The vehicle shakes, jerks and shudders during acceleration at low speeds I.e. 20-40 mph. It feels like it stalls and then goes again. This happened in traffic on the freeway and on the freeway on ramp, in a roundabout and just turning or going through a light. After some research it appears it is the cvt transmission. The vehicle also has a very loud ac blower inside. It sounds like a jet engine when the fan is turned higher.

Radiator / coolant fan. Fan makes loud, card in bike tire spokes like noise, as if somethings clipping the fan. Passenger side fan clearly wobbles. Appears to be an issue on many vehicles.

When the ac or heat is turned on the car starts to shake and or vibrate. The front end of the car sounds very loud like a lawnmower is just right in front of you. When you open up the hood you can see that the cooling fan in the front of the vehicle is rattling when the ac or the heat is turned off but the fan engages to cool the engine it make the same sound. Car is at 68K miles repair for cooling fan is very costly and apparently common on the Pathfinders

Couple of things, first the front passenger air bag is set to off when there is an adult sitting there, and I have a blinking airbag light, at all times no matter what. Second, there is a loud noise coming from the engine when I turn my heater on. I can also feel the vibration when I'm still. The SUV only has about 44K miles. I see this is a common issue that has not been addressed. I'm definitely disappointed.

In October 2019, our car started making a rattling sound in the front of the engine. My husband discovered that it stopped when the air system (heating or cooling) was turned off. We took it in to a mechanic and he stated it sounded like the cooling fan assembly. When we first bought the car (2 years ago- used), the first week we had it the cooling fan assembly went bad and had to be replaced. Luckily the dealer we bought it from replaced it without charging us. We were surprised to find out the same system is failing after only 44,000 miles. It failed at 33,000 miles the first time. It was recommended to not drive the car far distances with the air system on as they are unsure what could happen to the assembly or its effect on the engine if it gets worse. They recommend replacing it again. We were surprised this piece should fail twice in the 77,000 miles on the car. Not confident that replacing it is the answer as one would expect it to fail again since there has not been a recall on the part.

The driver's side visor would not stay up. It began with not going all the way up, but eventually hung straight down and could not put it in any other position. It hangs in front of your face and cannot see to drive. We attempted velcro to attach it to the roof, but it would all of a sudden give way dropping on my head (I am short and close to the windshield) or in front of my husband's face where he could not see. It drops down with no warning (pressing on brakes, turning, etc). Nissan reported this has happened in other Nissan Pathfinders, but there is no recall at this time. Our passenger side is beginning to do the exact same thing.

- Evans City, PA, USA

Lugnuts completely fell off, stem broke, and wheel flew up into wheel well causing a potentially dangerous accident at 60 mph on a major interstate with no pull off due to not being able to move car and major damage to car. Second time in car history has had lugnuts fall off and break stems.

- Greensburg, PA, USA

Just now passed 85K miles on my Pathfinder. Horrendously loud and embarrassing clattering noise coming from front of car. Nissan diagnosed that needed to have cooling fan assembly replaced at a ridiculously high price of $900! I don't have $900. So, it's 96 degrees out and my three girls and I are trying not to have heat strokes in our only form of transportation. Where's the recall Nissan? I've read hundreds of other reviews with same issue.

- Enterprise, AL, USA

My vehicle is financed through Nissan and I still have 10 months of the note left. I have recently been provided a diagnosis that my cooling fan assembly motor and bearings have failed and will need replacement. Many Nissan Pathfinder owners are posting similar issues with their cars. I have only approximately 68,000 miles on the car. Based on the number of complaints, there maybe an underlying problem with the part. I am provided a $1000 estimate to resolve this issue. I want you to take this complaint seriously and protect the vehicle owners.

I purchased a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder on May 2015 and the drivers side sun visor will no longer stay up, it has been getting progressively worse over the last several months. Will require replacement because of a safety issue.

