THE SAME EVENING I NOTICED THE CAR VIOLENTLY JERKING FROM STOP TO 35 MPH (2000 RPM). I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A FLUKE. 4 DAYS LATER THE CAR DID THE SAME THING SEVERAL TIMES. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP. THEY CLAIM THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE ISSUE. 3 DAYS AFTER THAT, THE CAR VIOLENTLY JERKED FROM STOP TO 35 MPH ALL MORNING. I TOOK IT BACK TO DEALERSHIP. THEY DUPLICATED THE ISSUE. SAID CAR NEEDS A TRANSMISSION. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE TO DETERMINE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN. IT HAPPENS QUIT FREQUENTLY WITH THE 2013/2014 CVT TRANSMISSIONS IN THE PATHFINDERS. CHECK EDMUNDS.COM, KBB.COM, ETC FOR REVIEWS. THE CUSTOMER REVIEWS ALL SAY THE SAME THING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE WHEN THE CAR IS TRYING TO LEAVE 2ND GEAR WHILE JERKING, IT IS NOT PICKING UP SPEED AND CAN CAUSE SOMEONE TO RUN INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR; CAUSING INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO IMMEDIATELY AND NISSAN NEEDS TO STOP PRODUCTION OF THESE TRANSMISSIONS UNTIL THEY CAN FIX THE PROBLEM. NHTSA PLEASE GET INVOLVED TO STOP NISSAN FROM PRODUCING THESE FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS AND TO FORCE THEM TO FIX THE ONES THEY HAVE SOLD TO INNOCENT PURCHASERS. IT'S NOT RIGHT THAT THEY CONTINUE TO TAKE INNOCENT PEOPLE'S HARD EARN MONEY AND PROFIT FROM THAT, WHILE WE ARE FORCED TO PAY TO RIDE IN WHAT COULD BE A ACCIDENT CAUSING VEHICLE; RESULTING IN INJURY AND/OR WORSE CASE, DEATH!!!

CRUISE CONTROL INTERMITTENTLY DISENGAGES GOING DOWN A SHALLOW BUT STRAIGHT ROAD. IN A 3 TO 4 MILE DRIVING STRETCH, IT WILL, AT TIMES, DISENGAGE 2 TO 3 TIMES. 2. THE ¿¿SET¿ AND â¿¿RESUME¿ TOGGLE SWITCH AT TIMES THEN DOES NOT RE-ENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE SWITCH ACTS DEAD. I THEN HAVE TO SWITCH OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THEN SWITCH IT BACK ON TO HAVE THE TOGGLES SWITCH WORK BUT NOT ALWAYS. 3. THE CRUISE AND SET INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DO NOT FLICKER. THE NISSAN DEALER CARRIED OUT A TEST RUN AND FOUND THE CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGING EXACTLY AS STATED ABOVE. THEY REPLACED PART #25550-3KS1A, SWITCH ASSEMBLY-STE, TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM BUT IT DID NOT. THEY REITERATE THAT SUCH A CONDITION OF CRUISE DISENGAGEMENT AS STATED IN THE OWNERâ¿¿S MANUAL IS CONSIDERED NORMAL AND ACCEPTABLE. HAVING READ THE OWNERâ¿¿S MANUAL, I DO NOT FIND ANY MENTION OF THE TOGGLE SWITCH INTERMITTENTLY ACTING DEAD AFTER DISENGAGEMENT OF THE CRUISE CONTROL NOR THE HIGH FREQUENCY OF THE DISENGAGEMENT. THIS CONDITION IS CAUSING ME TO CONCENTRATE MORE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RATHER THAN ON THE ROAD. I AM REPEATEDLY UNSURE WHETHER THE CRUISE IS ENGAGED OR NOT. THIS DISTRACTION COULD RESULT IN A FATAL ACCIDENT. IT'¿¿S LIKE TEXTING WHILE DRIVING. EITHER WAY, THE END RESULT WOULD BE AN AVOIDABLE FATALITY(S).THIS CONDITION CLEARLY AMOUNTS TO A ROAD SAFETY HAZARD. THE MANUFACTURER, BY MERELY STATING THAT THE CRUISE MAY DISENGAGE DRIVING DOWN IN HILLY TERRAIN CANNOT ABSOLVE ITSELF OF THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE SAFETY OF THE OCCUPANTS OF THE CAR. SUCH HIGH FREQUENCY OF CRUISE DISENGAGEMENT AND TOGGLE SWITCH FAILURE CANNOT BE CONSIDERED NORMAL. MORE THAN LIKELY A SOFTWARE DESIGN PROBLEM.

