Description of the problem	I am the very unfortunate owner of a 2006 xterra, that is experiencing the infamous radiator leaking coolant fluid into the transmission. I have a 2006 nissan xterra automatic 4wd; purchased in 2009 certified pre-owned w/ 46k miles on it. Now it has 137k on it and i unfortunately experienced the infamous "strawberry milkshake of death" where due to a radiator default it leaks coolant fluid into the transmission causing irreversible damage 2 days ago on may 6th 2017. Right now the radiator is dead as well as the thermostat; a mechanic shop inspected the vehicule as i pulled over to their place when i experienced the issue and stopped driving immediately. I reached out to nissan consumer affair and; to just be able to go forward i must have the car tow to the closest dealership as it is the procedure and they can't determinate anything before car got inspected by official nissan service dpt. Changing the radiator and the transmission will be pay out of my pocket unfortunately at this stage. I am out the mileage settled after the class action suit nissan got hit for this well documented issue. I am just another victim of what should have been a national recall from nissan.
