WITHIN THE LAST YEAR+ BOTH FRONT WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN APART INSIDE OF THE DOOR AND STOPPED WORKING. BOTH TIMES JUST AS I HIT THE BUTTON TO POWER DOWN THE WINDOW.

NOTHING COVERED BY MANUFACTURER. HAD TO PAY EXTENDED WARRANTY DEDUCTIBLE. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN DESIGN OR MATERIAL. BOTH TIMES THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. DRIVERS SIDE AT DRIVE THRU FOR COFFEE. PASSENGER SIDE SITTING IN PARKING SPACE. THIS CAR IS SUPER PAMPERED, GARAGE KEPT AND CLEAN, NO KIDS, NO PASSENGERS, BACK AND FORTH TO WORK, 95% ON 4 OR 6 LANE HIGHWAY.

I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2015 AND COMPLAINED ABOUT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS THE DEALER SAID IT WAS OK, IN 2017 I BEGAN HAVING MORE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, THE DEALER DID SOME WORK AND ADJUSTMENTS AND ADDED A MONITOR OF SOME KIND AND CLAIMED EVERYTHING WAS FINE, NOW TODAY A DIAGNOSIC SHOWS MY TRANSMISSION IS NOT WORKING AGAIN AND THE DEALER HAS NO IDEA WHY, I HAVE ALWAYS FELT THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OFF YEARS AGO BY REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. THERE IS A DEFECT WITH THEM AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON NISSAN TRANSMISSION IT SEEMS MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEM LIKE MY SELF. THE VEHICLE, SLIPS, HESTITATE, VIBRATES WHEN SPEEDING UP AND THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON.

THERE IS A SHAKING/SHUDDERING WHEN TURNING AT SLOW SPEEDS, SUCH AS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. ADDITIONALLY, THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OCCASIONS, IN BOTH 2 WHEEL AND AUTO/4 WHEEL, WHERE THE VEHICLE MAKES A THUMP WHILE TURNING AND/OR ACCELERATING. THE ISSUES SEEM TO BE SIMILAR TO WHAT TSB NO.15-015A REFER TO. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 11/07/18. THE THUMPING FIRST OCCURRED AROUND MAY/JUNE 2019 AND THE JUDDERING BEGAN TODAY 01/04/20

ON MONDAY 12/9/2019 I WAS DRIVING THE PATHFINDER ALONE ON AUDELIA ROAD IN DALLAS TEXAS. THE SPEED LIMIT IS 35 MPH IN THIS AREA. I WAS THE ONLY PERSON IN THE VEHICLE AND THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. AROUND 11:00 AM I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION AND THE VEHICLE WAS FILLED WITH DUST WHILE IN MOTION. ASSUMING I WAS HIT I PULLED OVER AND EXITED MY CAR. AFTER I GOT OUT OF THE CAR I NOTICED THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS IN THE AREA. I WALKED AROUND THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND SAW ZERO DAMAGE. (PHOTO ATTACHED) I LOOKED BACK INTO THE CAR AND THEN SAW THAT ALL OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.(PHOTO ATTACHED) THE AIRBAGS ON THE DRIVER SIDE DID NOT DEPLOY. MY HEAD WAS POUNDING AND MY EYES HURT FROM ALL THE DUST THAT WAS SHOT OUT IN THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYING. AAA TOWED MY CAR TO TROPHY NISSAN IN MESQUITE TEXAS. THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT TOUCH THE VEHICLE AS THEY STATED IT WAS A MANUFACTURE ISSUE. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN AND STARTED THE PROCESS. THE ENGINEER SENT BY NISSAN HAS ASSESSED THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT HE SEES NO PHYSICAL, ELECTRICAL OR AFTER MARKET PARTS THAT WOULD HAVE TRIGGERED THE FAILURE. (PHOTO ATTACHED) WE HAVE YET TO HEAR FROM NISSAN ON WHAT THEIR CONCLUSION IS BUT THE AIR BAG FAILURE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND COULD HAVE HURT MY INFANT CHILD SEVERELY AS THIS IS THE SIDE HER CAR SEAT IS LOCATED. LAST-WE ARE UNDER THE IMPRESSION WE HAD THE AIRBAG RECALL ISSUE REPAIRED IN APRIL 2019.TROPHY NISSAN WAS VERY MISLEADING WITH THEIR ANSWERS ON THE RECALL REPAIRS. PAPERWORK ATTACHED.*DT*JB

THE VEHICLE SHUTTERS FEELING AS IF IT WILL STALL AT LOW RPM BETWEEN 10MPH TO 20MPH WHILE DRIVING IN HIGHWAY COMMUTER TRAFFIC. THIS WAS REPORTED TO MY DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AT MULTIPLE SERVICE APPOINTMENTS SUCH AS OIL CHANGES. THE PROBLEM WAS PURPOSELY NOT DOCUMENTED ON MY SERVICE SHEETS AND I LEARNED THROUGH THE INTERNET OF WHAT MY PROBLEM WAS WHEN MY DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY COULD NOT DETECT A PROBLEM. THE CVT HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM WHEN THE WHOLE TIME I THOUGHT I HAD A FUEL OR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP WOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS AND KEPT ME IN THE DARK OF THIS PROBLEM. I FEEL VERY LET DOWN BY THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN AS THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM I KNOWN OF SINCE 50K MILES AND THE DEALERSHIP WOULD TELL ME NO PROBLEM WAS DETECTED.

AIR BAGS, SEATS
2014 PATHFINDER SV HYBRID 4WD PASSEGER AIRBAG SENSOR FRAME AND WIRING NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS ALWAYS DEACTIVATED, EVEN IF AN ADULT PASSENGER IS SEATED IN IT, THERE IS ALSO AN AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT THAT FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD. NISSAN'S OCS SYSTEM SEEMS TO BE FREQUENTLY COMPLAINED ABOUT ONLINE. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THIS IS JUST WEAR AND TEAR, WHICH I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND HOW A FRAME AND HARNESS FOR THE OCS (WHICH THEY SAY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR $1200) COULD BE A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. I JUST WANTED TO REPORT THIS ISSUE IN CASE THERE HAVE BEEN OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, AS THERE SEEMS TO HAVE ALREADY BEEN MANY RECALLS FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IN THIS CAR.

IT APPEARS THE MOLDING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ROOF RACK HAS COME APART. THE SEAL AND THE ACTUAL ROOF RACK PIECE NOW FLAP IN THE WIND. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THIS AND IT SEEMS SEVERAL HUNDRED PEOPLE HAVE DEALT WITH THIS ISSUE, EVEN AFTER MONTHS OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME I EXPERIENCED THIS WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND I HEARD SOMETHING HITTING MY ROOF, I FIGURED A STICK MIGHT OF GOT CAUGHT IN THE ROOF RACK OR SOMETHING. EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT FLAPS IN THE WIND.