I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO THE SERVICE CENTER IN EXCESS OF 5 TIMES OVER THE COURSE THAT I HAVE HAD THE CAR (PURCHASED IN OCTOBER 2013) FOR THE AIR BAG LIGHT ISSUE. WHEN A PASSENGER SITS IN THE SEAT, THE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT MAY STAY ON DURING THE COURSE OF THE DRIVE, INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG IS TURNED OFF. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME A PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT AND ONLY AT RANDOM TIMES. THE SERVICE CENTER HAS UPDATED THE SYSTEM PROGRAMMING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NISSAN PATHFINDER RECALL AGAINST THE AIRBAG ISSUE. THE SERVICE CENTER HAS ALSO REPLACED THE AIR BAG SENSOR. OVER THE COURSE OF TIME, NONE OF THESE "FIXES" HAVE RESOLVED THE ISSUE. I HAVE COME TO FIND THAT IT MAY BE A PROGRAMMING ISSUE WITH THE AIR BAG -- IF A PASSENGER IS NOT FULLY SEATED AND STILL AT THE MOMENT THE CAR IS TURNED ON, THE SENSOR WILL NOT PROPERLY REGISTER THE PASSENGER WEIGHT. TYPICALLY, WHEN THE WEIGHT IS UNDETERMINED OR CANNOT BE IMMEDIATELY READ, THE CAR WILL KEEP THE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT ON ASSUMING THAT IT FALLS OUTSIDE OF THE "ADULT WEIGHT" CATEGORY. THE LIGHT WILL REMAIN ON FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING WHEN IT FINALLY RE-REGISTERS THE PASSENGER WEIGHT. THESE TYPES OF SITUATIONS CAN BE CHARACTERIZED IN MULTIPLE WAYS -- CAR TURNS ON AND PASSENGER IS STILL GETTING IN SEAT; PASSENGER SITS DOWN AS THE CAR IS TURNING ON; PASSENGER IS FULLY SEATED BUT SLIGHTLY MOVES DURING THE WEIGHT REGISTRATION; ETC. REGARDLESS OF THE SITUATION, WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE DRIVER CAN DRIVE FOR A NUMBER OF MILES WITH NO AIR BAG UNTIL THE SENSOR RE-REGISTERS THE PASSENGER WEIGHT AND REALIZE AN ADULT IS IN THE SEAT. NISSAN'S PROGRAMMING OF THE AIR-BAG SENSOR IS NOT WITHIN THE FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARDS FOR AIR BAG SAFETY. I REQUEST THAT THE NHTSA PLEASE REVIEW NISSAN'S AIR BAG PROGRAMMING AND VALIDATE SAFETY.

WE HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT WILL BE REPLACED BUT THAT NISSAN IS THE HOLD UP. IT IS EXTREMELY UNFORTUNATE THAT A CAR MANUFACTURING COMPANY CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS AND FORCE CUSTOMER TO WAIT FOR A RESOLUTION WHEN THEY KNOW (AND HAVE KNOWN FOR YEARS) THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. I SINCERELY HOPE THAT THERE WILL BE A PUSH BY OUR GOVERNMENT TO RESOLVE THIS ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND POSSIBLY A VERY LARGE FINE FOR NISSAN'S DECEPTIVE PRACTICES BY DENYING THIS PROBLEM, BASED ON OTHER PEOPLE'S REPORTS WHO HAD REPORTED THIS SAME CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM DATING AS FAR BACK AS 2003 .

purchased 2014 premium platitum nissan pathfinder on 10/9/13. the same evening i noticed the car violently jerking from stop to 35 mph (2000 rpm). i thought it was just a fluke. 4 days later the car did the same thing several times. i immediately took car back to dealership. they claim they could not duplicate issue. 3 days after that, the car violently jerked from stop to 35 mph all morning. i took it back to dealership. they duplicated the issue. said car needs a transmission. i have researched online to determine this is a known issue with nissan. it happens quit frequently with the 2013/2014 cvt transmissions in the pathfinders. check edmunds.com, kbb.com, etc for reviews. the customer reviews all say the same thing. this is a safety hazard because when the car is trying to leave 2nd gear while jerking, it is not picking up speed and can cause someone to run into the back of the car; causing injury or even death. this needs to be looked into immediately and nissan needs to stop production of these transmissions until they can fix the problem. nhtsa please get involved to stop nissan from producing these faulty transmissions and to force them to fix the ones they have sold to innocent purchasers. it's not right that they continue to take innocent people's hard earn money and profit from that, while we are forced to pay to ride in what could be a accident causing vehicle; resulting in injury and/or worse case, death!!! please be proactive. let's save lives before it's too late!

