| Description of the problem | I had an issue approximately 6 months ago regarding my radiator. The coolant and transmission fluids were mixing due to a defective (known) issue. My transmission has now failed due to a rusted valve body in the transmission. In fact it completely failed as i was driving. After pulling into a parking lot, it would not go into gear, any gear. These issues are obviously directly linked but i am now left holding the bag due to the fact that nissan's extension of the warranty covers only vehicles with up to 100k miles. I am now nearing 115k miles. |
