| Description of the problem | Shifts rough - nissan dealership diagnosed as cross contamination of engine coolant, atf, and milky radiator cap. Recommed replacement of transmission, radiator, trans cooler and thermostat. Quoted $6400. 00 to repair. Who has $6400 laying around for car repairs. With only 122,000 miles on car i certainly didn't think i would be needing to purchase another car and have car payments right now. No help from nissan and we just found out about this problem and that nissan is well aware of it. They should be covering the problem. |
