| Description of the problem | I took my nissan pathfinder on 3 different occasions for the same problem and nissan is fully aware of the problem. 1st visit 11/29/2011, 2nd visit 3/12/2012, 3rd visit 6/11/2012 intermix with coolant and tranny fluid, replaced radiator 800. 00, told me to come back and test fluids after 1000 miles, same issue, flushed out the tran fluid 250. 00,t old me to come back after 1000 miles to test fluid, same problem. Paid 600. 00 to clean out transmission pan and whatever bs they told me, now rpms are revving high when i try to take off, and i am at risk for stalling or transmission failing in the middle of intersection or highway. My wife and i are expecting our 1st child in january and i do not feel safe bringing our newborn in this vehicle and putting her life at risk. I called nissan consumer affairs, and lodged a complaint then another rep called me back and said i do not qualify for financial assistance to repair my vehicle because i have 98k on my vehicle and the extended warranty they offered was up to 80k. Regardless there are many pathfinder owners with this problem, she displayed no empathy, and kept saying the same thing, "i understand your frustration, but we cannot help you".... Unbelievable!! Vehicle has 98k and it's paid off. Don't want a new vehicle, and want nissan to take responsibility for this issue and for everyone who has this problem! |
