| Description of the problem | I am one of those unfortunate individuals who recently bought a 2008 nissan pathfinder le which was in great shape and maintained well with an almost impeccable carfax report. Just after having the vehicle in the middle of driving the vehicle got stuck in 4th gear loosing all access to other gears and nearly causing me to have a collision with other vehicles. I took it to a mechanic and they told me it was the fluid from the radiator in the transmission and will cost several thousand dollars to fix. |
