Not long after I got my 2013 Nissan Pathfinder (which had 8 miles on it when I got it), it started shaking the whole car when I was going 20-40 miles per hour, as well as going around corners. It only happened once in a week, then it started happening more and more. It feels like the car is going to stall. I finally drove 45 minutes to the dealership where we bought it and ended up with a rental so they could figure out what was wrong with it, since the car did it for the service tech. I find out the next day, that Nissan "knows about the problem and is working on it, but they don't have an answer now". I'm supposed to pick up my car, drive it around, and wait until they find a fix! Are they waiting for someone to be killed or seriously injured before they recall them?! It's awful to drive this car! How can something that costs $40,000 Horrible customer service on Nissan's part. Shame on you! These cars need to be recalled immediately!
Update from Dec 3, 2013: Ok, an update on my rolling trash can...The original Pathfinder that I got ended up in the shop for a little over a month (according to the law...A LEMON), when they finally replaced the one I had with a new car (without the same features as the first one) and GUESS WHAT...the new one did the same thing, but this time there was a "fix". They had the new car for another 3 weeks and supposedly fixed it. Well, the car now smells like antifreeze when it sits idle, acts weird when it's cold, still jerks occasionally and now THERE'S ANOTHER RECALL! This time it's for the antilock brakes! The dealership had been good to us, till now - they are not giving us a rental this time, so who knows what the heck we're going to do while they're "fixing" it again! I HATE, HATE, HATE NISSAN AND WILL NEVER GET ONE AGAIN! BIGGEST MISTAKE WE HAVE EVER MADE! We will be trading this stupid piece of garbage in as soon as we are able! To think, we bought the most expensive model, thinking that this would be a nice luxury and it has only brought us headaches! I wish I still had my 8 year old FORD EXPEDITION that had over 100,000 miles on it, THAT WE NEVER HAD ISSUES WITH! Shame on you, Nissan, you should be more grateful for the customers you have! I will never be happy until I get this trash out of my garage!
