Transmission Not Engage problems of the 2006 Nissan Pathfinder

Just after exiting freeway, vehicle's automatic transmission failed to engage in any forward gears. This caused forward movement to reduce to extremely slow motion. If this occurred while on the freeway, and if a driver panicked, not immediately moving off to the side, it could have caused an accident with potentially serious consequences. This problem is widely known and has been dealt with to a limited extent. Don't see a place on this complaint form to indicate what the problem is. Transmission was contaminated with coolant due to lower trans line in radiator's lower tank being ruptured. Radiator was also cross contaminated with transmission fluid. This common problem in certain model 2005 - 2007 Nissan's is not currently a recall (it should be), and the limited extended warranty in the Nissan settlement offers no reimbursement for vehicles having this problem with over 100,000 miles, as is the case with most of us. I hope you are aware of the several thousand people who have had this potentially dangerous problem over the years, and the thousands more who will continue to have this same problem in the years to come.

Wife was driving home from work. Was in middle lane of traffic stopped at red light. Tried to accelerate but transmission would not engage. Eventually transmission worked for a few seconds. Pulled off road. Inspected vehicle. All gears (including reverse) do not engage. Did some online research this evening and looks like this is a very common problem. Why has there not be a recall for this problem?.

Came to stop at light. Tried to accelerate and transmission was not engaging. Eventually was able to put car in 1st gear and transmission engaged. Was able to pull off road. Turned off vehicle and tried to engage any gear. Transmission totally gone.
