Description of the problem	I just recently purchased a 2005 nissan pathfinder. Just a couple of short weeks after owning the vehicle, i began to notice a strange vibration noise (like you are driving over a grooved surface) coming from the vehicle around 2000-2500 rpms or 45-65 mph. After doing some research online (http://townhall-talk. Edmunds. Com/direct/view/. F177b6c/8#msg8) i have found out that there are a ton of people having this same exact problem on the '05 nissan pathfinders. Apparently, there is a hose that runs from the radiator to the transmission and there is a chronic problem with antifreeze leaking from the radiator into the transmission, thus causing the transmission to begin to malfunction and then ultimately shut down. As you can see from the post on edmunds. Com, this is a chronic issue impacting all 2005 nissan pathfinder owners. I do not have the money to get the radiator/transmission replaced on this vehicle. Yet, i must have transportation to get to/fro work. This is obviously defective engineering on nissans part and they need to take ownership of this issue and address the faulty engineering here before someone's transmission shuts down at 60mph causing a crash on one of our highways/interstates.
