I was at a stop leaving an apartment complex. I entered a busy road and when I pressed the accelerator, the RPM's rose but the vehicle would not accelerate. I had to take my foot off the gas and then hit the gas again before it started to pick-up speed. This has happened on multiple occasions.

1. front end shutters due to cvt transmission problem, Nissan meta replaced transmission torque convertor but that did not fixed problem. 2. both rear tail gate decals were put on at a slight angle. Meta Nissan replaced them both, the Nissan decal and the Pathfinder wording. 3. then top roof plastic molding rubber grommet came loose. The Nissan dealer ordered parts, but since they were on shortage they have not come in yet. 4. mpg and mph display is off. From my point of view it looks like a software issue with program. Mph should change dynamically as speed of vehicle change. That is not the case on this car. 5. front doors are incredibly heavy, why? when the doors are half the way open they immediately shut and cannot stay open. Often the doors shut while we are trying to get in the vehicle. 6. passenger seat air bag sensor stays one when someone in seat. 7. front brake noise.

Driving from cocoa, Florida to virgina, the car kept jerking. It felt like when the engine got hot it was jerking more and worse. By the time we reached the South of the border (North Carolina and South Carolina) the transmission shut down and the car couldn't move (in the middle on I-95). We were lucky there were no cars behind us otherwise there would be a pile of car behind us.

Intermittent shudders as if I was driving on a rumble strip and loss of power after an hour of drive.

- Kennesaw, GA, USA

The transmission seems to slip or stutter or shake at low speeds. We notice it when making turns into parking lots or starting off at intersections or entering or exiting cloverleaf loop ramps at intersections. It is an intermittent problem. Sometimes it stutters and shakes harder than at other times. We first noticed it only a couple of weeks after we bought it.

Vehicle is rumbling or shaking at slow speed. It had happened a few times before but seems to get worse recently and was very noticeable when I was driving up/down at the airport parking garage and having to maintain slow speed. It also happened from time to time while on slow speed but happened most of the time while making turns. It last a few seconds and during that time it was as if the car was riding on very rough continuous surface (like driving on the warning strip to slow speed at the toll booths). I just took the vehicle to the dealer which the description on the invoice said "confirm vehicle surge at 30/33 mph PC1970 0.6 perform tcm reprogram and vehicle road test problem steel there. Reschedule; need to call tech line". the service adviser at the dealer asked me to keep driving if the problem is still there and it is. Less than a mile out of the dealer, while making turn at the traffic light, the noticeable rumbling happened again. I am rescheduling this for service. I hope it is fixed before our road trip.

I have become aware of two different issues with my 2013 Pathfinder. First, and most important, is an issue with the passenger airbag. The light that illuminates to inform you if the passenger airbag is on or off will come on or off intermittently with the same person/object in the passenger seat. This has occurred on 4 separate occasions. It happened twice with myself riding in the passenger seat, once with my son, and once with a backpack. The passenger airbag light would be off, indicating the airbag was on, and then after several miles the light would come on. Or the light would be on and after several miles it would go off. This is a safety issue and could cause death if in an accident! I took the vehicle to my local dealership where it was put on the computer, which showed everything was fine. They also drove the vehicle 20 miles to see if they could get it to happen and it did not. Mine was not one of the models on the recall list for this very same issue. They told me to bring it back if it happens again, but I am afraid to drive it. We are a family of seven, so someone has to sit in the passenger seat. The second issue is a shuddering that occurs when decelerating or accelerating at lower speeds. It has happened several times causing me to take my eyes off the road and look at the instrument panel to see if something is wrong. The vehicle is sluggish when this happens. I am worried that it will happen turning into traffic and cause an accident.

As you decelerate from 50 -55 mph and slow down to 40 mph, the vehicle begins to "shudder", similar to driving over rumble strips that are typically found along highways that alert drivers that they are moving onto the shoulder. After 4-5 seconds, the shudder stops and the vehicle drives normally. Reading on the internet, this appears to be occurring with a number of vehicles and may result in transmission failure over time.

- Branchburg, NJ, USA

Transmission shudder and loosing power for a brief moment on accelerating around 20-30 mph. It feels as if driving on rough surface. It is progressively getting worse.

- Clifton Park, NY, USA

We purchased vehicle with 9 miles on odometer. After driving from billings mt to riverton wy, approximately 4 hours, we noticed what we thought was a slight shutter, vehicle failed to accelerate. Now, when the vehicle reached approximately 800 miles, it now has 1100 miles, the vehicle has done this approximately 20 times. The problem is progressively getting worse and more frequent, and having two kids, a 8 year old and 6 month old, we are kinda scared to drive the vehicle. The computer screen also shown 3 times, has said, key failed to sync.

When I had my new car for only two weeks, while driving on side streets, I started to hear rumbling like I was going over rough road or a warning strip at random times when I accelerated. Then it also happened when I tried to accelerate on the parkway. When I called the dealership, they stated that they had no idea what I was talking about. Told me to bring the car in a week later when they had a loaner car available. I took it on june12th, and they still stated they did not know what the problem was. I started to research and found out that this is a common transmission problem in the 2013 Pathfinders.when I told them I knew this was a common transmission problem, the dealer is still stating they know nothing about it, but now want to replace my torque converter when they get the part that is currently not available. I called Nissan and have asked for a refund of my money. I do not want a brand new car with transmission problems! I can't use it to tow my boat and am afraid to go any long distances. They still have not called me back. How can they continue to sell this car when there are nationwide problems with this transmission?
