| Description of the problem | 2016 nissan pathfinder, started making loud clanking noises and vibrating in the front of the vehicle when the air conditioning went on. Did not matter if the vehicle was stationary or in motion. First noticed after exiting the highway and noticed the temp needle was slowing climbing. The bearing on one of the cooling fans crapped out with only 49,000 miles. Was lucky to have caught it before it overheated or blew the motor. An expensive repair not covered by the dealership. |
