Consumer Description

RADIATOR CRACKED LEAKING COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION THAT IS IMPACTING THE ABILITY FOR TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. NOW, WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR RANDOMLY STALLS AND LOSES ALL POWER. WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, IT HAS BECOME NECESSARY TO RESTART THE CAR WHILE ROLLING IN NEUTRAL TO AVOID HAVING TO SWITCH LANES INTO FASTER MOVING CARS. I'VE BEEN INFORMED BY NISSAN THAT IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM AND AN $8000 REPAIR TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR, TRANSMISSION, TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE, AND FLUSH EVERYTHING OUT.
