| Description of the problem | We have a 2006 nissan pathfinder that has transmission failure due to a defective radiator. This is a known defect that nissan should be held accountable for. We followed all recommended maintenance, most of which was at a nissan dealership. The dealership was negligent in its inspection and repair of our vehicle. When we began to experience transmission failure and had both transmission and coolant contamination, they failed to diagnose the problem. Two nissan dealership inspections in may 2016 outlined that all was well with our vehicle, even after we found that there was no transmission fluid on our dipstick, and it did not appear that the bolt to check the fluid had not been recently removed.
