| Description of the problem | Started noticing a vibration in the pathfinder at 40 miles per hour. Called to set an appointment and the dealer did not get back to me. The problem got worse called again and got through after waiting 20 minutes. Took it in today and was told i need a radiator and transmission for $4500. 00. I told them to let me think about it. Then found out that this is going on with many nissan vehicles. There was a class action law suit but because i now have over 100000 miles it does not apply to me. So this manufacturing defect is totally out of pocket for me. If they know of a manufacturing defect should this not be a recall. |
