2005 Nissan PATHFINDER Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1214536
Internal NHTSA #	10759951
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	PATHFINDER
Model Year	2005
File date	12/07/13
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The vehicle has had all sorts of issues starting with the brakes when one brake shoe totally disintegrated and evidently ruptured brake lines at around 61,000 miles. New brake replacement almost $900. Since that time (the vehicle now has 75000 miles) the transmission has continually slipped, the gas gauges and all other gauges work intermittently, and the emissions test last month showed possible catalytic converter issues (there are evidently two). When taken in for service the service technician suggested i get rid of the vehicle because it was notorious for cross contamination of coolant and transmission fluid. Continuing to drive it would eventually destroy the transmission, and even now may have permanent damage. When contacting nissan about possible recalls and the supposed settled class action lawsuit concerning the transmission contamination, i was told i would need documentation of all service done to the vehicle to receive $800 toward the necessary $3800 repair cost just for the contamination leak. If anyone is considering purchasing this or any other nissan product, i would avoid it at all cost.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
