| Description of the problem | I took my nissan xterra 2007 into boulder nissan in october 2013. At the time, it had under 100,000 miles. Upon examination of the car for lack of heat, they said they flushed it and eventually i would have to replace the radiator. They did not tell me that there was a class action lawsuit against nissan for defective parts leaking coolant into the transmission. I returned to nissan in jan. 2015 for the same problem and was hit with a bill for $5,200 to replace the radiator, transmission, timing chain and thermostat. |
