Component	POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Coolant leaking into transmission. On multiple occasions my family of 4 and i start from a stop and our 2005 nissan pathfinder will begin to move into the intersection and the transmission will disengage or slip due to contamination while other vehicles are heading for us. I have been trying to get nissan of middletown ny to replace it since i put my children in the vehicle and feel it is a safety issue but instead they keep replacing the transmission fluid and sending me on my way. It was not until i was on a test drive with the mechanic (i got to know them being there all the time) that he told me in confidence that it was a known issue with the nissans that the transmission has a flaw and it will cost about $7,000 to replace. I feel if it is a flaw and it proves to be a safety issue it should be replaced by nissan at no cost to the consumer since families cannot afford to replace them forcing us to drive unsafe vehicles. Please help us pathfinder owners hold nissan accountable for flaw in the transmissions.
