| Description of the problem | Problem with radiator fluid leaking into the transmission, which has now damaged the transmission. Since nissan won't do the right thing and we're beyond the 80,000 miles, we're stuck paying for a new radiator and transmission. Instead of getting away with doing nothing except for extending the warranty, nissan should have been required to notify all affected people regarding the exact problem and issued a recall and pay for a new radiator. This obviously is still an issue for alot people and probably many, many more in the future, long after the so-called proposed settlement. Too the nhtsa! Please investigate and require nissan do the right thing! |
