I have had so many problems with my vehicle. I have spend so much on auto repair. Latest one I took in to a local mechanic and he diagnosed it with transmission issue with a timer. It-??s hard to go from 30 to 40mph. He also looked it up and said there-??s a recall. I called my local Nissan dealer and was told my vehicle is not under the recall. Every dealers being asking me if I have transmission issues and I finally said yes trying to trade my vehicle. They mentioned Nissan has transmission issues.

Nissan is disconnecting service for Nissan Connect Service. This disables the SOS connect function. This could result in a sever crash not being reported that could complicate or hinder occupant(s)injuries. Also, it affects I-Key functions and other various data functions. Nissan Support claims it would not be a problem and the dealership, Tristate Nissan-Winchester VA 22602, stated there is nothing that can be done. Supposedly it is due to the loss of 3G telecommunications service. Other Automotive manufacturers are facing the same issue except they are are offering reprogramming to correct the issue, Honda for example.

When hitting any imperfections in the road, the Pathfinder will lose traction and steering. On the highway it is most dangerous, online it is called "the death sway" and is a known issue to consumers in the Pathfinder and Infiniti Qx80. Forums identify Bushing and bushing arms as the likely culprit. I have never been more afraid to drive a vehicle and have had others drive my vehicle to verify the issue is not caused by my driving. I contacted Nissan twice and they have informed me both times that there isn't anything they can do about

Reading forums and doing research has brought me to the conclusion that nisan is buying and has been buying faulty radiator fans for years. My wife does nothing but drive to and from work, averaging around 10K miles a year on her Pathfinder under normal driving conditions and we are being asked to replace a fan that has mysteriously just started making all kinds of noise. Not only is this a problem but it's causing consumers to spend upwards of $1000 to replace this. I have recently found a Pathfinder forum with well over 450 results related to this particular item only. Obviously, this is not covered under normal drive train warranty so this is coming out of consumer pockets. This isn't fair to me or anyone else that I have spoken to. Why would this fan just go out for no reason other than it's a faulty fan with poor workmanship associated with the product. Nissan dealerships are making a killing, $400 to $600 just in labor with all of these problems. If you all go to pathfindertalk.com and search radiator fan, you will find all of the problems associated with the fans. It's faulty, it's dangerous and should be Nissan should have to flip the bill for this in the future and maybe they will think about this before they decide to buy cheap materials again.

Loud noise started when engine was turned on and on idle. Was told that it was the radiator blade hitting something. What or why this happened the local dealer has no clue or explanation other then "it just happens on some Nissan" the cost to replace the radiator fan and shroud is about us$1000 on a car that is 39 mths old! seems this happens to enough Nissan that the dealer has seen it various times.

Ac/ fan makes loud noise when turned on unable to use because noise is so bad- need to replace cooling fan- needs to be covered by Nissan as this is clearly a defect

Ac fan makes loud sound when heating or cooling is turned on. First started when fan was set to max only, now the noise is occurring even when fan is set to low.

The vehicle cranks up by itself after the doors are locked and the back up camera does not turn off when the gear is put back in drive. I have a couple of videos but can't attach on here.

Cooling fan on most Nissan Pathfinder SUV's (models 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019) seems to be going bad around 36,000 miles. There has been a widespread complaint about this from other Pathfinder customers. Some customers even reported having to replace the cooling fan twice in less than 60,000 miles. Surprisingly this hasn't been recalled yet or Nissan hasn't done anything about it. The engine cooling fan assembly failed at 36,000 miles (right when warranty expires) and it sounded like rapid fire going off in the front grill. After driving a while you can smell as if something is burning under the hood and the burning smell makes it inside the passenger compartment. You cannot drive the car for too long before the burning smell starts bothering you and giving you headaches. Once the cooling fan goes bad, it also spills some short of liquid in the engine compartment which can cause the burning smell to still be around for 1-2 week even after getting the cooling fan replaced. When I took the car to Nissan service center, the lady there knew exactly what the issue was without even opening the hood. She said "yes your cooling fan has gone bad and will need replacing, we had several of these with the same issue" I mentioned to the dealership that this was a widespread issue, but they didn't do much about it. They referred me to their regional office, which I contacted and they said they aren't able to do anything unless a recall has been issues by NHTSA. Other complaints can be located on:

My Nissan Pathfinder 2017 S has 38K miles and started noise on engine/ac cooling fan. It sounds like fan bearing is making noise. I think this is a manufacturing defect.

Many drivers who has a 2015-2017 Nissan Pathfinder has been having an issue with the cooling fan assembly going out around 45K miles. Nissan dealerships are saying this is a typical issues because of the type of fans that are orginally installed. I think it is horrible to make an consumer pay $900 for a manufacturing issue that causes the car to shake and rattle badly while making a very loud while the A/C is on and gets worse when the vehicle is idle whether the A/C is on or not. Nothing about that sounds safe or fair. I live in Mississippi where the temperature is very high and shouldn't have to drive in horrible condition due to am engineer default.

The vehicle was recalled. The recalled parts were supposedly fixed. The vehicle blew up on January 25th 2019 the same day is what picked up from the dealership after being "repaired."

Loud knocking noice coming from engine, after research and dealer checkup it appears to be a very common problem for these 2014-2018 Pathfinders. The problem typically occurs around 50-60K miles which is outside of the manufactures warranty. Mine began around 50K, anytime my engine gets hot and both fans kick on the cooling fan assembly starts violently vibrating (I have video with sound). The only way to stop the vibrating is to turn off the A/C which in our Texas summer heat reaching over 100 degrees is unrealistic considering I use this as a family vehicle. If you look at all of the complaints reported you and do a simple google search you will see this is a very common problem and Nissan is fully aware of it and in my opinion should be liable for installing a faulty fan. I was quoted $950 to replace the bad cooling fan assembly part by the dealership. It is my sincere hopes that a full investigation is done and a recall is issued for the number one complaint with this vehicle.
