Nissan Pathfinder Problems by year

check). The dealership keeps referencing a 2015 Nissan service bulletin (NTB14-057a) to dismiss the coolant crusting around the Bank 2 head area and missing coolant as a known, normal condition, even though that bulletin is not specific to the 2023 Pathfinder and explicitly requires technicians (Page 1, Item 3) to investigate measurable fluid loss. Despite documented milky oil and an empty reservoir, they refuse to perform further diagnostics.

was contacted and consulted with the manufacturer. The dealer duplicated the failure and replaced the driver's side exterior mirror; however, the replacement mirror failed to resolve the failure. The dealer informed the contact that the failure could not be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 60.

was told that the car could not be fixed and would likely be out of service or weeks or months because the necessary part was on backorder. I was not provided a replacement Nissan Pathfinder. I asked for any car with a third row and was refused. When the car part still had no ETA after three weeks, I placed a complaint with Nissan Consumer Affairs. I referenced the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act, a federal law which provides that manufacturers must offer a buyback to the consumer if the car cannot be reasonably repaired pursuant to the warranty. This defect is undisputedly covered by the bumper to bumper warranty. I was initially refused a buyback because Nissan explained that 3 weeks without the car is no yet unreasonable. I was promised further review and resolution if the part was still not available by [[redacted]]. Then on [[redacted]], the arbitration specialist emailed me that she may have an update on when the part could be available on [[redacted]]. I reminded her of her initial promise of the [[redacted]] deadline. She refused to answer. I called several times and left messages asking for a call back by [[redacted]] as promised. I was refused a call back. I asked to be escalated to a supervisor and was further refused. I believe that depriving me of the car in unreasonable, and expecting me to drive it with an unsafe airbag defect is a safety hazard. By failing to address the safety concern timely and failing to buyback the defective vehicle, Nissan is endorsing the driving of the car.

cold starts. At times, the vehicle feels as though it may stall, and the engine RPMs fluctuate while the air conditioning begins blowing warm air. Additionally, the vehicle has displayed a collision warning system malfunction, experienced an unexpected battery failure, and required strut replacement. Motor mount concerns have also been identified. Despite repeated dealership visits, several issues remain unresolved. The dealership has repeatedly stated that certain problems could not be duplicated, even though I have video evidence documenting some of the symptoms. I am concerned about the possibility of unexpected power loss, mechanical failure, and malfunctioning collision safety systems, particularly while transporting my children. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate these potential safety defects and determine whether other 2025 Nissan Pathfinder owners are experiencing similar issues.
