Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION STARTED JERKING VERY BAD WHEN IT HIT 1700 RPM RANGE WHILE DRIVING, SO I SLOWED DOWN...SCARED. I WENT AND HAD IT CHECKED ONLY TO FIND OUT IT IS VERY COMMON WITH THIS TRUCK - FLUID IN TRANSMISSION CAUSED FROM THE TRANS FLUID RUNNING THROUGH THE RADIATOR AND THE HEAT EXCHANGE LEAKS WATER INTO THE TRANS FLUID. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM I LEARNED. THE REPAIR IS NOT COVERED BY NISSAN AND IS A 5000 DOLLAR REPAIR AT NISSAN DEALERSHIP, A TOTAL TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR REPLACEMENT IS NEEDED. *TR
