| Description of the problem | About 10,000 miles ago i noticed a vibration at 40 and 60mph. I took it to a local dealer who replaced two u joints and sent me on my way. Well, vibration is back, not only that now that it is winter, my vehicle wont warm up from an idle. It never blows hot air. These are a couple of symptoms that going forward show the radiator leaking into the transmission causing damage to the gaskets, seals,gears, torque converter. Please help the radiator obviously need replacing but not only that the transmission is messed up and stalls out now from time to time. It is really expensive to replace and should be covered under a recall program so it forces nissan to recall just the radiators beofre they start leaking. |
