| Description of the problem | Started noticing in march 2007 a noise like running over a rumble strip for brief periods that we thought were either our new tires or road surfaces. Later we noticed it started getting longer and it seemed liked it had a hard time shifting gears. We took it to our nissan dealer who informed us that there was a leakage between the cooling system and the transmission which in time will cause the transmission to fail. We also found out they were aware of this problem,but we were never notified. Now they told us even with and extended warranty to 80k we were past that at 81k. I feel they should be forced back to up their known defects and issue a recall. |
