Description of the problem	Your website would not allow me to put in the transmission and radiator as affected parts. My vehicle with 77,000 miles on it had a slipping issue with my transmission and was brought to the dealership, along with the warranty upgrade notice provided by nissan, for service. I notified the dealership of the transmission slipping and of the warranty notice, and that i wanted it looked at. They came back to me and verbally stated that there was no issue with my transmission. Dealer did not note it on the work order that they test drove and said there was no issue. Nissan is known to have radiator problems that lead to transmission failure for my type of vehicle. There is a class action lawsuit out right now about the issue. Nissan refused to do the work unless i paid for the $3000 co-pay, and paid for the timing chain shoes, another nissan known issue, another $1800. My vehicle is a 2008 pathfinder with 92000 miles on it now. Just want nissan to stand behind their product properly and replace the items required at no charge to me. Both of the issues could lead to a failure and cause a major accident.
