| Description of the problem | Transmission starting slipping then started jerking while driving then it started overheating. Took it to a nissan dealership because i bought the extended warranty that was supposed to cover the powertrain. They told me that the cooler cracked which caused the radiator fluid to leak into the tranmission and messed up the radiator, which is not covered by the powertrain warranty because the radiator cooler was not part of it. The dealership wants to charge over $6000 to fix it. |
