I get regular Maintenance on my car and have owned it for numerous years. I was driving on a major highway & with no warning the car shut off and locked up. The power steering was completely gone. If it hadn't been for going down hill I probably would of gotten hit as I tried to get off the road. My seat belt locked in place and I had to climb out of the seat belt to get out of the vehicle. The doors were also locked and had an issue opening them at first in 91degree heat it was a very scary experience.
THE DEALER I WORK FOR HAD CHECKED MY VEHICLE SINCE IT HAS BEEN LEAKING PINK FLUID FROM MY ENGINE TURNS OUT THEY FOUND ON MY 20007 NISSAN PATHFINDER A COOLANT IN TRANSMISSION MEANING THERE IS AN INTERNAL TRANSMISSION CROSS CONTAMINATION COOLER FAILURE. BOTTOM LINE THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND FIXED ME HOSES FOR THE POWER STEERING FLUID COSTING ME OVER $5300.00 WITH A HUGE DEALERSHIP. I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY 16, 2015 FROM A PRIVATE DEALER AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A HUGE BILL TO FIX SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE A AWARE OF NATIONALLY. THIS VEHICLE'S CARFAX IS AWESOME AND NO ENGINE ISSUES WHICH I MADE IT MY BUSINESS TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS OKAY WITH THIS VEHICLE. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF THIS...WHY DO I HAVE SUFFER BEING WITHOUT A CAR AGAIN AS A SINGLE MOTHER OF THREE THIS IS NOT...
