Description of the problem	In october of 2011, my 2006 nissan pathfinder began violently vibrating on the highway when i reached 60 mph. Sometimes it would stop when i let up off the gas. Other times it would continue to shake. After repeated visits to the mechanics and new tires, rotations, brakes and balancing, we decided to go to a transmission shop. They discovered that there was coolant that had mixed with the transmission fluid. As a matter of fact he had 5 nissan pathfinders on his lot with the same problem. After multiple searches, we discovered that there were hundreds of entries of pathfinder owners with this same problem. Eventually, the car started to stall in the middle of the road. Very dangerous! I have taken the car to nissan in my town and contacted corporate. I will be filing a civil suit if they do not agree to pay and fix my car that i have had for only 3 years.
