 Description of the problemFor the past week when ever i drove my car the entire vehicle shudders, shakes and has a harsh upshift when it is changing gears. It happens the most on highways going at high speeds (55-65 miles). I took my car into a nissan dealership on 1-29-14 to get it checked out. The dealership diagnosed my car with a "broken trans cooler line in radiator which made the coolant leak and mixed with transmission fluid. Advise replace entire transmission, radiator, and flush engine block as well as replace thermostat, (price to fix: $5938. 00 + 9% tax)". I researched this issue online and found this to be a common defect issue that nissan has been dancing around since 2007, as well as a class action lawsuit being filed against nissan. I bought the car on july 28, 2011, so i have only owned the car for a little over 2 years in which the dealership i purchased the car from did not inform us of this warranty being offered by nissan from the lawsuit or informed us of the possible transmission problem. I had the car completely checked out by a mechanic in november of 2013 and it passed with no issues. Now here we are 2 months later, and over 100,000 miles and my nissan experiences this issue. This can be a very detrimental and dramatic failure, causing massive safety issues if i continue to drive my car, especially on highways going high speeds. I contacted nissan this morning to see if they are going to stand behind their product and since i am only 11,000 miles over their "warranty" (which has high deductibles), they denied to help and i am left holding a $6500. 00 price tag to fix my car.
