| Description of the problem | I really do not know where to begin. My truck would not start 8/26/13. I learned that the dreaded radiator coolant leak had finally destroyed my transmission computer system and transmission. I first learned that this could become a problem in february of 2011 when my vehicle was at about 96,300 miles. The nissan dealership gave me a number to call, i did and was told at that time that i could pay $6000 out of pocket and possibly be reimbursed later as my vehicle vin was not in the current list of vehicles being offered the "special warranty coverage". I was given a case number and told i would be mailed information about all future matters regarding this problem. I did not have $6000 then, i do not have $3000 now. That is the amount of the deductible the nissan dealer says i would be responsible for paying if nissan honors the time i initially reported this problem to them. I need some help. My husband is active duty navy and i kept this vehicle serviced and did everything i was supposed to do to make sure this vehicle stayed in great condition and now i have a vehicle that is no longer working. I hope you can help us. |
