2013 Nissan Pathfinder Engine Problems

Vehicle started to overheat. Informed by mechanic that one of the 2 electric fans that pull air thru the radiator had gone bad. This also caused the A/C compressor to shut off causing the interior of the vehicle to reach over 100 degrees in less than 15 minutes while driving thru town on a 95+ degree day with the windows rolled down.

Known CVT Judder on my vehicle and service bulletin. They will not assist payment any repairs for an unsafe vehicle due to mileage. They have had many recalls but refuse to recall this vehicle and continue to market and sell without notifying consumers of known faulty transmission that does not create a check engine lite and effects driving. I have not been in an accident but those could cause an accident and is very unsafe.

Severe jumping, shaking, shuddering when accelerating after a stop - between 10 - 25 mph. Now it's in the shop, will not drive due to transmission issue.

I noticed a leak under my car with fresh fluid. It took me months to figure out where it was coming from. I removed the undercover where the bumper is and saw the leaking coming from the transmission oil cooler hose at the elbow connection. I looked online and noticed this exact recall: 2013 PATHFINDER; CVT FLUID LEAK AT COOLER HOSE For some odd reason my VIN was not listed under the recall. Looks like I have to fix Nissan’s issue out of my own pocket

Electric fan stopped working properly causing the vehicle to overheat.

I HAVE TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION FOR THE 2 TIME . THE FIRST NISSAN SEND ME RECALL AN D THIS ONE I HAVE TO PAY FOR MY SELF, VERY BAD TRANSMISSION. I KNOW PEOPLE SUFFER FOR THIS SITUATION, IN THE 2019 MY CAR STARTED WITH SMALL SIGNAL, BUT IN 03/ 01/2021 I HAVES THE DIAGNOSTIC FOR THE PROBLEM THAN YOU SO MUCH FOR PAY ATTENTION TO THIS PROBLEM. MARLENE F SILVA

THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT RESPOND WHEN I ACCELERATE IT AND IT DOES NOT PASS THE GEAR CHANGES, WHEN IT GOES OVER 40 MILES PER HOUR AND I STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR SO THAT IT INCREASES SPEED IT DOES NOT AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE.

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CVT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR FROM CARMAX AND WAS SENT TO NISSAN FOR A RESET. NO ISSUE WAS FOUND AT THAT TIME. THE CAR IS SHUTTERING AND STALLING OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING FULL SPEED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE/FREEWAY AS WELL AS OTHER BUSY ROADS LEAVING MYSELF AND MY CHILD STRANDED AND IN NEAR ACCIDENTS. NISSAN REFUSES TO HELP WITH THIS PART. IT SHOULD 100% BE A RECALL. INSTEAD, NISSAN ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I WAS NOT NOTIFIED ABOUT AND EXPIRED TWO WEEKS, JULY 31, 2020 BEFORE I CONTACTED NISSAN WITH THE WORSENING ISSUE. THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE MY CAR HAD 98,000 MILES INSTEAD OF 80,000/ I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOUR YEARS, I AM FINANCIALLY STRUGGLING BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC, AND MAKING PAYMENTS ON A CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT NISSAN'S FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSIONS. PLEASE HELP!!!!! THIS STARTED AGAIN TWO WEEKS INTO AUGUST WHEN I INITIALLY CONTACTED NISSAN. THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN UNDIAGNOSED TRANSMISSION ISSUE. THESE SHOULD BE REPLACED AS RECALLS OR DEEMED LEMONS. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NOVEMBER OF 2016.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE AIR EMISSIONS COULD HAVE CAUSED THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO VISIT A NISSAN DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GARDEN CITY NISSAN (316 N FRANKLIN ST, HEMPSTEAD, NY 11550, (516) 483-4400) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND ENGINE SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE SENSOR WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REPAIRED, BUT NOT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 74,000.

COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY, BAD BEARINGS IN FAN MOTORS. LOUD NOISE DUE TO BAD BEARINGS IN FAN. OCCURS PRIMARILY WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER CLUTCH ENGAGES AND COOLING FANS COME ON. ALSO OCCURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN COOLING FANS COME ON. LOUD ROARING NOISE. I ORDERED A TYC623760 REPLACEMENT FAN ASSEMBLY TO REPLACE THE NISSAN/VALEO M154880 UNIT WITH MANUFACTURE DATE OF 12-15-2012 SERIAL #TOWM157978. I AM REPORTING THIS AFTER READING HOW COMMON THIS ISSUE IS IN 2013-2017 NISSAN PATHFINDERS AND THE RATES DEALERS ARE CHARGING FOR THE REPAIR. I SAW ONLINE THAT DEALERS CHARGE $850.00 TO 1250.00. MY LOCAL DEALER CHARGES $980.00 PLUS TAX. I PAID $176.00 FOR THE PART AND IT TOOK ME UNDER 90 MINUTES TO INSTALL AFTER WATCHING A YOUTUBE VIDEO. THIS WAS A REPAIR ANYONE COULD DO THAT DIDN'T MIND A LITTLE GRIME ON THEIR HANDS. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT INSTEAD OF ISSUING A RECALL ON A CLEARLY FLAWED PART, THAT NISSAN IS VIEWING THIS AS A MONEY MAKER FOR THEIR DEALERSHIPS.

I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT, WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE THE CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND STARTED JERKING. I STOPPED AT A GAS STATION TO INVESTIGATE AND THE CAR HESITATED TO SHIFT OUT OF DRIVE OR REVERSE. I AM HAVING TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE CVT TRANSMISSION AND HAVE COME TO KNOW THE FOLLOWING: THE TRANSMISSION DEFECT CREATES AN UNREASONABLY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND CREATES THE RISK OF A CRASH; IT IS INEVITABLE THAT AN INDIVIDUAL WILL BE INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO A COLLISION CAUSED BY THIS SAFETY DEFECT. NISSAN'S CVTS EXPERIENCE SUDDEN, UNEXPECTED SHAKING AND VIOLENT JERKING (COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS 'JUDDERING' OR 'SHUDDERING') THE VEHICLES HESITATE WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH. CASE 1:14-CV-24728 -UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA MIAMI DIVISION

WHILE IN MOTION, VEHICLE GAS PEDAL CEASED ACCELERATING. IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER, COULD NO LONGER MOVE THE CAR FORWARD OR BACKWARD. CAR WAS COMPLETELY IMMOBILE AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO NEAREST MECHANIC. MECHANIC INDICATED THE TRANSMISSION HOSE WAS PART OF THE PROBLEM ALONG WITH A FAULTY A/C COMPRESSOR. SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V142000 CALLED NISSAN ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAID THEY REFUSE TO HONOR IT BECAUSE MY VIN SHOWS IT WAS MANUFACTURED AT A DIFFERENT PLANT THAN THE ONE SHOWN EXPERIENCING ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THERE WAS A LOUD ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWERED OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND THE ENGINE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND LATER TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RADIATOR FAN MOTOR ASSEMBLY FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,212.

VEHICLE RADIATOR COOLING FAN IS MAKING A VERY LOUD NOISE. AFTER SOME INVESTIGATION I'VE CONCLUDED THAT THERE IS A BAD BUSHING/BEARING IN 1 OF THE 2 FANS OF THE DUAL RADIATOR (DRIVERS SIDE). THE NOISE IS DUE TO THE FAN WOBBLING WHILE RUNNING UP TO 1/4 INCH OR SO. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS PART IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER WHICH TELLS ME THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE. I HAVE PRICED ONE AT A PARTS STORE AND WAS QUOTED ~$800. THIS ISSUE IF LEFT UNCHECKED NOT ONLY IS VERY NOISY, BUT COULD LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE DAMAGE AS THIS IS WHAT COOLS THE FLUID THAT COOLS THE ENGINE. I HAVE ALSO FOUND COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF OTHERS THAT HAVE THE SAME SPECIFIC ISSUE WITH THE SAME VEHICLE MODELS. THIS IS OCCURRING WHILE VEHICLE IS IN PARK IDLING AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.

IN PARK, MY GEAR SHIFT WILL NOT ENGAGE SO I CANNOT GET OUT OF PARK. THIS STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO. IN THE BEGINNING IT WOULD HAPPEN MAYBE ONE OR TWICE A WEEK. NOW ITS ABOUT EVERY OTHER TIME I GET IN MY VEHICLE. IT CAN TAKE ANYWHERE FROM 5 TO 15 MINUTES BEFORE I CAN GET IT OUT OF PARK AND IN GEAR

WAS SMOKING WHITE AND SHAKING NOW IT NEEDS A NEW ENGINE. BURNED OIL FAST

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED WHICH WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

