NHTSA Complaint #10562148 — 2007 NISSAN XTERRA

MY CARS COOLANT GAGE JUMPED STRAIGHT TO H OUT OF NOWHERE. AFTER PULLING INTO A SHELL STATION FOR ANTIFREEZE, IT WAS APPARENT WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THERE WAS SOMETHING MIXED IN WITH THE ANTIFREEZE. IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. AFTER BEING TOLD I WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR, I STARTED RESEARCHING AND IM NOT THE ONLY ONE DEALING WITH AN OTHERWISE GREAT BODY YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITH AND DOUBT I WILL BE THE LAST. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH IT APPEARS THAT NO RECALL HAS BEEN APPROVED AND I BELIEVE THERE ARE MANY OF US WONDERING WHY? THIS IS A CONSISTENT PROBLEM WITH HUNDREDS OF CARS AND IT'S NOT EVEN ONE MAKE, IT'S MANY. 3 IN MY CATEGORY. DOES A RECALL ONLY HAPPEN WHEN IT HAS FATALITY ATTACHED? THIS IS A FAULTY SYSTEM AND NISSAN APPROVED THESE COOLANTS IN THE TRANSMISSIONS AND CONTINUED TO EVEN AFTER COMPLAINTS OF THE SYSTEM. I WAS LUCKY TO CATCH MINE RIGHT AWAY BUT STILL NEED $3000 TO FIX IT! IT WON'T BE LONG UNTIL FATALITY IS ATTACHED ONCE SOMEONE'S TRANSMISSION GOES OUT ON A HIGHWAY OR IN 5 O'CLOCK TRAFFIC! NISSAN NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL!!! *TR
