Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Just after exiting freeway, vehicle's automatic transmission failed to engage in any forward gears. This caused forward movement to reduce to extremely slow motion. If this occurred while on the freeway, and if a driver panicked, not immediately moving off to the side, it could have caused an accident with potentially serious consequences. This problem is widely known and has been dealt with to a limited extent. Don't see a place on this complaint form to indicate what the problem is. Transmission was contaminated with coolant due to lower trans line in radiator's lower tank being ruptured. Radiator was also cross contaminated with transmission fluid. This common problem in certain model 2005 - 2007 nissan's is not currently a recall (it should be), and the limited extended warranty in the nissan settlement offers no reimbursement for vehicles having this problem with over 100,000 miles, as is the case with most of us. I hope you are aware of the several thousand people who have had this potentially dangerous problem over the years, and the thousands more who will continue to have this same problem in the years to come.

What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
