Description of the problem | Tl* the contact owns a 2013 nissan pathfinder. While driving 65 mph, the vehicle decelerated, the air conditioning did not work, and the transmission failed. Also, the vehicle shook while driving and all the warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact turned the air conditioning off and placed the vehicle in neutral. When the contact restarted the engine, the vehicle was able to drive normally. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 81,000. Consumer stated no. I had no idea about the defect until it was brought to my attention after asking a dealership what was going on and they advised me to check for recalls on the model and year for my vehicle. My concern is that i could be on the freeway and the transmission goes out with my grandchildren which i have adopted and someone not paying attention hits and kills us or/ and someone else. Thanks for at least listening. I bought the vehicle to have enough room to abide with the law and now, i was taken advantage of. *jb |
