| Description of the problem | The transmission went out at an intersection. Exit #407 in tennessee. 250miles away from home. The transmission never hesitated or slipped.... Just got to the intersection and it wouldn't go. It finally caught after almost causing an accident and i got to a parking spot but the transmission wouldn't go into gear after the fact. I towed the car home to bob richards nissan in north augusta and was told that the radiator cracked causing a mixture of radiator and transmission fluid. |
