CarComplaints.com Notes: In a very limited selection on small pickup trucks, the Frontier is one of the best options except -- and I cannot emphasize this enough -- for one problem that makes it an avoid-at-all-costs pain in you know what: the radiator ruptures and leaks coolant into the transmission, killing it. Such a buzzkill.

This problem affects most 2005-2008 (and maybe beyond) Frontiers.

The heater would blow cold air while idling, radiator flushed and filled, fixed the problem temporarily! Has happened since. Service technician said there was "an air bubble" causing water not to circulate... I say BS, I think all of the radiators have issues!
