Description of the problem	Nissan issued an extended warranty to replace faulty radiators and transmissions affected by these faulty radiators yet did not increase the warranty by the normal 12mo 12,000 mile instead they increased it to 96months and only 80,000 miles not 96,000 miles simply because most failures happen over 80,000 miles. They also claimed this was not a safety recall. When the radiator affects the transmission and the vehicle can stall during driving. How is this not a safety issue. This is from their letter informing consumers: "in vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions, a crack in the radiator assembly might occur at higher mileages leading to internal leakage of engine coolant. While the majority of vehicles will not experience this issue, nissan is extending the warranty as it applies to the radiator assembly to demonstrate our commitment to stand behind our products and our customers. Nissan is extending your vehicle's new vehicle limited warranty as it applies to the radiator assembly and its component parts from 36 months/36,000 miles to 96 months/80,000 miles, including damage, repairs, replacement, and related towing resulting from this issue."a crack in the radiator is caused from thermal schock. Which nissan knew about before installing the original radiator in my vehicle. I know this because they applied for a patent on jan 24,2006 which was published sept 2006 therefore they knowingly installed radiators that would undergo thermal shock ie crack. See the entire publication where they are filing for a patent recognizing the existing problematic radiators: vehicle cooling system,publication number us20060196634,application number us/11/337437,assignees nissan motor co ltd calsonic kansei corporation,inventors sato yousuke ishikawa takayuki iwasaki mitsuru filing date 24 jan 2006publication date 07 sep 2006.
