2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL SEIZED CAUSING A MULTIPLE VEHICLE CRASH. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE NUMBER OF INJURIES WAS UNKNOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS A SHUDDER ANYWHERE BETWEEN 10-20 MPH AND ALSO HAS A LUGGING AROUND 50 MPH. MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REPLACED, REPROGRAMMED AND STILL HAS THE SAME ISSUES. *JS

APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, I BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER, NOTICING THAT IT "SHUDDERS" AND LOSES POWER WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STANDSTILL OR AT LOW SPEEDS. THIS TYPICALLY HAPPENS BETWEEN APPROXIMATELY 20 TO 40 MILES PER HOUR. THE SENSATION IS DESCRIBED AS BEING LIKE "DRIVING OVER A RUMBLE STRIP" AND THE POWER LOSS OCCURS FOR ABOUT THREE TO FIVE SECONDS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THROUGH A SOFTWARE UPDATE, NEW TORQUE CONVERTER AND EVEN A NEW TRANSMISSION. I DROPPED THE CAR OF THIS MORNING FOR THE FOURTH TIME BECAUSE THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO OCCUR AND THIS PROBLEM SUBSTANTIALLY IMPAIRS THE USE OF MY VEHICLE AND CREATES A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! MY WIFE AND I OWN A 2013 PATHFINDER AND IT ONLY HAS 13000 MILES AN IS ALREADY ON ITS SECOND TRANSMISSION! OUR CAR VIOLENTLY SHAKES AND SHUDDERS ON TAKE OFF AT APPROXIMATELY 15-20 MILE PER HOUR! WHY ISN'T THERE A DIRECT INVESTIGATION FOR THIS PROBLEM. WHY NOT WHEN THE MAJORITY OF THE COMPLAINTS HERE ARE FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM AND IT'S SO DANGEROUS WITH MY 6 MONTH OLD CHILD IN THE CAR. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. SAME PROBLEM WITH PATHFINDER'S EQUIVALENT, INFINITY EQUIVALENT JX35, WITH SAME TYPE TRANSMISSION. LOOK IT UP. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN PATHFINDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD SPUTTER AND DECELERATED SPORADICALLY WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 13,000.

WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE THE BACKUP CAMERA HAVE STATIC LINES AND THE IMAGE START ROLLING UP AND DOWN HAPPENED SOME TIMES NOT ALWAYS, I TOOK THE CAR TO SERVICE AND THEY DIDN'T REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS WORKING FINE, I EVEN TOOK A VIDEO AND GIVE THIS TO THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE NEEDS TO SEE IN PERSON AND IT WAS NO RECALL ON THIS EQUIPMENT. *TR

WHOLE FAMILY IS IN THE CAR AND I WAS DRIVING . WHILE WE ARE ENTERING TO HIGHWAY AND MERGING TO RIGHT LINE, SHUDDER HAPPENS AND WE LOOSE ALL ENGINE POWER , GAS PEDAL BECOMES USELESS AND ONLY THING I CAN DO WAS TO SLOW DOWN. IN THAT INSTANT WE ARE ALMOST REAR ENDED BY SEMI TRUCK. CVT TRANSMISSION PUT THE CAR INTO SHUDDER STATE. WE WERE NOT ABLE TO SPEED UP WHILE MERGING TO HIGHWAY FOR ALMOST 20 SECONDS. *TR

JUST PURCHASED THE CAR USED FROM A DEALER ON 6/19 WITH ONLY 5100 MILES ON IT. BY 6/22, BY NOTICED THAT THE CAR WILL SHUDDER OCCASIONALLY AFTER ACCELERATING, COASTING, AND THEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AGAIN. WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A TURN TO AN INTERCHANGE, THE CAR SHOOK AS IF GOING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS FOR ABOUT 4 SECONDS AND WASN'T ABLE TO ACHIEVE ACCELERATING POWER UNTIL SHAKING STOPPED. HAS OCCURRED ABOUT 7 TIMES OVER THE PAST DAY. VERY FRUSTRATED IN THE DEALER WHO NOW SAYS THE MANUFACTURER WILL COVER ANY DEFECTS. I FEEL THE DEALER KNOWINGLY PASSED THE PROBLEM ON TO ME. *TR

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

BOUGHT MY PATHFINDER IN AUGUST 2013 I LOVE IT!!! BUT NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN MY SON (119 POUNDS) SIT'S IN THE SEAT. THIS HAPPEN OFTEN. I PULL OVER ALL THE TIME TURN OFF THE SUV AND RESTART SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT GOES OFF. NISSAN FINALLY DID A RECALL ON IT BUT IT HAS NOT GONE AWAY. ALSO IT USED TO ILLUMINATE WHEN I SET MY DIAPER BAG ON IT WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BUT NOW AFTER THE RECALL "FIX" IT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN SOMETHING LIGHT WEIGHT IS SET ON IT. IT HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN AND I AM WORRIED THAT IT COULD POSSIBLY FAIL IF WE WERE TO GET INTO A COLLISION. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN SEVERAL TIMES TO CHECK IT BUT IT ALWAYS COMES UP AS WORKING PROPERLY. PLEASE FIND A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. THE OTHER ISSUE I HAVE FOUND IS WHEN ACCELERATING THERE IS SOME KIND OF TUGGING/PULLING/LAGGING FEELING AS IF IT DOES NOT WANT TO PICK UP SPEED. IT DOES HOWEVER PICK UP SPEED BUT THE "TUGGING" FEELS AS IF THE SUV IS GOING TO STALL OUT. WHAT IT THIS??? *TR
