| Description of the problem | Beware 2006 pathfinders radiator problems then transmission dies. Our transmission went suddenly as we were on a mini trip. We got stuck several times trying to get home. Very dangerous. Thank god we did not get into an accident and no one hit us as we were stuck in the middle of a busy highway. We were lucky we got home safely but it was a scary and dangerous experience. We did not know what was wrong with the car. We then get it towed and of cause its the transmission. Same problem everyone is having with these cars. Nissan should of had these cars recalled or extended the warranties so that no one has to deal with this problem and go through the hell we went through on our mini trip trying to get home safely. They are risking people's lives. |
