What owners wrote
The coolant has mixed up with the transmission fluid, and it is having problems with shifting. I done some research online,and found out that this a major issue with nissan and they are not willing to fix this issue. It says that there a hose leak issue into the transmission. Now m car is sitting I n my driveway,dead.
I was driving my 2007 pathfinder with my 3 children in the back when the tires suddenly seemed to be slipping. I wasn't sure what was going on until I was on a big hill and car suddenly wouldn't go into gear. The transmission had blown on me, almost instantaneoulsy with little to no warning signs. The car started rolling backwards on the hill and luckily nobody was behind us. I hit the breaks and stopped the car.
