All Power Train Complaints
The vehicle swings left to right when cruising at about any speed. When the vehicle is pulling it does not swing or sway, however once the vehicle has got up to a desired speed and you try to maintain a steady speed it starts a “death wobble” which nearly cannot hold it on correct side of the road. You have to increase speed or reduce speed dramatically to regain control of the vehicle.
VEHICLE SWAYS VERY BAD DURING MODERATE ACCELERATION AND STOP IF YOU PUSH THE BRAKE OR SPEED UP. FEELS REALLY DANGEROUS AND FOUND OTHERS WITH SAME VEHICLE AND SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE STRUTS WENT AT 52,000 MILES $800 TO REPLACE, EXHAUST MANIFOLD NEEDS TO BE REPLACED(WARRANTY). TODAY THE NEWS THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS JUST"WORN OUT " $235, THE REAR SUSPENSION LINCS WERE "WORN OUT" $350, THE INTAKE PINIUM(SP?) WAS LEAKING $660. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT NISSAN AND THEIR "WORN OUT" VEHICLES. IT'S NOT EVEN PAID FOR YET!

HAVE PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE IDLING. ENGINE REVS UP AND TACH STICKS FROM 1500-2000 RPM ALMOST CONSTANTLY. WHEN VEHICLE IS IN FIRST GEAR IT WILL STICK AND TAKE OFF BY IT SELF AND EVEN SPEED UP EVEN THOUGH IT IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. DEALER HAS SEEN TRUCK 4 TIMES NOW AND "CAN NOT" FIND THE PROBLEM. NON DEALER REPAIR DIAGNOSED THE VALVE IN ONE VISIT. ARE THERE REPORTS OF ANY OTHER NISSAN PATHFINDERS OR VEHICLES THAT ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM? IT'S DANGEROUS!!!!!!*AK
