| Description of the problem | Same as many bought 2008 pathfinder had 65,000 miles one year ago in roanoke va,started missing ,when checking radiator and transmission fluid were were cream like color,paid 104 dollars at maintenance garage to find problem of cracked in radiator part causing to mix. Now need new transmission which my compartment is 3000 dollars,which is ridiculous since this is evidently a common failure which i was not informed of. When spoke with nissan stated this is all court ordered them to do ... Sorry for your inconvenience.. I don't have that kind of money,still owe on this vehicle thought i was buying a dependable car,have extended insurance won't pay cause of nissan extended warranty... Think this should have been a recall and consumer notified this is a major car issue and expense.... Nissan should be ashamed doing there consumers that way.. Please spread the word.. |
