Owner Complaints (4)
Your 2022 Nissan Pathfinder experienced a complete engine failure at 70,000 miles with severe engine knocking, even though no warning lights appeared beforehand and the vehicle was properly maintained with regular oil changes. This sudden failure could be dangerous if it happens while driving at highway speeds or in traffic. The repair required a full engine replacement costing over $8,000, which fell outside the manufacturer's warranty coverage. Addressing this issue may require a complete engine replacement or a thorough diagnostic inspection to determine the root cause of the failure.

vehicle shut down mid intersection turn. Had to be towed away to the dealership. 5 days later after having "issues" with diagnosing they said it has oil sludge and the engine seized due to this. The vehicle has been maintained and has less than 100,000 miles. I find this very concerning and believe there is an issue with the quality of the engine
The car showed engine check light and auto start error. I took it to the dealer (Nissan bertera Auburn) and the said one of the ground wires had corrosion and they had fixed issue. i paid for the fix. After driving for 2 miles error came back. Dealer asked me to drive back. When I got back they said technicians are done for the day and I should go to nearest dealer the following day. Car is 22675 miles and still under warranty
Transmission cannot go into neutral unless the engine is running... but what if car runs out of gas and the engine cannot run? Car ran out of gas and transmission could not go into neutral to be pushed out of the road. Very dangerous situation.
