Complete shutdown of the vehicle while driving down the road. Caused me to go into a ditch. The vehicles lights flashed and then it just shut off. Had the alternator replaced twice also the battery replaced twice and now the nissan dealership has said they don't know what's wrong with it.

The relay in the drivers seat melted and the wires shorted out. This caused issues with my radio, clock, brakes, and power issues when accelerating. They replaced the relay which cost me $1200 and suddenly all of my systems work correctly. I was told the short was causing feedback into the electrical systems of the car by the service department. The dealer further confirmed there is an advisory on this issue and it has been noted several times. They stated the issue is ongoing but there is no recall.

The Power Liftgate Switch on the trunk is always having issues due to the chrome plate thats part of the body on the trunk. The chrome panel is easily weathered and rubber seal comes off and when in contact with water, water drains right onto the relay switch and causes burnt out relay, or blown fuses, and does not operate.

No warning lamps or error codes given on instrument cluster While driving normally the car suddenly would not accelerate almost causing an accident while turning left. The car was driven home on idle. This Happened 2 weeks prior and the battery was replaced to rule out problem and it worked fine for 2 weeks fine. The same problem occurred again and will not accelerate. This is a major safety hazard and I-??m looking into legal action for negligence and non helpful Nissan corporation

A component is draining my battery. 7/21 New battery installed by Dealer. I'm told that the alternator is good. 7/28 adjustment on brake/starter switch"?" Dealer wasn't clear. Said problem was fixed. 8/4 returned the SUV back to local dealer. Now I'm told that the Tow Bar was pulling 4 amps of energy and draining the battery, and that I should return the vehicle back to the place of purchased to have repaired. Our 2015 was purchase brand new with the Tow Bar as part of the accessary package. I have a Nissan Security Plus Extended Warranty. The Tech suggested that the Tow Bar may not have been Factory Installed. In the interim, I have been without transportation for 8 days.

Brake lights will stay on even when car is parked and not occupied.Skid control coms on when driving and engine power is reduced or in lymph node. Car can be put in drive without depressing the brake switch. Ok Nissan says this is not on recall by vin # but there is an active recall on this model now. Sounds like a good lawsuit to me.Thanks and hope you can help.

Electrical engine cooling fan failure assembly. Loud grinding noise on driver side fan which is an assembly of two fans in one unit. Widely available information on web points to wheel bearing failure inside the fan.

The car suddenly started stalling on the highway and would not accelerate and stuck at the same speed. The check engine light came on. This happened a few times where the car would stall and the acceleration would not work on local roads as well as the interstate thus considerably slowing the speed of the traffic upon getting it inspected at the dealership, they found the crankshaft sensor was faulty.

At random times, when the rear, power, lift gate is opened, it reaches the point of being fully opened, and then closes on it's own. This creates a significant safety hazard because if you are reaching into the rear cargo area, the lift gate comes down on your head, neck, or back. This has been a problem since the car was purchased new in 2015 but nothing has been done by a dealer because the problem is random. This happens when the vehicle is parked. There does not appear to be any reason for this defect. Upon doing an internet search, this issue has been reported in various forums by multiple other parties, beginning around 2014. The first time I was hit by the lift gate which closed on it's own was in May 2020

The vehicle makes a lot of noise when the ac or heat is turned on. Seems to originate from the cooling fans. When the ac or heat is turned off the sound goes off too. It's very loud seems like the fans are going off. Makes the noise whether moving or still as long as the ac or heat is on.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder. While driving, the vehicle suddenly failed to accelerate; however, the vehicle operated normally while in reverse. After recharging the battery, the vehicle operated normally for several minutes before the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to keating Nissan (333 interstate 45 South, conroe, tx) where it was diagnosed that the alternator was faulty. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided case number: 37487331. The failure mileage was 120,000. The VIN was unknown.

At random, little to no acceleration at initial take off and/or while driving in traffic on a highway or street even if pressing gas pedal to floor. Vehicle will start without pressing brake. Brake light remains on after car is turned off. I've had catalytic converter and brake work done to correct the problem to no avail. Also, I wanted to check speed control as a affected part but it wouldn't select.

I've been experiencing problems with my vehicle stalling out. I took it to Nissan on numerous occasions and no problem could've been found until the last time. They informed me that the brakes would come on automatically. They believe it was a sensor problem, however, the problem still happens all the time.

Vehicle began issues with no acceleration after coming off of the brakes. Has to double tap brakes to get vehicle to continue to drive. Then it progressed into the tail lights would not shut off after the vehicle was turned off, which would in turn drain the battery. Then it progressed once again into the vehicle would not start as it was not sensing the brake being depressed on a push to start ignition system. The fix was faulty relays known in prior years from 2013-2014 same fault in 2015 model but no active recall. Second issue when A/C system is activated there's a vibration coming off of the fan assembly which causes a loud sound heard while the vehicle is stationary. Also a separate recall on 2013-2014 Pathfinder but does not cover the 2015 Nissan Pathfinder.

Multiple electrical issues after dealer service for 80,000 miles. The safety issue is intermittent acceleration issues when merging into traffic or starting from a full stop. Little to no acceleration in those situations. Other issues that came up at the same time include: A) intermittent brake lights staying on with vehicle parked and powered off and B) intermittent skid warning light illuminating for no reason.

Break lights will stay on even if the car is parked. It will stay on while driving. When this happens I have to depress brake pedal twice. The other issue is loss of power. When accelerating from a complete stop, the car will not go when I push the gas. Even if the accelerator is fully depressed the car will not move. This also occurs while in motion. It has happened while trying to accelerate onto the highway and there was loss of power.

Three times this week we have tried to accelerate our vehicle with no response. In addition, three times this week the brake lights have stayed on after shutting the vehicle off. The brake lights will stay on until you operate the vehicle again. The one day we didnt notice for about 40 minutes. I have read there have been recalls for the 2013 and 2014 brake relay switch so I'm thinking this is the same issue.

From a complete stop my car would not accelerate faster than 10 mph. It has happened several times now. The first time I was on the highway in stop and go traffic and when it was time to accelerate, I was unable to even pressing the gas all the way to the floor. I had to pull over and brake, then hit the gas and it was able to go again. The next time was after braking at a stop sign. The third time was after stopping at a red light. I had heavy traffic behind me and I could only go 10 mph. I even noticed after I parked my car and got out of it my brake lights were still on as if someone was sitting there pressing the brake-which wasn't the case at all. This is very dangerous. I had my child in the car all three times and im lucky I did not get rear ended.

Break lights will stay on even if the car is parked. It will stay on while driving. When this happens I have to disconnect the battery for the break lights to go off. Rediculous! the other issue is loss of power. Usually when this happens the skid dummy light will turn on and stay on. When accelerating from a complete stop, the car will not go when I push the gas. Even if the accelerator is fully depressed the car will not move. This also occurs while in motion. It has happened while trying to accelerate onto the highway and there was loss of power. I have almost gotten into several accidents with my children in the car and from my research I am not the only owner of Pathfinder that this has happened to. This is a total safety issue and the vehicle needs to be recalled before some one is seriously injured or killed!!!
