    The beginning of April I took my 2011 Nissan Morano to a nissan dealership. Vehicle was overheating. Per Nissan a new engine is needed. Called Aamco around 4/19/23 spoke with ****** ***** gave a quote of $4,500 for a used engine with around 70,000 miles and install, I agreed. On 4/25 received a call from **** at Aamco asking what the car was doing. Explained the car was overheating, per Nissan oil is mixing with antifreeze, there is sweet smell coming from the exhaust. Informed ****, Nissan says to replace the engine. **** said they are running test will give me a call back. **** called back around 4:46p stating, no contamination of oil in the antifreeze, pressure test was done. **** told me a new engine wasn't needed but there is coolant sipping out. I told **** Nissan done work on the coolant system. Per **** "this car runs great, my mechanic drove it hard and it didn't overheat". **** said Nissan must have been lazy and just didn't want to deal with it. Picked the car up on 4/28, took the car back on 4/29 check engine light was when picked up. ***** said it was a miscellaneous code and turned it off. Around 5/4/23 the vehicle overheated. I took the car back to Aamco. Was told i need a new engine. 5/30 engine was replaced with a engine with around 130,000 miles. Took car back around 6/13 due to antifreeze leaking(replaced old clamps on hose performed pressure test). Car continued to leak not antifreeze. Informed **** at 3:46pm on 6/30/23 the car is leaking oil or transmission fluid was told to bring the car back. Called **** back at 4:02p informed him the vehicle stopped, drive or reverse will not engage. Had car towed back. Was told oil was leaking and I need a new transmission. **** said he fixed the oil leak but didn't cause the transmission to go out. Had car towed, still leaking.
