2022 Nissan Pathfinder Brakes Problems

Your Pathfinder's brakes are wearing out much faster than normal—you've already replaced them twice and are on your third set at just 65,000 miles, with only 6,000 miles on the current set. You're experiencing a dragging sensation where the brakes feel like they aren't fully releasing, which makes stopping take longer than it should. This issue may involve the brake calipers, brake pads, or rotors, and you'll likely need a brake system inspection and replacement of worn components.

Your rear brakes are wearing out much faster than expected, and you're hearing grinding noises without any warning light on your dashboard. The dealer says this is normal for your vehicle, but you're concerned because brakes shouldn't fail this quickly under normal driving conditions. The fix will likely involve replacing the rear brake pads and possibly having the rotors inspected or resurfaced.

Your rear brakes are wearing out much faster than normal—you've had to replace them 4 times by 44,000 miles, compared to lasting around 41,000 miles on your previous 2015 Pathfinder. Nissan has covered some replacement costs, and the last service included replacing both the brake pads and rotors. The rear brake system may be undersized for your vehicle, causing premature wear.

Your 2022 Pathfinder is making a high-pitched squeaking noise when you reverse, even though it only has about 20,000 miles. Other owners report being told their rear brake pads are worn down to metal while the front brakes are fine, suggesting a brake system defect that's causing uneven wear.

Your brake pads are wearing out much faster than normal, requiring frequent replacements, and your rotors are warping. This excessive wear is happening repeatedly despite multiple service visits. The brake system may need inspection to identify the underlying cause, which could involve replacing brake pads and rotors, and potentially diagnosing issues with brake caliper alignment or hydraulic pressure.

Front brake calipers get hot and started smoking. During simple highway travel No hard bracing and cruise control set. I’m not sure if the issue is with the two front calipers themselves or with the master cylinder or some other components that would cause both front brake calipers do this at the same time!

The rear brake pads as well as the rear brake caliber on these model vehicles and brakes keeps going bad extremely fast. This car is only 2 1/2 years old and I’ve already had to spend $1100 on parts for brake calibers. It is a known fact that the manufacturer Does not have the parts in stock. They are back order for 2 to 3 weeks. This is extreme safety issue and can prevent for cars from operating and stopping safely it’s smoothly I’ve had to replace my rear brake pad four times within a year.

At 42,000 my rear breaks failed. Needing to replace all components of my rear breaks. Now there is a national back order on parts which shouldn’t be a problem for this new of a vehicle.

the car is burning through brakes first brakes was repaired under warranty from nissan at 15k miles now the car needed

Rear brakes on Nissan Pathfinder are wearing unusually fast resulting in brakes failing and vehicle failing to stop. I have now had to pay to replace the rear brakes twice in less than 30k miles. Brakes should last 30-50k miles. Also I have not had to replace the front brakes once yet.

It appears the rear brake pads degrade over a short amount of usage. My vehicle currently has approximately 28,000 miles and I have had to replace the rear pads twice. Once at 13k miles and another at 27,500 miles. Car vibrates violently upon heavy braking. This seems to be a known issue with the manufacturer; however, no recalls have been issued.

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that while the vehicle was at the dealer for a service appointment, the contact was informed that the rear brakes needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that when the front brakes were applied, the rear brakes constantly made contact with the front brakes which caused the rear brakes to wear down, unusually faster. Additionally, the contact stated that the dealer agreed that the failure was due to a manufacturer defect within the design of the vehicle. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the repair fee for the rear brake replacement was refunded. The failure mileage was approximately 30,517. The VIN was unavailable.

Rear brakes prematurely failing via severely increased wear in the the 20k mile range. Confirmed by two dealers.

Collision avoidance system engaged without warning forcibly stopping vehicle in the middle of highway traffic with no obstructions in front of vehicle. Rear Brake pads also wearing out at less than 30k miles. Pads went from 7mm to 2mm thickness between 5k mile oil change intervals. This lead to extreme rotor damage and replacement of rotors and pads.

Upon routine service at 15,393 miles I was told that my rear brakes and rotors needed replacement. The service advisor stated that they are at a 2 and failed the multi-point inspection. I brought the vehicle to an independent shop and they confirmed the rear brakes needed immediate replacement. Upon further research, this seems to be a pattern for the 2022 Pathfinder with many people needing to replace rear brakes at a very low mileage.

Car has 18500 miles and dealership told me the rear brake pads were at 4 mm. No driving issues. Just that they wore out very quickly. Had to have them replaced

My name is [XXX] and I have been a Nissan Consumer for over 10 years, and this is the second time I have had major issues with my breaks. Unfortunately, I did not send an email when the 1st occurrence happened but, in my brand, new Rouge around 2017, my front and back breaks went completely out and had to be replaced at 6 months, but I continued to patronize your company. This occurrence I am sending an email regarding my 2022 Nissan Pathfinder I purchased from Passport Nissan, Marlowe Heights. I called the consumer customer service number on 8/12 and was provided case # [XXX}. Nissan Consumer line says, oh, there is nothing we can do because your vehicle is not under warranty and there has not been a recall! I brought my truck in for an oil change and tire rotation (which is part of the extended warranty when I purchased my truck) on July 11, 2003, and was not informed that my brakes needed any attention. The week of 8/7/2023 I noticed my brakes were really loud when I went in reverse so I looked up when should a car/truck need new brakes seeing as though I have only had this vehicle for just a year in July. It should brake should not be needed for at least 30-60,000 miles, here I am at 12, 483 miles. I called the dealership and was informed this is likely wear and tear and that I would be responsible for the cost of new breaks if needed. I am baffled because the point of me leasing a new vehicle is an attempt to avoid major costs such as brake and engine concerns before my 3-year lease is up. Yes, I leased 3 years prior to this lease a year ago! I make an appointment and take my truck to Nissan of Marlow Heights and informed the worker of my concern and he immediately tells me, oh, it’s just a noise your bakes make early in the morning, my Toyota does the same thing in the mornings. I explained to him that it’s not just in the morning but when I go in reverse, and I demonstrated this concern and he was like, oh no that is not norm INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Premature front brake rotor failure casing a pulsating brake pedal and humming when applying brake pedal. Brake pedal feels to fade when first applying the brake pedal.
