Documented Nissan Pathfinder conditions
Higher safety relevance appears first. The order does not measure reliability.
2017 to 2018 Nissan Pathfinder · Brakes
Braking performance may be reduced
The Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) actuator pumps may allow brake fluid to leak onto an internal circuit board.
2015 to 2016 Nissan Pathfinder · Safety restraints
Air bag system safety defect
In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied.
2018 to 2019 Nissan Pathfinder · Visibility & cameras
Rearview camera image may not display
The back-up camera and display settings can be adjusted such that the rear view image is no longer visible and the system will retain that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse.
2024 Nissan Pathfinder · Safety restraints
Seat belt may not restrain an occupant
The lap belt pretensioner in the left-side front seat belt assembly may be improperly secured, due to a missing rivet.
2023 Nissan Pathfinder · Body & structure
Seat component may not remain secure
The driver's powered seat may not be fully secured to the seat frame, causing the seat frame welds to detach from the rear inboard seat bracket.
Before diagnosing the Nissan Pathfinder
Use the right check before buying a part
A symptom can have several causes. These guides help separate a useful clue from a diagnosis that still needs testing.
Check recalls by VIN
A VIN search checks the displayed NHTSA records for an unrepaired safety recall associated with one vehicle. A model search shows only the wider campaign population.
Read guide ↗When a car is unsafe
A warning light does not always mean the same thing, but weak brakes or smoke leave little room for experimentation. Damaged tires and certain recall instructions can do the same.
Read guide ↗Why symptoms overlap
“It makes a weird noise” is useful human language. Diagnosis begins when that language is tied to the exact vehicle and its operating conditions.
