The engine cooling fan clutch assembly failed at 47,822 and it sounded like rapid fire going off in the front grill. The ipdm was replaced on this vehicle on 04_10_2019, with right at 50,000 miles. Vehicle was towed in and wouldn't turn off. Crest Nissan in frisco, tx pulled both battery cables, and then pulled the wiring harness out of the back of the ipdm module. They replaced the ipdm module at this time. After they did this is when the following issues started occurring. We back out, turn the wheels to the left or right, and then place the vehicle in drive. At this point we have turned the wheels back to a center position and go to accelerate to move forward. The engine RPM doesn't increase and the vehicle will not move. The truck is running, but nothing happens. After 3-5 seconds, the trucks accelerator pedal will engage and the truck will procced forward. Over 70% of the time, after this occurs, the truck exhibits a loss of power and a loud "roar" coming from the engine compartment. If you pull into a parking lot, turn the truck off, and go inside for a few minutes, the truck will start right up and the loud "roar" is now gone. However, there are times when you go to start the vehicle (using the start/stop button on the dash) and the engine sounds like it turns half a rotation, and then stops. Approximately 1 - 1.5 seconds later, the engine will continue to turn over and the truck will start. The technicians at crest Nissan originally told us that they couldn't find the issue and that our vehicle was ready for pickup on 07/11. My wife and I went to the dealer, got into the truck, and within five minutes duplicated the problem. We went back into the service department, asked billy to ride with us and he saw the problem. He then kept the vehicle and showed the technicians in the morning. We still don't have our truck back and they don't know what to do to fix.

Cooling fan assembly for radiator and climate control. Known issue across 2014-2018 Nissan Pathfinders. The fans/bearings/internal motors are cheap garbage and are failing. Owners are spending $1,000 on average to correct an issue that is the dealers fault. And in many cases the repair has to be done again because the replacement parts have the same issue. This is a systemic problem. The manufacturer knows it. I might Venture a guess that they purposefully used inferior parts that would necessitate repair, at consumer expense.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. After driving approximately thirty minutes, the instrument panel lost power for a few seconds and the steering wheel became difficult to maneuver. The contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road and powered off the engine. The vehicle was restarted, but the failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to surf city Nissan (located at 17331 beach blvd, huntington beach, ca 92647, (714) 500-6010) and test driven, but the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 27,662.

For the second time while driving my Pathfinder my car simply shuts itself off. It won't move at all. This has happened once going up a hill in December of 2017, and yesterday whole on a busy road. Luckily I was not rear ended. After about 20 minutes my car started normal and ran fine on the way home. If I was on a highway which I normally drive I would have been hit as there are no warning signs before it does this. I have brought it to the dealership and they can't get the car to show a code. My safety and the safety of others is at an all time high in this automobile.
