Consumer Description

IN THE MIDDLE OF A HEAVY STORM FROM THE WAKE OF AN F3 TORNADO THAT SWEPTED THROUGH, MY WIFE AND I WERE STUCK IN HEAVY WIND AND RAIN IN AN OPEN AREA UNABLE TO START OUR 2008 PATHFINDER AFTER PULLING OVER. JUST PRIOR, OUR TRANSMISSION STARTED SHIFTING HARD AND SLAMMING INTO GEAR. I GOT OUT IN THE WIND AND RAIN AND AFTER LOOKING OVER THE VEHICLE AFTER IT COOLED DOWN, THATS WHEN I NOTICED OIL AND WATER WERE MIXED IN THE RADIATOR.THE PATHFINDER NOW SITS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. IT WENT FROM PARKED AND RUNNING TO DEAD ON THIE SIDE OF THE ROAD.
