Rear hatch hydraulics not staying up all the way. Have not been working well for some time and now the cold weather is causing them to not hold open rear hatch at all. Have not looked into having parts replaced yet.
My 2005 Nissan Pathfinder le has a loud squeak/vibration coming from the underbody ever since it was purchased. Eight visits to dealer sterling mccall and they have not been able to confirm the cause.
My 2005 Nissan Pathfinder, that I got after Nissan did a buy back to my 2004 Nissan quest (with a lot of problems),has a rattle sound coming from the two front windows when they are open. They sound like they are loose inside the door. I went to the dealer and they told me there is nothing that they can do. They reported the problem to Nissan. Until now I am waiting for the solution.
