NHTSA Complaint #10505668 — 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER

THE FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING OVER A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. WHEN WE CONTACTED THE DEALER THEY NEVER TOLD US ABOUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY QUOTED A PRICE THAT WE, A MILITARY FAMILY COULD NOT AFFORD,AND THAT WAS IT. THEN LAST YEAR, A SHUDDERING BEGAN. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND SPENT ALMOST $800. THEY FLUSHED THE TRANSMISSION, BUT THE SHUDDERING ONLY GOT WORSE. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE RADIATOR FLUID LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND NOW BOTH NEED TO BE REPLACED. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY BASICALLY SAID THAT ITS MY PROBLEM!! I HAVE BEEN IN TEARS SINCE. MY HUSBAND IS IN AFGHANISTAN FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY. HE WORKED HARD AND PAID THE CAR OFF 2 MONTHS AGO AND NOW THIS. HE IS SO WORRIED ABOUT US BEING STRANDED WHEN HIS FOCUS SHOULD BE ON WHAT'S HAPPENING THERE. WE DON'T HAVE $8000 TO SPEND ON A CAR THAT WE JUST PAID OFF AND THAT SHOULD BE IN TOP FORM. *TR
