| Description of the problem | Radiator coolant leaking into transmission, causing transmission failure. Dealership has informed me because i am over 100,000 miles there is no coverage and will cost me upto 8,000. My current mileage at diagnostic was 104,000 miles. My pathfinder is in great shape and has a lot of driving left in it. I feel let down by nissan that they have known about this defect and will not stand by the fault to keep customer loyalty and satisfaction. I do not trust nissan and never will again, they have proven to me they do not care about their customers and do not stand behind their product. I am in a position as a single mother with 3 kids that i cannot afford 8,000 dollars to fix this known problem. I could not believe that they were prepared to do nothing....... |
