Description of the problem	While driving on interstate 25 in south denver, my pathfinder began to sputter and stall. The engine started to overheat as i pulled into a service station about two miles away. I had it towed to christian brothers auto in parker colorado. A radiator part blew, the engine overheated and was destroyed. The steam from the plastic radiator part also damaged the main computer. It was close to $10,000 for all repairs related to the radiator part failure. Approximately 8,000 miles later, my daughter and i were driving on i-70 near the vail, colorado exit, and the pathfinder started to jerk violently on the highway going 65mph. I was able to pull over to the side of the road. Scary experience for us both. This happened today, 03/24/2016. Smoke was coming from under the car. I had it towed to avon auto in avon colorado. They said the transmission is damaged, but they did not have time to look into it further. Please call or email me with further questions. 303-726-6211 or l. Fab@comcast. Net
