Denise of Landing, NJ March 14, 2010 I own a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder. I have already had to have the heat sheild welded because it rattles. Now the heat blows only cold air when the car is sitting stil. This is even after it was driven for an hour. I live in the north east. In the winter I have had Ice on the inside of my windshield making it impossible to see. Not only are we freezing it is a hazzard to drive. I have never dirven a car where I need to keed de-icer in my car to keep my windshield clean on the inside. It is worse as the temp. gets colder outside.Now the check engine light is on. NIZAMETTIN of TUCSON, AZ March 13, 2010 I just had a serious problem with my Nissan Pathfinder 2005. I lost 600 dollars to change fuel pump, doing what Brake Master told me. But next day my car stopped in the middle of the road. I don't know if this the way they work. Other day I have learnt that problem was in fuel sensors. Now I am trying to persuade Nissan to recall. Peter of Phoenix, AZ March 12, 2010 This is obviously an issue soon to be addressed. I am the sole owner of a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder with 112,000 miles. After recognizing something wasn't right with my transmission, I had taken it in for a look. The tranny is needing an overhaul and the cause was documented to be water in the transmission, likely from the radiator fluid leaking into the transmission. Both are needing to be replaced as well as the catalytic converter. Unneccessarly incurred costs to fix transmission and radiator, catalytic converter and Rental vehicle expenses. I was considering trading my vehicle in for a new one, however, this obviously common defect greatly affects trade in value when the car doesn't run! Kimberly of Loganville, GA March 11, 2010 I have a 2005 Pathfinder that has the same problems as others that a recall was not issued for my gas gauge went out 1st than the oil level went out causing you to think that the vechile is going to overheat also when the heat is on if you stop for any reason the blower blows cold air I took my truck in for service on 1/10/10 & was told it needed a heat sensor fuel level sensor & an electrical connection which will cost 500-600 dollars. I have spoke with Nissan Consumer Affairs & was told they would not cover or help with any expenses. Why would a recall be issused for 2006-2009 and not 2005 when so many of them are having the same problems? I am holding out on repairs hoping this will be covered by nissan. "I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN" Brahim of Brooklyn, NY March 10, 2010 I have been having a lot of problems with my Nissan Pathfinder(2005) model. The Senser, gas pump and radtior leakage into the transmission mixing oil and anti- freze. Nissan does not want to do any repairs to the car. My car stopped in the middle of the freeway. The gas pumped so quickly and stopped on the road. My family and I could have been hit in the back without knowing. John of Paxton, MA March 4, 2010 My 2005 Pathfinder has the fuel sensor issues that Nissan just recalled. My Pathfinder is not on the recall list. I called 2 months ago to file a complaint with Nissan as this is an obvious manufacturing defect. I was told then that Nissan felt this was not a recall issue. Now I'm being told it is okay for a 2005 to have the problem but not the 2006. This is just wrong. Nothing yet holding off on the 600.00 to fix it. Many people have run out of gas thinking they still had gas in their tank. Nicole of Orange, CA March 3, 2010 I have a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder. I have the same problem as most the radiator leaked into the transmission causing both to fail. I was at a light stopped when all of a sudden the engine started smoking and all the transmission fluid and and coolant leaked onto the street. I had 2 children in my vehicle at the time. Nissan is refusing to pay for this and help me since the vehicle is no longer under warranty. We as consumers need to fight back. We need to file complaints everywhere possible and get some kind of class action lawsuit going. I called channel 7 news in CA today to see if we can get any kind of exposure. Please people do the same. I am writing letters to the president of Nissan demanding help since they sold me a defective piece of crap and they knew about it. No fix is in place for the problem so this will just continue to happen to us. Nissan step up and fix these cars. This is going to be 6300.00 to replace both the radiator and transmission and nothing is in place to prevent this from happening. Nissan has a defective radiator seal and just keep putting the same defect back into the car. Someone help CRYSTAL of WHITE HOUSE , TN March 3, 2010 I have had nothing but problems since I bought my 2005 pathfinder brand new. 78,000 miles started acting up when the the car was in overdrive. The shifting at speeds between 35-50 mph was not smooth.I took it to nissan. After bringing the car in to be looked at I was told the radiator was cracked and leaked into the transmission and need to be replaced. So paid 1100.00 to have radiator replaced. My warrenty was no long good since it was 2009. Not only have I had that problem. We recently paid to have the sensor on the gas gage replace. It would say I was on empty and have a full tank. I was haveing these problems before my warrenty was up and they continued to send me away and say that there was no problem. Nissan knows of these issue people are dealing with and refusing to fix or recall then. I think something really needs to be done about this. I have read so many cases of the same problems and it upsets me that its the same issues over and over again. Maria of Lawrenceville, GA March 3, 2010 "I have a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder. I've encountered several problems. I first noticed a problem with the fuel gauge. Goes to "empty" when filling the tank and stays there for 50 miles or better. Found out that a sensor is the common problem with a 400-500 cost to fix? Next, for some odd reason, the heater blows cold air when stopped ( warm motor) ? Most importantly, I've heard that the '05 radiators are very prone to corrosion/leakage causing coolant to mix with transmission fluid and ultimately ruining the trannies. It seems as though there's been alot of people experiencing this and Nissan won't handle it out of warranty. This is absurd considering the amount of problems. There is a strange light vibration from 30 mph on ( brand new tires, etc). Sounds like the beginning of a tranny problem caused by the reciprocal leakage of radiator fluid into tranny and tranny back. Since this has been an ongoing problem with Nissans this should have been a recall, but somehow, Nissan is keeping it quiet. It's really a danger to driver and passengers if tranny quits while on the road. I contacted Nissan and because I am out of warranty they won't do anything about it. " ***I copied this from another consumer, since I am having the EXACT SAME PROBLEMS!" Richard of Cottage Grove, MN February 23, 2010 My 2007 Nissan Pathfinder with 58,000 miles started acting up when the the car was in overdrive. The shifting at speeds between 35-50 mph was not smooth. After bringing the car in to be looked at I was told the radiator leaked into the transmission and they both need to be replaced to a tune of 7000. Under normal circumstances I understand paying for the radiator repair that is no longer covered under warranty, but my transmission which is still under the 5 year/60,000 warranty should be taken care of by Nissan. I was told that because the radiator was the primary failed part, they would not cover the transmission. After reading several items on the internet, the issue with radiator leaking sounds like a recall issue that Nissan is refusing to deal with. Too many Pathfinders have been having this problem.
