2006 Nissan PATHFINDER Engine And Engine Cooling Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1055110
Internal NHTSA #	10577855
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	PATHFINDER
Model Year	2006
File date	08/01/13
Component	ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	My radiator failed and possibly leaked radiator fluid into my transmission, via an internal radiator cooler. This is a widely known problem with this model and year. Involving a class action lawsuit. My mechanic caught this problem early enough that my transmission wasn't completely destroyed. The resulting repair was $900 plus $200 for a transmission flush as a safeguard to possible radiator fluid that may have gotten into the transmission. I was outside of the mileage extension for warranty and since my transmission wasn't destroyed i didn't qualify for any help from the class action lawsuit. The repairs on this vehicle are staggering i currently have a fuel sending unit issue that is the subject of a recall but my vehicle is outside of the warranty extension. This is a poorly made vehicle that has cost me thousands in repairs. Nissan needs to be held accountable. Nissan will not take responsibility and keeps telling me to go to a dealer to get my vehicle repaired. So frustrating.
