Description of the problem	I have a 2005 nissan xterra which over the years my engine light would come on for all periods of time and then go off. The first time it came on i ran to the dealership because i could not afford to be broke down. No diagnosis was found (phantom light - $300 to tell no there was no problem) so after that i did not run to the dealer everything the light come one which was most of the time.

The engine light remained on from january until april when i went to the dealership. Finally in early april 2012 i realized that the heats was not working. At the april 10, 2012 inspection the dealership told me i needed a new radiator ($999. 45). They told me the radiator leaked into the transmissions but they were able to fix the problem. The car seemed to work fine after the repair, no difficultly changing over at certain speeds until october 18, 012 when i left work and the car would not start.

Towed to local mechanic (not going back to dealership again) and found out about the transmission cooling problem ($1,950. 98) and two weeks without a car and $100 towing bill. Now i get a letter from about lawsuit with nissan but my vehile
