| Description of the problem | My family and i were on the highway close to home,in traffic when our car made a pop noise and our car completely shut down. Luckily no one hit us or hurt, as like i said we were in a heavy commute. Our car was taken to our local mechanic were we found out the transmission failed due to radiator fluid leaking into the system a $5,500 repair we can not afford. We also found out this is a common problem in certain makes of nissans, they have numerous complaints which we were never informed about. All nissan owners should have been notified of the problem and a recall to all models! |
