Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2003 NISSAN MURANO SL. I WAS GETTING AN OIL CHANGE AND NOTICED A DISCHARGE IN MY RADIATOR OVERFLOW. I ASKED THE GUY TO DRAIN THE RADIATOR AND RESERVOIR AND REFILL IT WITH FRESH ANTIFREEZE. THE DISCHARGE RETURNED AND THE CAR BECAME DISABLED IN A BUSY INTERSECTION, WITH NO WARNING LIGHT PRIOR. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY SEEMED TO KNOW EXACTLY THE ISSUE. THE TRANSMISSION FLUID HAD MIXED WITH THE RADIATOR COOLANT?! THEY CHARGED ME $1265.76 AND SAID IT WASN'T COVERED BECAUSE I WAS BEYOND 36,000 MILES. THE RADIATOR LOOKS NEW AND I JUST HAVE TO TAKE THEIR WORD FOR THIS, EVEN THOUGH THEY CAN'T SHOW ME THE PROBLEM. SINCE THEY WERE SO QUICK TO IDENTIFY THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE TO THINK THEY ARE SEEING IT A LOT AND MAYBE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. I TOOK THE OLD RADIATOR WITH ME AND STILL HAVE IT. YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. *NM
