Very happy with my SUV for hauling grandkids and friends. Love power lift gate, 2nd row heated seats. We got with tow package. Over all my hubby and I have both enjoyed our pick. Cons: road noise as it has got older, reverse camera not the best, and transition has to be computer reset at Dealer.

The Pathfinder was not originally on my list, gravitating towards the Mazda CX-5 due to sportiness and fuel economy. When I took the 15 & 17yo boys to look at the new car, they sat in the back of the Mazda and declared, "no way". We headed up car dealer row trying out similar vehicles: Mazda CX-9, Hyundai Santa Fe, Subaru Outback, Toyota Highlander, Chevy Traverse & Equinox, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Journey, Ford Edge and Explorer. Of all those that "fit", the Nissan had the best fuel economy, and the most attractive interior. It's just plain a comfortable ride, with near luxury interior and nice soft leather seats. Good since I was replacing an Escalade and Jaguar with the Nissan. Update: ultimately the Pathfinder was failed by an unreliable transmission and Nissan's ambiguous Support. They required a check engine code before they would take action. Although the dealer tech actually observed the shuddering, Nissan wouldn't replace the transmission before the warranty expired because no code was produced. The transmission started whining after the warranty expired during cold warm up, getting progressively louder and continuing to warmer temps. Nissan required a $149 diagnostic to even tell me anything about the new problem. I decided to trade it instead before the transmission failed on me. I have a beautiful Audi Q5 with a normal geared transmission, no more Nissan CVTs.

We have had this car for 3 years and have made lots of trips inside of Texas as well as some to other states. It is a great car to travel in. The back seat is comfortable for adults and there was plenty of room for luggage. We do not use the 3rd row of seats very often but it is great to know they are there if we need them. We have driven from Texas to Florida twice with 4 adults and would gladly do it again. I am 5' 7" so leg room is important. The back AC controls are awesome, especially when my grandkids are in the back. Love this car. UPDATE: Just came back from the dealer to trade this one in for a 2015 Pathfinder. Very excited!

Very good car over all, good performance and fuel economy for its size. For almost 3 years car performed very well but will just 35K mile on odometer we stated having acceleration issues. When costing around 20 mile and hour the car would not randomly accelerate even if you floor the accelerator. This was very bad for salty as you never new if the car would go. You had to completely back off the accelerator and then re-accelerate to get it going. The dealer was able to dignose the problem and replaced the CVT under warenty and the car is working fine again. However now we are worried if we can this is car we can keep long term.

I bought platinum premium pkg one week ago I was going to buy infiniti JX but I compere both of this car and has same feature and lot cheaper then infiniti JX and I save almost $6000 dollar I love the car. I bought this car at 640nissan Knoxville tn which provides 100K miles powertrain Warranty. Salesman were so trained and well-mannered not like other dealers who just want to push you even u don?t even like, chris miller was my salesman one of the best and educated regarding the car. I would definitely recommend this vehicle to anybody who is looking for a SUV better then Toyota Highlander.
