Description of the problem	Upon exiting a highway, where traffic was congested and slow moving, my 2005 nissan xterra suddenly refused to accelerate. Suddenly, smoke appeared to be emanating from the undercarriage of my suv. Initially, it appeared that my vehicle had caught on fire. Two passing fireman assisted me and determined that i had a transmission issue because of the fluid that was leaked onto the street. Since the xterra was not drivable, it was towed to a transmission repair center. It was determined that the transmission failure was caused by a malfunctioning radiator. Apparently, radiator fluid contaminated the transmission fluid and severely damaged the transmission.
