| Description of the problem | Check engine light came on, took my truck to the dealer to have a diagnostic check, was told by the service staff that the transmission was contaminated with coolant that had leaked from the radiator. Upon further research, i discovered that other nissan makes, models between 2004-2006 had a design flaw which caused the problem in which i now face.. I contacted nissan for some financial assistance on the repair on my transmission, since it appears that the issues related to my problem are from a flaw in the designs of the vehicle. I was told that because my mileage was over a 100,000 miles and past the warranty, that there wasn't anything that could be done as far assisting me with the repairs. I will never buy another nissan product again.... It should be also noted that there was a class action lawsuit again nissan regarding the very problem that i'm faced dealing with... |
