Description of the problem | Started having over heating issues in 8/2012. Eventually had radiator completely replaced in 2/14. Had transmission flushed around same time. On 3/26/14, i was on the interstate going 65mph when i lost use of the transmission, causing the engine to stall, barely avoiding a serious accident. Today found out there is a defect with nissan radiators over heating and causing coolant to leak into the transmission, deteriorating the gears over time. Spent around $1,000. 00 getting the radiator replaced unaware of this factory defect. Now i am without a functioning vehicle and i think lucky to be alive. |