I'VE PURCHASED THIS CAR 18 MONTHS AGO, AND JUST STARTED EXPERIENCING LOSS OF POWER AND JOLTING. IT'S LOSES POWER AND WON'T GO. IT JUST PUTS PUTS PUTS FOOT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO MY HOUSE. THE NEXT DAY IT STARTS UP I DRIVE IT TO NISSAN THEY SAID I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I PAYED 30,000 FOR THIS CAR AND 18 MONTHS LATER I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR THAT I STILL OWE 21,000 ON THE CAR. SO IT'S SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG, GOING ABOUT 40 MPH, WHEN SUDDENLY, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND I WAS FORCED TO COAST IT TO THE SHOULDER AND RESTART IT AGAIN. I HAD ABOUT 3/4 TANK OF GAS, SO THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. IT HAPPENED AT LEAST TWICE SINCE THEN AND WE HAD IT SERVICED ON YESTERDAY, BUT THE MECHANIC COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. HOWEVER, THIS LOSS OF POWER, ESPECIALLY ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THANK YOU *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, SMOKE STARTED TO EMIT FROM THE ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 13,000.

CAR WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND ACCELERATE AGAIN WAS JERKING OR HESITATING TO ACCELERATE. BROUGHT TO DEALER 3TIMES ALREADY AND SAID TORQUE CONVERTER IS THE PROBLEM.FOR THE LAST 2 VISITS TO CAR DEALER THEY JUST ADJUST IT. THIS TIME THEY ARE GOING TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. *TR

FYI...THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE ENGINE WILL JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. MANY TIMES BEFORE THIS I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SHUDDERING THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED NUMEROUS TIMES BUT WHEN THE CAR BEGINS TO LOSE POWER WITHOUT WARNING IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. MY FAMILY AND I HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY BLESSED THAT EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. THE ONLY THING THAT WORKS IS TO RESTART THE CAR. TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS HAVE DEALT WITH THE ISSUES AND BOTH HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THEY KNOW TO DO. THE TORQUE CONVERTER WAS REPLACED AND THE COMPUTER WAS REPLACED ALSO. WE PURCHASED THE CAR WITH APPROXIMATELY 22000 MILES SO THE LEMON LAW DOES NOT APPLY TO US. FOR THE 7 MONTHS THAT WE HAVE OWNED THE CAR, IT HAS BEEN AT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS HALF OF THE TIME. IT IS VERY FRIGHTENING THAT WE PURCHASED A "LIKE NEW" CAR AND NOW MY FAMILY AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN IT. *TR

I FILED A COMPLAINT YESTERDAY, AUGUST 27, 2014, ABOUT MY 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER CONFIRMATION NUMBER 10628699, AND FORGOT TO PUT ON THERE THAT THIS VEHICLE ALSO HESITATES TO GO AT TIMES AND WHEN IT DOES, IT HAS A TUGGING FEELING (THAT IS HOW I EXPLAIN IT). LIKE IT CAN'T FIND THE GEAR OR NOT ENOUGH GAS. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THIS TO MY OTHER COMPLAINT, PLEASE. VERY AMAZED TO SEE THAT THERE ARE OTHERS OUT THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS I HAVE AND THEY ARE ALSO NOT BEING REPAIRED. I FEEL I AM THE ONLY ONE OR THAT IS HOW THE SERVICE DEPT. AT THE DEALER MAKES ME FEEL. *TR

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 13,000.

AT 20MPH CAR STUTTERS/CHOKES AS IF IT WILL SHUT OFF. *TR

ABOUT 4 HOURS INTO OUR RETURN TRIP ON FRIDAY, MARCH 29, I WAS DRIVING ON I295 AROUND THE CITY OF RICHMOND, VA. WE WERE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TRAVELLING ABOUT 75 MPH WHEN OUR CAR BACKFIRED. MY WIFE AND I LOOKED AT EACH OTHER, AND NOTHING SEEMED TO HAPPEN TO THE CAR. SO WE CONTINUED DRIVING THINKING THE BACKFIRE WAS A NOISE FROM A SOURCE OTHER THAN OUR CAR. HOWEVER, WHEN I BRAKED SHORTLY THEREAFTER BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC BUILDUP THE CAR STALLED AT 40 MPH. I WAS STUNNED BUT QUICKLY RESPONDED BY RESTARTING THE CAR. FROM THAT POINT ON THE CAR REPEATEDLY STALLED EACH TIME WE BRAKED AND/OR REDUCED SPEED. *JS

