Consumer Description

THE TRUCK HESITATED TO MOVE AT A STOP. (IT DRAGGED REALLY HARD AND IT WAS SLOW) PER MY SON DESCRIBED, NOT SURE IF HE WAS ON THE FREEWAY OR THE STREET WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY MECHANIC. ON TUE OCTOBER 25, 2016. AFTER DIAGNOSED, HE TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAILED. IT NEEDS TO BE REBUILT OR BUY A NEW ONE. THE COST FOR A REBUILT ONE IS $2,800 AND A NEW ONE FROM NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS $5,000. I DECIDED TO GO FOR A REBUILT ONE. THIS HAPPENED ON TUE OCTOBER 25, 2016. THIS TRUCK I BOUGHT USED IN MARCH 2016 AT 114,674 MILES FOR $10,000. I WENT ON LINE TO SEARCH FOR SOMETHING RELATED TO NISSAN FRONTIER 2006 TRANSMISSION AND I FOUND OUT THE WEBSITE RELATING TO THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. I DID CONTACT NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA ON WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 26, 2016 AND THEY TOLD ME TO SEND IN THE INVOICE AFTER THE REPAIR FOR REIMBURSEMENT. UNTIL THE REIMBURSEMENT TAKES PLACE, I AM STILL NERVOUSLY WAITING.
