Nissan Poor Technology

If you own or buy a 2020 Nissan Pathfinder SL, and if your Pathfinder has the option "Hands Free Lift-Gate", you can not install a trailer (AKA Tow Hitch Receiver). Makes no difference if it is a Nissan hitch or a generic hitch. If you do install, the vehicle Nissan warrant will be void. Believe me I tried every avenue even contracting Nissan by Case #42431832. I now own a 2020 Nissan Pathfinder SL and cannot move my boat trailer or utility trailer. What is Nissan thinking???

I have owned 2 new pathfinders. 2019 and 2020. The 2019 had several recalls for CVT transmission and ABS actuator light. Nissan did not have the part made for the 2019 recall issue. I was with out my vehicle for over 45 days. Now my 2020 has started with the same issues.

Two week trip pain free

Recently rented a 2020 Pathfinder for a two week trip to Denver from Prov., RI. I have back issues and was concerned as I often experience pain after two hours or less of driving. I tried the Pathfinder and several other Mid-sized SUV's in dealer lots before deciding on the Pathfinder. It was a good choice and after a 4,900+ round trip it will be top of our list when we replace my wife's car next July. Lots of room for luggage and gifts on the way out and for carrying up to six people to a wedding site in the mountains when there. If you want a three row SUV, you should look at this car. Comfort and styling are great.

Good ride at good price

I purchased the 2020 Pathfinder SL Rock Creek edition, which is slightly slimmer than the regular models. It rides great and the options it has are great, especially the Bose speakers. The only options I wanted was bluetooth and leather seats, so unfortunately, the lowest model with leather seats is the SL. Though the dashboard does look a little dated, compared with other auto brands, I like it for its simplicity. My one gripe with Nissan is not including Google Play or Apple Play options, given that these are relatively old technology that many other brands include in their models. It's almost like Nissan wants to force you to use their map option, which is OK at best. It rides well, and I love the black trims that this model comes with. This is my 3rd Nissan and so far I've enjoyed all of them.
