I had my transmission fixed about a year ago. Now I find when Im
accelerating onto the freeway, it seems to be slipping (ie: will rev
extremely high but not accelerate).
Anyone know what the issue is and how much it?ll take to repair?
Thanks!!

It the fluid fill? If it is, I have some bad news for you...

I would check the fluid level first. It is normal, go to an auto parts and
buy a product called transmission medic. If that doesn't solve your problem,
you will have to replace or rebuild the tranny. I know a place where you can
get a rebuilt tranny with warranty for $895. Transmission shops charge in
excess of $2500 to do the job.

A transmission heat sensor that prevents Pathfinder from going into
overdrive could be the cause
