| Description of the problem | As i was driving and leaving the parking lot on to a busy intersection my car would not move as i stepped on the gas. Thankfully the cars behind me weren't going to fast so i was able to make it home finally at a speed of 20 mph. The car will not go into gear. We recently took our car into aamco and they told us it the engine coolant had been leaking into the transmission and there is damage to the transmission. I researched the problem and realized what happened to so many people has happened to me. Nissan wants me to take the car to their dealership and pay $125. 00 for an estimate. I explained aamco did the estimate for free but nissan doesn't want to hear about that. Now the car is sitting in my garage since july. $3500. 00 for repairs is almost impossible at this time. Nissan needs to take care of this problem. I was never notified about any problems with this car. But i did receive my mail when they knew i was due for an oil change. My car is a 2005 and i have 100,055 miles. Payments were made on time always for this car and i paid it in off in full in 2010. The least nissan can do is take care of this problem. |
