First of all i definitely will never ever buy a nissan vehicle again. Especially the nissan dealer in temple tx. I was not told this vehicle had so many issues, my transmission broke had to fix that which I ended up paying 3,368.04 and now two years after fixing it I had to fix the radiator and my engine service light is still on.

radiator failed causing transmission failure. Vehicle quit pulling in rush hour traffic so I had it towed to repair shop. Transmission was full of coolant which turned transmission fluid into milky substance.

We found out about the radiator and transmission problem when the Xterra broke down on the highway at 69,000 miles. The service department at Sullivan Brothers Nissan in Kingston MA tried to tell us all that was needed was to have the radiator and transmission flushed but we already knew about the problem and contacted Nissan recall division. They told us we were entitled to have the transmission and radiator replaced. We had to demand this from Sullivan Brothers and they unwillingly agreed to replace for free.
Now the new transmission just broke at 153,900 miles and there is nothing we can do except pay to have it fixed or junk the car as the new transmission was only warrantied for 1year/12000 miles. This is a complete SHAM and Nissan is a horrible company that does not stand behind their products. I will NEVER buy another Nissan and am going to tell every person that will listen to never buy Nissan products. Hopefully if anyone who reads this tells everyone they know not to buy Nissan products they will go bankrupt and never make another car again,,,,kind of like Datsun (which is actually now Nissan) who had the same crap products so needed to change their name. They haven't changed their business practices and it is the consumer who suffers.

I had a transmission fail at 100,000 miles after taking it into the dealer several times after experiencing transmission issues, they said they could not find anything. Soon after the transmission went out and cost me $5,000 to replace. WITHIN 50,000 miles the newly replaced transmission went OUT!
