Description of the problem	I own a 2008 nissan xterra (4x4 4. 0l 6cyl 5 speed automatic transmission) with vehicle mileage of 114k. Im the sole own of the vehicle. In late october of 2012 i had to have the radiator replaced along with the transmission, due to the a interior crack in the radiator causing the coolant to leak into the lines of the transmission fluid. This resulted into complete disaster, as my vehicle was not shifting properly, the transmission began to slip in which the transmission had to be replaced along with the radiator . The two mixed fluids inside the transmission appeared coffee mixed with cream like, the color was a creamy/light brownish inside the transmission. I'm writing to you in hopes this can assist towards the on going investigation and in hopes of a reimbursement with my total repair costs& rental costs, or a vehicle replacement. I hope my story helps the hundreds of others who have similarly been affected in the costly matter. Thanks
