Is this a problem Nissan knows about and has taken responsibility for? Any idea what percentage of 2006 pathfinders meet this fate?

Good info, thanks....have not heard about the radiator transmission cooler leak. We bought this pathfinder new in '06. Have had several issues over the years but not that.

It occurs whenever I turn the key on and whenever I push the air recirc button. Well, the part is about $50 but the labor at Nissan is $432 for a four hour job. I'm ass...