IT WAS TIME FOR A OIL CHANGE AND I WAS WONDERING WHY WAS IT WHEN YOU PULL OFF THE CAR STUTTERS COME TO FIND OUT IT NEEDED A TRANSMISSION AND WHEN THE GUY TOLD ME HE EVEN SAID THEY HAVE HAD LOTS OF THEM LIKE THAT SO WHY WOULD YOU KEEP SELLING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD EXHBIT AN ABNORMAL WHISTLING WHEN INITIALLY STARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN DECEMBER OF 2012. IN LESS THAN 12 MONTHS, I HAVE LOST COMPLETE CONFIDENCE IN THE MANUFACTURING OF THE VEHICLE AND ITS ABILITY AS A RELIABLE, SAFE AND ACCEPTABLE OPTION TO MEET THE NEEDS OF ME AND MY FAMILY. THE DETAILS OF EACH INCIDENT TO DATE ARE LISTED BELOW. THE VEHICLE IS NOW UNDER REVIEW FOR REPURCHASE BY THE CORPORATION, AND WILL SIT IN THE DEALERSHIP'S PARKING LOT UNTIL A RESOLUTION IS REACHED THAT MAINTAINS MY SAFETY. 12/13 - 10 MILES - PURCHASED. 5/29/13 - 9,874 MILES - DROPPED OFF FOR SERVICE, EXPERIENCING 'SHUDDER' WHEN ACCELERATING AFTER COASTING, ISSUE OCCURRED AT VARIOUS OF DRIVING BETWEEN SPEEDS OF 25-40MPH AND 1000-1500RPM. DEALER UNABLE TO REPLICATE ISSUE, CAR RETURNED. 7/16/13 - 12,645 MILES - DROPPED OFF FOR SAME ISSUE, ABLE TO DUPLICATE, REPLACED TORQUE CONVERTER PER BULLETIN NTB13-064A. 7/19/13 - 12,655 MILES - CAR RETURNED FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WHEEL NOISE.

DEALER UNABLE TO REPLICATE ISSUE, CASE OPENED FOR POTENTIAL REPURCHASE. *TR

EVERYTHING TIME I DRIVE ON THE HWY OVER 55MPH THE HOOD OF THE ENGINE SEEMS LIKE IT WANTS TO COME OFF. IT SHAKES SO MUCH THAT IT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. THE DEALER CHECK AND SAID THIS IS NORMAL FOR SUV'S. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER OR MECHANIC FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,000.

AS I EASED OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND COASTED THROUGH A TURN, THE AUTOMOBILE JERKED FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 TO 10 SECONDS AND THEN RETURNED TO NORMAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THREE OCCASIONS. MOST RECENTLY, ON SEPTEMBER 2ND, IN ROUTE HOME ( EXITING A CAMPSITE) OUR AUTOMOBILE JERKED AS I TOWED OUR A-LINER CAMPER OF APPROXIMATELY 1400 LBS. AGAIN, MY SPEED WAS UNDER 20 MPH. OUR AUTOMOBILE WAS TAKEN IN ONCE FOR THIS ISSUE; HOWEVER, SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOUND NO ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. *JB

DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED THE VEHICLE "SHUDDERS" AND DOES NOT HAVE MUCH POWER. IF I SPEED UP ITS OKAY, BUT ANYTIME I'M DRIVING SLOWLY IT DOES THE SAME THING. *TR

THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO VIBRATE OR ALMOST SEEMS LIKE ITS SLIPPING IF THAT MAKES SENSE IT HAPPENS WHEN I'M FIRST TAKING OFF AT LOW SPEEDS. *TR

HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 3 WEEKS. WIFE WAS RETURNING FROM PICKING OF PIZZA AND WAS 2 MILES FROM HOUSE - CALLED ME TO TELL ME THE CAR IS "DEAD". ARRIVED TO FIND FLUID ALL OVER STREET BEHIND AND BELOW VEHICLE. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THE NEXT DAY WAS TOLD THEY WOULD BE REPLACING THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION. WAS TOLD THAT THE HOSE FOR TRANSMISSION WAS MANUFACTURED A BIT TOO SMALL AND THEY HAVE BEEN "FALLING OFF" RESULTING IN A TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR BURN OUT. NOT HOW I WANTED TO BEGIN OWNERSHIP WITH A NISSAN... *TR
