Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 nissan murano sl. i was getting an oil change and noticed a discharge in my radiator overflow. i asked the guy to drain the radiator and reservoir and refill it with fresh antifreeze. the discharge returned and the car became disabled in a busy intersection, with no warning light prior. i had it towed to the dealer and they seemed to know exactly the issue. the transmission fluid had mixed with the radiator coolant?! they charged me $1265.76 and said it wasn't covered because i was beyond 36,000 miles. the radiator looks new and i just have to take their word for this, even though they can't show me the problem. since they were so quick to identify this problem, i have to think they are seeing it a lot and maybe this should be a recall. i took the old radiator with me and still have it. your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated. *nm
