CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2005-2007 Xterra appears to have a widespread defect where coolant leaks into the transmission, causing transmission failure around 90,000 miles. Repair costs are typically upwards of $3,500.
The same defect exists in the Pathfinder & Frontier as well. And according to the New York Times & a class action lawsuit, the defect actually extends through 2010 model year. More info here.
Damn stereo ate a CD and now makes loud noises like a toaster being violated. Sometimes plays music, but it would be nice to actually change the damn CD. Happened about a year after getting it used from the dealer. Yay. Fun to add to the list with radiator/transmission/warning lights/abs brakes/4wd failure.
