| Description of the problem | Nissan pathfinder just got to 100,000 miles when started experiencing transmission issues, turns out there was a factory warranty that i was never informed of that would have covered the radiator/transmission issue. However because i was not having an issue until the extended warranty ended nissan is refusing to cover the cost of repairs despite knowing about this engineering fault. It is extremely frustrating that a large company such as nissan is able to send a vehicle out into the public with known engineering flaws and put a mileage limit on repairing the issue. It is something that will inevitably fail but it is only a matter of time so it might have occurred within the limit for some and outside the limit for others. It is my hope that you will expose this shady and unsafe practice that nissan has going and help get people the repairs they deserve. |
