Description of the problem	My 06 nissan pathfinder starting shaking and making a shuttering noise at 40mph. Also a squeaking noise coming from the undercarriage at lower speeds. I took my pathfinder to the dealer to have it looked at. After a few hours the dealership called and told me it was a defect in the transmission cooler built inside the radiator. A line in the cooler cracked letting radiator fluid and transmission fluid to mix together and run all through both my cooling and transmission systems. I have 75,000 miles and was told i'm under the 80,000 mile warranty for these repairs. I was told i would need a new transmission and radiator along with a new thermostat and gasket. I'm one of the lucky ones that will not have to come out of pocket for these repairs. I've been reading post after post about other people having this same problem that are over the mileage warranty and are having to pay co-pays and some that had to pay the full repair bill. Please recall this. There are too many people being affected with this issue.
