Having fun driving
The ONLY problem I have had with my pathfinder has been with the Les Schwab Tires that the previous owner had put on the SUV. The side walls were caving in and created a wabble when going around curves. After buying different tires from Les Schwab, it is doing 100% better. I would like alittle more room in the back seat though. 3 kids and a dog seem to not fit comfortably. I would also recommend an automatic transmission.
Great SUV
This has been a great SUV for us. No problems whatsoever.

OVERALL GREAT CAR, LITTLE TOO MUCH ON GAS, GENERALLY EXCELLENT NO COMPLAINTS , FEW MINOR POINTS, THE FOG LAMMP ON ONE SIDE KEPT GOING OUT EVERY YEAR , I REPLACED IT FOR WHILE NOW IVE GIVEN UP. STEADY ON THE ROAD NEEDS GOOD TIRES ALL THE TIME.
This Truck Holds Up
I purchased this Pathfinder off-lease at 36,000 miles and have since racked up 115,000 miles. I have absolutely hammered this thing. 4 cross country trips, some serious off roading, living above 8,000 ft in the Utah mountains, and lots of 4WD driving in snow. She has never let me down, always starting right up. I have had the front rotors turned(they became warped) at 45,000 miles and a new Throttle Position Sensor. No other repairs other than normal wear and tear. This is not a fast vehicle, but it gets you wherever you need to go. Fuel economy is not great, but it is an SUV. K&N air filter and Platinum plugs help. Still drives well, I expect to put 250k on her.
My path
Excellent vehicle in all respects
