NHTSA Complaint #10902015 — 2007 NISSAN XTERRA

LAST YEAR WHILE DRIVING MY CAR I BEGIN TO NOTICE A "JERKING" MOTION. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT I WOULD NEED A FLUSH AND THAT THIS WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD ROUGHLY A MONTH LATER AND MY CAR COMPLETELY GAVE OUT WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. NO WARNING JUST STOPPED DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS "GONE" BECAUSE THE COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO THE TRANSMISSION. I SIMPLY CAN NOT AFFORD TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE BEING A SINGLE MOTHER. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN AND FILED A COMPLAINT AND WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE MY CAR WAS SLIGHTLY OVER 100,00 MILES THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS S DEFECT IN THE EQUIPMENT THAT NISSAN IS SEEKING AND THE MILEAGE SHOULD NOT MATTER. THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF RESOLUTION ON THE MATTER. AS IT STANDS MY CAR HAS BEEN IMMOBILE FOR THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS AND I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS. IT'S A SAD SITUATION AND NISSAN SHOULD BE ASHAMED, SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE.
