Premature wear on rear brakes and dealers tells there fine each time I’ve taken it in for service I don’t think they even test driven the car is shakes and vibrates when you brake at speeds higher than 30-40 mph. They advised me the battery needs replacing on the last service that it’s showing some sort of signs that needs to be replaced. The heated seats on the passenger side just stopped working all of a sudden. From what I can see online from forums and people complains these are common issues on this vehicle and they are pushed on the customer. I will see what can be covered under warranty but it seems only the seat issue would be covered. This needs to be addressed the brakes are too small and under powered for this size of a vehicle especially if you are towing. It appear they wear out...

Forward warning system dashboard light goes on and does not shut off. Module has been replaced at a cost of $2500 and this has not solved the problem. Light has gone off with a chime alarm and yellow triangle with an exclamation point too. We were told we needed to get it fixed as soon as possible for safety reasons. Unfortunately, Nissan dealer can't seem to fix the problem and we're afraid to drive the vehicle.

While driving on the interstate with my family, my 2023 Nissan Pathfinder suddenly began to fail (limp Mode), forcing me to pull onto the shoulder in a dangerous situation.I was in the farthest lane to the left, with no shoulder available. I had to cruise all the way across two lanes with NO acceleration, but my flashers and the grace of god. The issue appears related to the mass airflow sensor, which was already replaced six months ago. I’ve had repeated issues, and neither the dealership nor Nissan has resolved it. The dealership manager even told me rudely that he would unplug the mass air flow sensor and leave it up front for me to come pick it up, because of my attitude. I told him at the beginning of the call that I was frustrated, and it was nothing personally against him. I even asked what did I say...

When engaging in reverse, the back up camera screen will blank out consistently for about 1 second or longer, It will do this when the car is already engaged to go in reverse. This happens constantly, and for it to be a safety feature should be corrected.

Follow up to my prior complaint (NHTSA ID Number: 11568968). Sandy Sansing Nissan in Pensacola, Florida replaced the fuel pump and the front forward detection sensor. We also had to have the middle row, middle seatbelt replaced due the sensor not working. We have had the vehicle back for a week and the problems have continued, if not gotten worse. The vehicle has stalled out multiple times, 3 days in a row, nearly causing my wife and children to be rear-ended by a semi truck on 2 occasions. The issue is the vehicle gets to about 27 mph, revs up to 6K rpms, stops moving forward and begins to slow down (at 6K rpms), warning lights like the oil light kick on along with several other lights, and the vehicle stalls, forcing the driver to glide off the roadway. My wife took a photo of the dash as she was...

When we purchased this vehicle in June 2023, one of the first things I noticed, was an unusual switch on the steering wheel to allow, selecting and viewing all of the vehicle display information. This switch is located on the left side of the steering wheel. It is labeled OK meaning OK to display the selected menu item when you depress the OK button. The switch consists of a thumb wheel to go up or down on the menu selection, and then you depress the thumb wheel to engage the item selected. We’ve had the vehicle nine months and we were driving and my wife attempted to select something by rotating the thumb wheel and pushing OK button. The OK button got stuck in the down position disabling the ok button and preventing her from changing anything on the vehicle info screen. We consider being unable to access vehicle information...

I found my new 2023 Pathfinder at Kraft Nissan in Tallahassee, Fl but since I live in Ga I wanted to avoid paying taxes to transfer to Ga. I contacted Woody Folsom dealership in Vidalia, Ga who contacted Kraft and did a dealership trade. Woody Folsom dealership sales rep delivered to my home on [XXX]. On the same day as delivery, I drove the car to for about 30 mins and stopped at a red light. The auto stop feature was on - My car went from Drive to Neutral then OFF! I could not restart the car. I was in traffic with other vehicles who were blowing their horns at me. I did put on my flashers. I waited several minutes after attempting to start the car when it finally started again. The car went back to Vidalia to be serviced and I was told it was fixed and...

I bought my 2023 Pathfinder FWD brand new in September, 2023. First few days I bought it it would switch to neutral or cut off while sitting at a light. It is now December and the ac/heater when on full blast reduces to mild on it own, the remote start no longer sets car temp based on outside time, the light in car doesn't come on when open doors, if key is in car and car is own it will lock by itself, the radio will play 5 seconds then turn off and go to a different screen, at times the screen will go from screen to screen on its on and will randomly switch to manual when i am stopped at drive through or backing out and putting in drive. Very frustrated with my purchase.

Vehicle has auto stop/start. When at a red light and vehicle stops moving engine will shut off. When light goes green and foot is removed from break, vehicle starts up. Sometimes when starting back up it goes into neutral automatically. Other times the vehicle attempts to start. But shifts into neutral and shuts down completely. At this point you must manually restart the engine. This has created safety concerns for my family

While driving, the "AT" warning light came on, the vehicle was making a griding noise. Upon stopping for safety reasons, the vehicle would not engage into 'Park." Once turned off and back on, the vehicle would not engage into drive from park, then finally went into drive. In the next few minutes driving to work to get off the main road and to wait for AAA, the "AT" warning light was on again and the car was griniding gears and accelerating randomly. After arriving at my work, the vehicle would not engage into park again, had to shut it opff and turn it back on which then showed it in park. Was towed to the dealer who stated the shifter was malfunctioning and they replaced the shifter and cleared all codes. Peter's Nissan of Nashua stated that the vehicle tested fine now and was fine to drive.

The doors close securely with the keys inside. We had to call the police, since my 1-year-old baby was locked inside the vehicle and the app did not work for me.

Water spilled onto console because cup the Lid was not sealed properly. The shifter became inoperable. The components around the cup hold need to be protected from water damage. As this is a safety issue. ESPECIALLY if it causes the car to not shift into gear? What if the spill happened at a stop light/intersection/railroad crossing for goodness sakes. And you can't freaking MOVE the car. (See my previous pictured post from another person). This smells of lawsuit in the "just right but HORRIFIC circumstances"