- Charlottesville, VA, USA

The cooling fan started making a terrible noise at around 48,000 miles. The noise would happen when the fan kicked on. The fan was starting to separate from the bearing. I called Nissan and they wouldn't cover it. I told them many other Nissan are having the same issue. They said they would put my complaint on file. I had to pay for a new fan out of pocket.

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 will not accelerate (no throttle response) randomly and without warning. Rpms do not budge despite pedal being to the floor. Problem seems to be more common when the steering wheel is turned. Shifting vehicle I to neutral briefly and then back to drive seems to resolve problem, but this isn't at all safe turning into in an intersection with cars coming. Seems kind of ridiculous this isn't a big deal to an oem.

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.

On 12/22/18 we were leaving the driveway when we heard a loud banging/clicking noise from the cooling fan on the driver side. Have taken it to a local mechanic and they said that the entire cooling fan assemble needs to be replaced. Spoke with cape girardeau, mo Nissan dealership and they confirmed that there was a recall on this part for 12-13 Nissan Pathfinders, but not for the 2015S. They gave me a quote of $730 plus taxes to repair. Don't know if vehicle can even be driven because it is unknown as to what the fan is bumping against. Dealer said if it is bumping against the radiator, it could cause a leak or severe damage. If the fan blades are hitting something else, they could break and could cause engine damage. We would need to have vehicle towed about 60 miles to dealership for them to replace the fan assembly.

I just purchased a used 2015 Nissan Pathfinder with 24,000 miles three months ago. In the last few weeks I have been experiencing problems accelerating after coming to a complete stop and while driving at normal speeds. I would start to accelerate after a complete stop and the Pathfinder would only move at a slightly higher than idle speed until I put my foot on the brake and then once again on the accelerator pedal. Other times I will be driving at a speed above 20 miles per hour and the Pathfinder will no longer accelerate past the current speed no matter how hard I press the accelerator until I tap the brake and then the accelerator. I also noticed that some times when one of these events happens, the slip light indicator will come on and stay on until the Pathfinder is turned off and back on. This issue can happen several times in one day or not at all for several days. I was almost T-boned today while crossing a street when I had no power. This is a huge safety issue. I took it to the dealer where I bought it and they found nothing wrong.

The radiator cooling fan assembly became inoperable. The vehicle was stationary. Cooling fan began to make weird noises, had to replace complete fan assembly after 40K miles.

- Mayaguez, PR, USA

My vehicle has 47000 miles on it and the fan has failed causing noise when either the heat or ac is turned on. I see that it is a common complaint

In 2017 I started experiencing problems accelerating after coming to a complete stop and while driving at normal speeds. I would start to accelerate after a complete stop and the Pathfinder would only move at a slightly higher than idle speed until I put my foot on the brake and then once again on the accelerator pedal. Other times I will be driving at a speed above 20 miles per hour and the Pathfinder will no longer accelerate past the current speed no matter how hard I press the accelerator until I tap the brake and then the accelerator. Every time either of these events happens, the slip light indicator will come on and stay on until the Pathfinder is turned off and back on. This issue can happen 10 times in one day or not at all for several days. In 2017 I found a lot of Pathfinder owners having the same problem online, so I took it to Nissan D'patrick in evansville, in. I explained the problem and spent a couple of hours in the dealership and they said that they adjusted a few things but could not find a problem. I was told that they had no knowledge of any problem along the lines of what I was telling them. I went back to D'patrick letting them know that whatever they adjusted did not work. I was told that there is nothing they can do. There have been several close calls when turning into traffic and the Pathfinder not accelerating.I have learned to be patient when turning on to a busy street because I never know when the Pathfinder will not perform the simple duty of accelerating. This vehicle is a huge safety risk to my family and other innocent people on the road. I met someone with the same problem locally and he told me that he filed a complaint on Nissan and had the dealership pull up all of the complaints and they admitted that they knew about the problem and that they have a work around for the issue by bypassing a harness system.

The coolant fan is defective makes a terrible noise. I only have 26000 miles and now have to replace a expensive part. Unfortunately warrant ran out because of age of car. It was sitting at an idle and suddenly then started clanging very loudly.
