Description of the problem	I was coming home from work on main road at rush hour when i heard a loud clunk followed by hesitation and lights on my instrument panel going on. I was having trouble going even 20 mph and motorists behind me felt i was going unreasonably slow, thinking i was doing this on purpose and even trying to pass me. I limped along to the next street where i could get off safely and called for help. Brought the car to closest dealer the following day and was diagnosed with transmission failure due to coolant contamination. My car which was finally paid off now faced certain doom. Nissan has failed to fix any of this so now the car must sit in my driveway until you issue a recall. Nissan knew of this issue long ago and isn't taking measures to warn any of their customers about this problem. These radiators need to be changed in all affected vehicles and those which suffered catastrophic damage put back on the road at their expense. How many more drivers need to go through this painful and potentially life threatening failure?
