Consumer Description

THERE IS A LEAK IN MY RADIATOR WHICH AS GONE INTO MY TRANSMISSION RENDERING IT INOPERABLE. MECHANICS RECOMMEND TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION DUE TO THIS MASSIVE DESIGN FLAW NISSAN HAS BEEN WELL AWARE OF FOR YEARS. ...UPDATED 12/03/15 *BF I'VE SPOKEN WITH MY NISSAN DEALER AS WELL AS THE DEALER THAT LOOKED OVER THE CAR WHEN I PURCHASED IT AND BOTH SAID IT'S A MASSIVE PROBLEM AND CUSTOMERS HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF OR WHEN IT COULD OCCUR, AND THEREFORE NO WAY OF PREVENTING IT. I UNDERSTAND THE NORTH CAROLINA CONSUMER COUNCIL FILED A PETITION BACK IN 2012 AND THAT THE COMPLAINT VOLUME HAS BEEN TREMENDOUS ON THIS ISSUE. I HOPE THE NHTSA COMES TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THIS PART SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I HAVE NO FAMILY VEHICLE NOW AND CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY $7500 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION, THAT HAD NO ISSUES AT ALL UNTIL THE DEFECTIVE RADIATOR GOT A HOLE. THANK YOU *TR
