Description of the problem	The transmission shakes violently on acceleration. So i drove the vehicle to the dealership for a diagnosis. I have learned that the radiator cracking and leaking into the transmission is a common problem for the 2005 nissan xterra, and that nissan settled a lawsuit in october of 2012. I do not remember getting any information that this might be a problem and i have to pay $3000 to get the transmission and radiator replaced! After 100,000 miles i am stuck to pay the complete cost of the repairs. Is there any kind of recourse for this problem that i am unaware of?
