Description of the problem	2005 nissan xterra. Highway driving and car began to shake violently. It was hard to stay in control for a bit there. Hard to figure out what it was but i have. Nissan xterra's have a problem with the radiator failing and leaking coolant into the transmission, thereby ruining it. My car has been overheating and the transmission giving out while i'm traveling at highway speeds with my wife and two children in car seats. Nissan voluntarily extended warranty on the radiator. That is no help to the consumer as once the radiator fails you also have a bad transmission. Please make them accountable for their unethical dodging of a serious problem --- and a dangerous one! Thank you.
