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.
There was no incident but now I-??m scared to drive my vehicle that I-??m still paying for and my insurance telling me if I don-??t get the recall resolve it-??s going to be an issue.
Check engine light comes on and vehicle will not cycle through gears. Will go into drive, reverse, neutral but not 1st, second, third. Vehicle will go back to normal after I disconnect the battery for a few minutes but the same issue will happen a few days later
We purchased the truck in 2018. Starting last year the truck starting losing power, not cutting on. Replaced the battery and have had 5 mechanics check it. Not one mechanic has been able to find the issue. Today my truck cut off in a tunnel with my children in the car. This could have and felt like an extremely dangerous situation. Upon further research Nissans losing power is a common issue. Nissan needs to take action and fix the malfunctions. I can-??t afford to be without a car, nor should I have to repair an issue that Nissan is responsible for.
While vehicle is in motion, the engine will all of a sudden seize. This has happened 5 times, 2 times on the freeway at 55 - 65 mph, seized in motion, stepped all the way down on gas after engine seized, engine revs, hardly any power, almost down to 10 mph in less than 10 seconds. Both times, was afternoon rush hour and while trying to get to the shoulder lane, I had to cross 2-3 lanes of very fast traffic, dropping to roughly 10 mph, barely missing impact with other cars, both times. The other 2 times, I was yielding while making a corner and the car seized, same spot and same experience as the freeway, what feels like almost complete engine failure. 5th time happened today, making a corner, tried to excel, engine reved and seized. All times, the engine light came on prior to. Please note, there was a recall for what appears to be the same issue, nhsta recall 11V-592. When I checked with Nissan and dealer, they both said my VIN wasn't part of the recall, but I'm experiencing the same issue described in the recall. This is a major accident waiting to happen.
The contact owns a 2012 Nissan Pathfinder. While the vehicle was undergoing routine maintenance, the dealer noticed that the passenger side engine mount failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.
