Description of the problem	Complete catastrophic engine failure during rush hour traffic. Luckily i was approaching a red light and there were cars slowing ahead of me i was able to brake slowly to a stop while i was not able to be steer. I had to be pushed to the side of the road by the help of others. The vehicle was towed to the pinnacle nissan dealership where they informed me that the transmission and the radiator has to be fully replaced due to a faulty valve . Nissan said the valve that connects the radiator and transmission broke allowing coolant and anti freeze to mix together and immediately catastrophically destroying both components. I was informed that their was a classaction suit for this very reason that was settled but this is very dangerous if i had been in a freeway situation. Nissan has had numerous complaints for this vehicle for this reason. I have had every recall part for this vehicle needed to be replaced due to faulty manufacturing, this is a very expensive repair and it has been known due to the # of complaints on this particular part being faulty but a recall needs to happen not at the expense of nissan. I am expected to cover this with a deductible of $2500. 00 at no fault of my own . I am lucky to be alive. I have maintained all necessary/reccomended service outlined by nissan up till l this failure. Thank you
