Description of the problem	Our pathfinder seemingly lost power and control, almost resulting in near collision with another vehicle approaching and another vehicle behind almost rear ended while turning into shopping plaza. Coasted to side while smoke and yellowish/ green liquid poured out from the hood. Had to have it towed. Mechanics analysis was related to contamination from coolant / radiator / transmission. Complete failure of transmission and radiator and cross contamination of all related parts. Possibly $6000 to $8000 repair costs. Total loss to us, and we still owe for financing, truck is probably not even valued at that.
