Description of the problem	I noticed in the spring of 2010 my 05 nissan xterra began to stall and sputter at various times. I began to notice a pink/rose colored substance on the ground underneath the front of my truck. In july car wouldn't drive at all and jerked when it finally did move. I took it to a shop and got a diagnosis of a faulty radiator. Had that replaced at a cost of $1200. 00 was informed that the coolant and transmission fluid mixed causing the breakdown. I drove for another few months when the truck gave out in the middle of traffic had to have the truck towed to yet another shop for repair. I was informed that my transmission was toast due to the mixing of the fluids and would need to be replaced/rebuilt at owner's expense. Nissan has yet to admit that the 05 xterra's have radiator faults and recall said vehicles. To get the transmission rebuilt at a cost to me of $2500 and yet i am still having issues with the truck. I received a recall notice for the ecm relay and had that corrected due to "can cause the engine to stop running while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash." my question is if the company can issue a recall for this matter then why not for the faulty radiators that lead to destroyed transmissions. I just got my truck out of the shop and just had the ecm replaced and yet my truck still stalls. When will nissan admit their mistakes and own up to it and recall all said cars and trucks affected and reimburse the consumers for the monies that has been shelled out so far. This is a major safety hazard as i don't wish to be driving along when my truck stalls and i'm rear-ended by another vehicle or by a tractor trailer god forbid. I would like for a solution to this problem and to see that all nissan xterra owners are validated in their concerns regarding this issue. I do hope that in the near future there will be some resolution to this issue as i am not made of money and don't own another vehicle to use at my disposable. Thanks
