| Description of the problem | I purchased a 2007 nissan xterra 200 miles away from my home and while driving it home the vehicle transmission stopped working properly. The vehicle drove ok at highway speeds but once i slowed, to in town speeds, the vehicle lost the gears ability to drive the vehicle. If this occurred to me while on the highway i could have been in a much greater danger. This more than likely has occurred to others that own these types of vehicles, putting them in a very unsafe environment. If there was fluid loss or overheating it could lead to a vehicle fire as well. I would like a recall to occur for the transmission/radiator crossover to the 2005-2010 nissans - xterra, pathfinder, and frontier. *js |
