File date	19/02/13
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Like hundreds of other xterra owners, our radiator line leaked coolant into our transmission and it totally destroyed the transmission, as well as the electrical component. All told, $4,000 to repair (and that was with a hefty discount from aamco). It happened on at highway speeds, and we were lucky not to end up in a wreck. In the two days it took aamco to fix our car, we spoke with two other people who had the exact same thing happen to their xterra's. I am amazed that this is such a common problem and has not been addressed in a more satisfactory manner by nissan. I hope this investigation helps drive nissan to do a recall on these parts before someone gets seriously hurt.
