| Description of the problem | Couple years ago around 60,000 mile or so ago started to notice hesitancy when shifting around 40mph. Nissan stated that was due to how i broke the car in. So i let it go thinking that it was okay... Then it started at 60mph and kept getting worse at every gear, sounded like i was driving on rumble strips. So i take it to a mechanic they inform me that it was caused by the radiator fluid leaking into the transmission. Which i see now that is an ongoing problem! I contacted nissan and they said there is nothing they can do because i was over the miles on the extended warranty now. If it was an ongoing problem why was i not notified? They had no answer so i am just informing you that this is still happening and to get it on record. |
