Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING THE NISSAN FRONTIER ABOUT 50 MPH WHEN THE RPM SHOT UP THEN DROPPED AND THE TRANSMISSION QUIT CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STOP. I HAD TO CROSS TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC TO AVOID A MAJOR ACCIDENT. I MANAGED TO GET THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION LEAKING FLUID INTO THE RADIATOR CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO FAIL WITH OUT ANY WARNING. I WAS TOLD THE FIX WOULD COST ME AROUND 5,500.00 DOLLARS. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND REALLY SHOULD CORRECT IT BEFORE SOME ONE IS KILLED BY THIS OBVIOUS MAJOR MALFUNCTION IN THE DESIGN OF THERE PRODUCT. *TR
