2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER Complaints

I GOT A NISSAN PATHFINDER PLATINUM 2013, WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT 40 MPH, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IT STOPPED ACCELERATING FOR A GOOD 5 TO 15 SECONDS, EVEN THU I PRESSED THE GAS MEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THAT HAPPENED VERY OFTEN NOW. I TOOK IT TO THE SUTHERLAND NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN FORT MYERS , FLORIDA, THEY WERE TELLING IT COULD BE THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I ENCOURAGE EVERYBODY WHO HAS THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR NISSAN VEHICLE TO COME FORWARD AND COMPLAINED. THAT CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND THAT DIRECTLY PUT PEOPLE LIFE IN GREAT DANGER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH AN AVERAGE SIZE ADULT SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND INDICATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS DEACTIVATED AND WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS RESET; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WHEN PASSENGER IN EXCESS OF 120LBS IS SEATED IN SEAT. LIGHT RANDOMLY COMES ON AND GOES OFF EVEN THOUGH PASSENGER IS SEATED PROPERLY. HAVE REPORTED THIS TO NISSAN REPEATEDLY AND THEY INDICATE AIRBAG SENSOR IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT WAS UNABLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO HESITATE EXCESSIVELY IN A JERKING MOTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTERIZED SYSTEM WAS REPROGRAMMED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AFTER THE REPAIR. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO OPERATE WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

THE LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WOULD NOT GO OFF, AND ENGINE WOULD BE SURGING AND THE CAR WOULD SHAKE, EVEN IF THE CAR WAS ON CRUSE CONTROL MODE AND SPECIALLY GOING UP HILL. WE TOOK IT TO A DEALER TWICE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM- "COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEY "UPDATED THE SOFTWARE" TO NO AVAIL. THEY SEND US TO THE COMPANY AND THEY DID NOT DO ANYTHING.

PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS NOT WORKING AGAIN. FIRST TIME FIXED BY NISSAN BASED ON RECALL ISSUED. ONCE AGAIN THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG LIGHT IS INDICATING THE PASSENGER SEAT IS NOT OCCUPIED WHEN IT IS BEING OCCUPIED. DO NOT KNOW IF AIRBAG IS WORKING OR NOT. THE VEHICLE IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AT 37,530 MILES. NISSAN HEADQUARTERS WAS NOT HELPFUL; TOLD ME TO TAKE BACK TO DEALER AND HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AT MY EXPENSE. TOLD TO CALL BACK AND ADVISE THEM OF RESULTS; THEY WOULD THEN TAKE IT UNDER ADVISEMENT!

I HAVE EXPERIENCED AN INCREASED IN BRAKE, EVERY TIME I HIT SLIGHTLY THE GAS PEDAL ON MY 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER PLATINUM..AND I WAS DRIVING AROUND 15 TO 20 MILES/HOUR, I DON'T KNOW WHY NISSAN HAS PUT IN THE MARKET A CAR WITH SO MANY BUGS.

MY PATHFINDER HAS ALREADY HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED ONCE AND IS STILL HAVING ISSUES. SINCE THIS PAST THURSDAY, IT HAS BEEN HESITATING OR FEELING LIKE IT IS IN NEUTRAL WHEN IT IS IN DRIVE. I TOOK NOTE OF THE LATEST ONE TODAY. I WAS STOPPED (ON A MAJOR STREET) WAITING FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO PASS. IT DID, AND I ACCELERATED TO TURN LEFT AND THE CAR FELT LIKE I HAD PUT IT IN NEUTRAL. IT WAS SLOWLY ROLLING BUT NOT ACCELERATING AS I CROSSED OVER THE ON-COMING LANE AND CONTINUED WITH MY LEFT TURN. I CHECK TO SEE IF IT WAS IN DRIVE (IT WAS) AND CHECKED THE SPEED (20MPH) BECAUSE I HAD BROUGHT IT IN LAST WEEK WHEN IT DID IT THE FIRST THREE TIMES, AND THEY ASKED ME WHAT SPEED I WAS GOING WHEN IT HAPPENED. THE TIME PRIOR TO THAT I WAS CHANGING LANES ON THE HIGHWAY (INFRONT OF A LARGE TRUCK) AT ABOUT 50 MPH AND WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE, I GOT THE SAME FEELING. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED! THE TIME PRIOR TO THAT, I HAD BEEN AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED, I CROSSED OVER THE FIRST SECTION OF THE RED LIGHT THEN TURNED LEFT AND ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE BUT IT (AGAIN) FELT LIKE I HAD THROWN IT INTO NEUTRAL. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR A SECOND TO LET OTHER CARS PASS IN CASE IT STALLED ON ME. THE FIRST TIME WAS JUST WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS HAS ME EXTREMELY SCARED AS IN TWO OF THE SITUATIONS, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED IF I COULDN'T ACCELERATE TO MOVE AND A CAR PLOWED INTO ME.

I HAD THAT NISSAN PATHFINDER PATINUM FOR A WEEK, I NOTICED IT SHUDDERING AND SHAKING WHEN I PRESS LIGHTLY ON THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE., ITS LIKE THE VEHICLES SHUTTING DOWN ON ME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SUTHERLIN NISSAN IN FORT-MYERS, FLORIDA AND I'M STILL WAITING ON THEM. FOR WHOEVER WHO HAS EXPERIENCED THIS KIND OF SHUDDERING PROBLEM, ITS A VERY SCARY AND FRIGHTENED MOMENT. NISSAN NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE.
