| Automatic transmission holding 1st gear until 5000-6000 rpms. rides fine at highway speeds. dealer diagnosed problem with transmission requiring replacement, including new radiator & labor at a cost of $3,600. dealer failed to mention the tsbs associated with transmission problems. perhaps, addressing the issues outlined in the tsb would mitigate the problem i.e., a/t solenoid replacement procedure. nissan powertrain warranty is 5 year or 60k. auto has 52k original highway miles. contacted the manufacture to request liberal interpretation of warranty policy in light of the low mileage. *ak | |||
