2004 Nissan Pathfinder Owner Comments

Pathfinder 6-cyl

I was driving slowly in perfect weather conditions in heavy traffic. I was far back from the car in front of me I then realized that the car in front of me had no taillights and was stopped, I stepped on the brakes and my brakes shimmied kind of like I was hydroplaining on water and then I hit the vehicle in front of me. The vehicle ran even though I hit them. This caused over 7,000 dollars worth of damage to my car and whiplash to me. Also a police officer saw the accident and he even said he saw how far away I was and did not understand why I did not stop. I am a parallel and I have already found that this is a safety issue Nissan needs to be responsible for and if they are not I will take them to court. Thank you for looking in to this. My husband is also a us marine serving in iraq and we bought this vehicle because he wanted me to be safe therefore I hope Nissan will take responsibility and fix these cars.

Consumer complained about multiple brake problems. While driving and attempting to apply brakes he heard a grinding noise. Then vehicle shook and vibrated. Consumer took the vehicle to the dealer, and was told by the dealer that they were having a nation wide problem with the brakes due to manufacturer's design flaw. Consumer indicated that when he took vehicle to the dealer they put new brake pads and resurfaced the rotors when the vehicle was just a month old.
