Consumer Description

INTERNAL RADIATOR FAILURE THAT LED TO A TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD THE RADIATOR REPLACED AT A COST OF $1,300.00 BY THE NISSAN DEALER WHERE THEY ASSURED ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS FINE. A MONTH LATER I PAID $5,000.00 TO AAMCO TO HAVE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION REBUILT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO COUNTLESS 2005 PATHFINDERS AND XTERRAS. NISSAN WILL NOT PROVIDE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE OR MAKE A RECALL. NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE! *CN
