Description of the problem	A few days prior to this vehicle's shut down, i had noticed when driving at either 40 mph or 60 mph, the vehicle would start to 'vibrate'; the feel was as if driving on the highway and the tires are driving over the meridian entering the brake down lane. The alignment wasn't the issue. The day of incident, i was driving on a 50 mph main street, when approaching 40 mph, the vehicle shut down. After about 10 minutes, the vehicle started back up, enough time to drive 5 minutes back home. Once towed to the garage & after inspection i was told there was a crack in the atf line which caused coolant to mix with transmission fluid in result causing my transmission to fail. Of course i just went over my 100,000 ml warranty, my vehicle is just at 126,000 ml! I am the only owner of this vehicle & have done well maintaining it. After doing research on this issue, i am disgusted with nissan not taking ownership to this situation! This model alone has the most complaints with this specific issue, and to only do an extended recall up to 80,000 ml is ridiculous when this issue appears to happen from 90,000 ml +!!!!!!! I bought this vehicle brand new, with the hopes to have it live for almost 300,000 ml, which i was told by the dealership prior to me buying. This company used to have a great reputation..... Let's pray they try to get it back. I hope nissan owns up to this situation & is just not sitting around until a death happens to recall it!
