Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM CARMAX IN 2012 W/ 76K MILES ON IT. NO WARNING ABOUT POSSIBLE RADIATOR ISSUE. IN MAY OF 2013, RADIATOR FLUID HAD LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND RESULTED IN TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 96K MILES.(THANKFULLY, I WAS NOT MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY). PAID $3K CO-PAY TO HAVE TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR REPLACED. FEBRUARY 4, 2014, TRANSMISSION HOSE BLEW WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WAS ASSURED THAT IT WAS NOT RELATED TO THE PREVIOUS REPAIRS. PAID $262 TO HAVE IT FIXED. MARCH 9, 2014, WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, RPMS SPIKED, ACCELERATION WAS SLUGGISH, MADE IT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP - TRANSMISSION FAILURE (LESS THAN 1 YEAR LATER) - 105K MILES. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT THESE TRANSMISSION FAILURES DID NOT OCCUR WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MERGE ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY. *TR
