Description of the problem	I have a 2006 nissan pathfinder with 91,450 miles. I notice a slight slip in the transmission on the way to work. I work at a auto repair shop. They took it for a test drive and found nothing. Approximately two weeks later, it really started to slip to the point i had to pull over, because it was not shifting correctly. When it was brought in to the shop again it did nothing. I called the local nissan dealer in stroudsburg pa and was told there was a "silent recall" and to check the fluid if it was a milky color, pretty much i was going to be without a car. I always took care of my car and for this to happen was a real blow. The dealership told me pretty much the repair exceeds the value of the vehicle. I did check the value of my car was approximately $6-7000 for the shape that it was in. That's a lot of money to lose on a vehicle. Also, the hazard of not shifting properly could have caused an accident, i had to pull off the side of the highway until i could get it to shift and this kept repeating it self over and over. Nissan had a class action settlement, which when i called nissan directly they said it did not include my vin number. I believe nissan knew this was a defect and only if you complained about it did you get attention from the company. I had an address change so i do not know if i received any information on this type of issue. I was the only owner of this vehicle and believed that nissan should make good for the repairs it will cost.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
