Description of the problem | I have a 2006 nissan xterra and the radiator leaked. I had no idea that in 2013 they had a class action law suit against them for this very issue. The coolant leaks into the transmission and destroys it. I was driving with my child coming off of a highway onto a rotary and my car shifted down and i couldn't get my car to move more than 10mph while we were in incoming traffic. Nissan will not recall this problem and they settled the lawsuit extending the warranties with a $3000 copay. It's criminal. |
