CarComplaints.com Notes: While there are fewer "radiator leaked into transmission" complaints for the 2008 model year, they are starting to pile up. Buyer beware.
Nissan has extended their radiator warranty on 2005-2010 Pathfinders to 8 years/80,000 miles. However the average mileage for transmission failure for earlier model years is 95,000 miles, which conveniently (for Nissan) is just past the limit of their extended warranty. Owners beware.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I was removing trash from the back of my Pathfinders at the local transfer station. I turned to go back into the rear of the vehicle for the remainder of the trash when I struck the side of the tail gate which had crept down to my eye level and I turned into it resulting in lots of bleeding and a trip to the er requiring 11 sutures on my lower forehead just above my eye. This is a dangerous situation and I'm concerned it could happen again but also could happen to one of my children. It does seem to be temperature related but that should have been considered in the design.
