| Description of the problem | Internal radiator failure that led to a transmission failure in the middle of the highway. I had the radiator replaced at a cost of $1,300. 00 by the nissan dealer where they assured me that the transmission was fine. A month later i paid $5,000. 00 to aamco to have the entire transmission rebuilt. This has happened to countless 2005 pathfinders and xterras. Nissan will not provide financial assistance or make a recall. Nissan needs to be held responsible! *cn |
