Consumer Description

IT STARTED WITH THE HEAT IN MY 2005 PATHFINDER NOT WANTING TO HEAT UP UNLESS GOING OVER 55 MPH. THEN SUDDEN JERKING WITH THE VEHICLE WHEN GOING OVER SPEEDS OF 40. HAD TRANSMISSION FLUSHED AND WORKED FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS. THEN AS MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD IT BEGAN TO LOSE ACCELERATION AND CAME TO A STOP. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED AND IT HASN'T STARTED SINCE? THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US THE TRANSMISSION WAS COMPLETELY OUT. THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO COOLANT LEAKING INTO THE TRANSMISSION. REPAIRS ARE GOING TO BE $5100. THE CAR HAS 92,000 MILES! STILL WAITING TO HEAR IF NISSAN MANUFACTURERS ARE GOING TO FIX THE DAMAGE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS VEHICLE TO DRIVE BECAUSE WHEN IT GOES OUT IT WILL COMPLETELY GO OUT AND IF YOU ARE ON THE HIGHWAY THIS IS VERY SCARY!! *TR
