Description of the problem	I was informed by the dealership service department that radiator fluid had contaminated transmission fluid in my 2005 nissan xterra. This defect in the radiator was known to occur in high mileage vehicles such as mine and was known to nissan as they extended a service warranty to 100,000 miles. Unfortunately, my vehicle's mileage is over the extended warranty and i am now responsible for the cost of the repairs. This is a huge safety issue as the transmission plays a vital role in the ability for the vehicle to accelerate into and across traffic on busy highways and roads. The inability to do so properly with a defective transmission may lead to accidents. Not to mention that the contaminated radiator coolant may not accomplish the intended goal of cooling engine components leading to over heating and engine dysfunction. I feel strongly that nissan new about the defect and did not take appropriate action to notify consumers to have the radiators replaced prior to having complications from the defective parts. *js
