| Description of the problem | On 1/9 i suddenly noted a loud, shaking, vibrating noise in my 2017 pathfinder. I immediately attempted to get to the dealership but it was so bad i stopped at another repair shop on the way. I was told that it need a new cooling fan assembly due to bad bearings, to the tune of $850! Seems to be lots of complaints about this in low mileage new pathfinders. Mine has 64,500 miles. I was told it was dangerous to continue to drive as the vehicle could overheat or it could damage the radiator if it came apart while driving. |
