Used 1994 Nissan Pathfinder Consumer Reviews
One thing to remember.... timing belt!
I got very unlucky, but it was my own fault. I traded for a '93 pathfinder and did not have the timing belt changed immediately after purchasing it. It does have a belt and not a chain! The vehicle had 150K when I got it. It had the orginal timing belt that broke after I had only owned it for about a month. Be sure to have the timing belt changed. I had to replace a motor. $2500!!!
pathy
i have loved this truck from day 1. my dad messed up the engine from carelessness so i replaced it with another stock engine and have absolutely no problems other than exhaust leaks which are fixed buy headers all and all i love this vehicle from the way it drives to the way it looks.
Best SUV I've ever owned!
This SUV was great - before I lost my Pathfinder due to an accident in which a driver ran a red light and broadsided it. She had 213K miles and I know she would have made it to 300K. The only problem I ever experienced was a broken power steering belt and that was it. This SUV just performed and if maintained properly will last a very long time. I am convinced that even though this model had no airbags it protected me from the accident.
Great SUV
Great on and off road. The pathfinder really has a styling that just doesnt get old.
Served Our Purposes Well
We bought our Pathfinder with the Sport Option to have the spare well mounted outside the cargo hold. For years we used it in truly rugged conditions. It has been down many a lost trail hauling 5-6 kayaks to rivers. Only got stuck at the base of a steep incline once on snowy winter day. Not enough weight in back to keep the tires grounded, but did managed to finally get itself out of trouble just as our friends arrived in a "Jeep Cherokee". Mechanically we have been annoyed with the exhaust pipes breaking just behind the engine block. Really annoying and expensive to fix. We have 250,000 km on this beast.
