Description of the problem	Sitting at light in the left lane, waiting for it to turn green and all of a sudden the car started making a loud racing sound. Not sure if it was transmission or engine making the noise. I looked at my gauges and saw the temperature gauge was on h. I had to wait for the light to turn green, because i was at an intersection, in the left lane, to get on the highway and there were cars on my right and cars going in the other direction. As soon as i could move, i pulled over to a safe spot, but before i could, the car started overheating and smoke started coming out of the hood. It was towed to my garage and after my mechanic looked at it, he said this is a known issue for nissan xterras 2007, because the radiator is defective. The coolant mixes with the transmission and the car stops running! Apparently, nissan knows that the part is defective so they extended warranty to 80,000 mile and anything past that i have to pay. Well, i have 90,400 miles and can't believe that nissan can get away with knowing a part is defective and not recalling all trucks affected. They certainly changed the radiator design for the newer vehicles, admitting that it is a problem. They should recall the cars and replace the defective part. It is all over the internet, because the problem is so widespread and nissan will not take ownership of it!!!!!!. Please look into this and look on the internet to see how common this issue is for xterras and all the people that got screwed by nissan. Thank you.
