This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2002 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact purchased a new child seat and installed it with the lap and shoulder harness. As a result, she discovered that the seat belt would not tighten and/or loosen. The dealer stated that the original seat belts in the vehicle were not made for a majority of child seats. The dealer further stated that the shoulder harness was defective and was a common failure with this year, make, and model. The seat belts failed to engage because they were being over-extended. The contact moved the center seat belt to the passenger side; however, she no longer has a center seat belt and the movement of the seat belts did not correct the failure. The failure and current mileages were 88,000.
I have a 2002 Nissan Pathfinder manufactured in April of that year. My vehicle does not have the lower anchors for the latch system, but does have a rear tether anchor in the floorboard of the trunk. I can not securely install a rear-facing convertible crs due to extened webbing on the seat belts. I have tried 3 different crs models unsucessfully. I have contacted the car dealership, maufacturer and a certified car seat safety inspection point. At this point, there is not a remedy to this problem.
