Consumer Description

NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTING HARD ESPECIALLY IN OVERDRIVE. SOON AFTER THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED ON 4/4/11. ADDED COOLANT TO GET TO GARAGE. UPON INSPECTION FOUND THAT THERE WAS COOLANT IN THE TRANSMISSION. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE TRANSMISSION COOLER AND IT PUT COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION. THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $7400. I CALLED THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME IT WAS A NISSAN ISSUE. CALLED NISSAN CUSTOMER SUPPORT FILED A COMPLAINT. AFTER REVIEWING MY COMPLAINT THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. SEARCHED ON LINE AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY NISSAN'S FROM 2005 -2007 WITH THIS FAILURE. NISSAN IS IGNORING THE ISSUE. CONTACTED THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE AND THEY ARE INVESTIGATING. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAS BEEN SINCE 4/5/11. WE FEEL THAT THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR
