in the middle of the road. My mechanic diagnosed my vehicle and concluded that fluid from the radiator had leaked into the transmission. Nonetheless, he expressed to me that this was nothing new he had seen with these vehicles. He told me that he had fixed a couple in just this last year. According to his past clients nissan failed to do anything to correct the problem regardless of the potential hazard. I visited the dealer in which i have purchased the vehicle and explain the service man my concern. He clearly told me that my warranty was over and that the lawsuit against nissan to be reimbursed had ended in 2013. I told him that my vehicle frequently comes to their service center for maintenance and if they were aware of the failure in theses vehicles once they reach their 100,000 miles why did they fail to correct the problem before it occurred. It surprises me that nissan failed to inform any of its consumers of the problem when it was going through a lawsuit. He then proceeded to tell me that he could not help me and referred me to corporate office. I was told i would be called within two days. I received the call back from nissan simply telling me my case was reviewed and they could not do anything due to the fact that my warranty is over. Nissan is putting the lives of their consumers in danger and is hiding behind their warranty guidelines to avoid correcting their engineering errors.

    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.
