Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

    This is such a great review. He made note of every point I was looking for in a review. I have driven many different models of the previous version of the Pathfinder, and I look forward to driving this one.

    I'd be very curious to know what dealer you bought your Pathfinder from, in what state, what city, and what the VIN # of yours is. Because your Pathfinder experience seems very unique; I'd really like to see the documentation path, between you and the dealer. I bought a SL 4WD in February, have 3K miles on it, and everything is PERFECT. Hose didn't fall off, overdrive works perfectly, lights are bright and shiny, no paint rubbing anywhere. I am a very happy customer of Nissan's.

    The original concept of the Pathfinder was sent out to pasture when the Xterra was released. This is just a bigger version of the Murano, which is a bigger version of the Rogue. All of them being CVT based vehicles.

  • @diamond_movado

    What are you talking about? It does do better than its competitors having an AWD option with a locking differential, better ground clearance, metal chain in the tyranny to tow up to 5,000 lbs., and much more all for a reasonable price. In its class, it exceeds in pretty much every criteria in comparison to its competition.

    We bought the new 2013 Nissan Pathfinder (SL version 45K) in January/13. By now, the SUV broke down 4 times: transmission hose fell off (the car had to be towed), overdrive did not work from the beginning, front lights burnt out, trunk door rubbed paint off the car due to bad alignment. All of these are manufacturing defects. We highly recommend this vehicle if you like to drive dirty service cars or unsuccessfully deal with Nissan Customer Service.

    I think reviewers should be more consistent by having a more solid routine to show the car. In one review they show the 2nd row seats and its leg room and next one they totally miss it. Also they should do their homework by visiting the car maker website to see the features the car maker is pointing out to discuss later on reviews. Pathfinder seems to have a possibility to move the 2nd row seats all the way back to make the leg room even larger. At least this is what Nissan website shows.

    Nissan doesn't change drastically to customers needs which they're true to their heritage unlike Honda and Toyota. This is what makes Nissan special in the Japanese segment. If you want an over priced econo box, thats what Honda's fleet is for. The pathfinder gets leading mpg in its class anyways.

    It's still a heavy gas guzzler. The only difference is that it's a car-based one that has neither stellar towing capacity OR off-road usability. It should've been named something else, if anything.

    I guess you expect Uncle Sam to bail out Nissan for making trucks that don't sell? Any successful company needs to cater to the changing needs of its customers. People started realizing that they didnt needs heavy, gas guzzlers, with lousy road manners to haul their spawn to and from the mall. Like I said, they still have the xterra for those who want offroad capability.

  • @TruAgape123

    Since Renault, Nissan reliability has declined. Reliability, durability, and longevity is no longer available in their cars. The 05 pathfinder started out with a full red circle ( highest ranking) in Consumer Reports, and in a few short years plummeted to a full black circle( lowest ranking). Mixing Renauult parts, and philosophy into Nissans is a BAD move. When I see Nissans now, I see a Renault, and their awful reliability record.

The vehicle shudders (had to have a new transmission put in), abs brakes are defective, he passenger airbag is defective and the roof racks are constantly coming off... If you are looking for a reliable, long lasting safe vehicle Do not buy a Pathfinder !!!!!

    Competition has gone soft? Lmao Is that why they're leading in sales in its class for 2013, and is more capable than its competitors offroad with still leading mpg ?No, your opinion is invalid. In this day in age, it has adapted to societies standards among many other suv's switching to a unibody. Besides if you wanted it for offroad, you should buy the xterra which still does a better job in its class for the price.
