| Description of the problem | Radiator failed causing leak of radiator fluid into transmission causing vehicle to be towed to auto shop. Vehicle was in motion on highway and then would all of the sudden no longer accelerate. Mechanics, (got 3 estimates) all said same thing; that this was a problem with these pathfinders. My cost is about 6,500. I had just bought this vehicle for 8,500 about 3 weeks prior. |
