Consumer Description

SUDDEN LOUD NOISES/BANGING WHILE DRIVING. PULLED OVER, HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO MECHANIC. RADIATOR FOUND TO BE CRACKED. RADIATOR FLUID LEAKED INTO AND CONTAMINATED TRANSMISSION CAUSING SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE. LEARNED NISSAN WAS/IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAS NOT NOTIFIED ANYONE OF PREVENTATIVE MEASURES TO PREVENT FAILURE OF TRANSMISSION. "EXTENDED WARRANTY" RESULTING FROM CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REQUIRES $3000 COPY FOR VEHICLES WITH 90,000-100,000 MILES. MY MECHANIC SAYS THIS IS A JOKE BECAUSE RADIATORS NOT CRACKING UNTIL AT LEAST THIS TIME. NOW I HAVE TO PAY $3000 I DON'T HAVE TO REPAIR THE TRANSMISSION WHICH I COULD HAVE SAVED HAD I BEEN NOTIFIED TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR. I WILL NOT EVER PURCHASE A NISSAN AGAIN. *TR
