| Description of the problem | On december 12 2013 i was driving down highway 195,speed limit was 65 miles an hour, about ten minutes on my way home i heard a knocking sound coming from my 2006 nissan pathfinder, as i pulled over on the break down lane i got out and check under the hood and saw nothing so i continue to drive i got off the highway and drove it to the dealership where i purchase the vehicle ,and they looked at the vehicle and told me it was the transmission and it was going to cost me $5400. 00 to replace it and if i don't like it, i can take it to nissan dealership in dartmouth ma, which i did, and they said the same thing and that there was no recall on the transmission so there is nothing they can do for me but put me in another vehicle with monthly payments, so i took my nissan pathfinder to a mechanic business call safe guard transmission located on dartmouth street in new bedford ma, which i ended up paying 3600. 00 to replace the transmission. I need to be reimburse for the amount i spent on the transmission that a recall was on, if your company refuse i will contact the attorney general. |
