| Description of the problem | Purchased a used 2005 nissan pathfinder. Had the vehicle about 2 years. Driving home one day the vehicle started to loose power as the rpm's started to spike. We had to pull off the road in a very unsafe spot because the car could no longer move. There were no warning signs of the transmission failing. We had the vehicle towed. With a quick glance into the coolant tank, seems to have a mixture of coolant and transmission fluid. Repair cost are estimated from 2500 - 5,000+. Something needs to be done about this problem. |