STEERING

i noticed a very high pitched whining/whistling noise when i opened the hood of a 2 day old car. the dealer service department said the power steering fluid was low and had it topped off. the noise reduced very slightly but its still there. they said that the noise was made by the electric assist power steering pump and was at normal levels. i have never seen any of my previous vehicles make such a sound. it feels like whatever part making that sound is due for failure.

i bought a 2014 nissan pathfinder platinum with 9 miles, i drove it home approx. 50 miles and found i was getting i-key system error. dealer instructed me it was the fob programming error, then they inspected the car and told me a transmission switch was defective which prevented the ecm to recognize the car was in drive mode not in neutral or park. within the next 50 miles the check engine light came on with p0850 error. mechanic fixed the issue after several days, not the passenger side airbag (on/off) indicator is intermittent even when an adult over 140lbs is sitting on the passenger seat. sometimes it is not off as required. i think both issues could pose risks to passengers and may cause accidents. i am not a mechanic so i am not sure if the shifter switch has anything to do with the transmission problems directly or indirectly.

please note the following: all 2013 2014 nissan pathfinders have a faulty transmission that shudders, vibrates, jerks, shakes.. when you slowly accelerate or when you come off the highway doing cruise control and then go to bumper to bumper traffic. when the car gets to about 8,000 there is no denying the problem. nissan refuses to recall the car. they continue to ask that you bring the car in.. and they don't have the 1st clue on how to fix it.. their answer is to give you another transmission and claim the problem is fixed. i had a 2013 the bought back the car and gave me a 2014 and guess what the car is still a piece of garbage. and now they refuse to acknowledge the defect the 2014 has. stay away!!!!!!!

accelerating from stoplight across highway when transmission begins to violently shake the entire vehicle. released accelerator pedal to stop violent shaking. reapplied pressure to accelerator pedal to keep vehicle behind us from smashing our vehicle. this exact same scenario has occurred over and over again in the last 4200 miles. this exact violent shaking (juddering) has also occurred when accelerating onto the highway. nissan corporation is fully aware of this issue and refused to fix my vehicle. the pathfinder transmission has a design defect that is a serious safety issue.

purchased two 2014 nissan pathfinders on october 2013 from sheehy nissan of annapolis. after 1500 miles on one of them started hearing a noise from the left driver's side area only when going over 55mph. took to dealership tech heard the same problem but was not sure what was causing the noise. after a week pasted someone from nissan came down to look at the truck at this point i told dealer i no longer wanted truck and that i would like another new vehicle in its place and did not mind paying a few dollars more for and upgraded model. so the gm came back with some good numbers and off the lot i went with another brand new 2014 fully loaded pathfinder on march 8th 2014 i started feeling this very hard shuddering when driving 0-20mph i thought it would stop but it just got worst so on march 10th 2014 i dropped truck off at the dealership for service and tech was able to hear and feel what i felt and they placed a called to nissan which advised them to replace the transmission and that it would take a week. when i went to pick up the truck on friday march 14th 2014 they pulled it into the bay i got in the drivers set started the truck and right away i noticed that the steering wheel did not go down only up and down. i called the service rep over and advised him what was going on and he called his manager over and they both shook their heads and said you are really having a tuff time with these pathfinders and said what do you want to do drive it over the weekend to test out the new transmission or leave it here? so i told him leave it here and that this was crazy he said he agrees and that he would call nissan monday and let them know that now the now the steering wheel has problems.

STRUCTURE:BODY

i have a serious vibration problem with the hood on my 2014 pathfinder - the problem occurs at about 55 mph - the front side of the hood shakes during normal driving and becomes violent when a semi is coming towards me on a 2 lane rd - nissan has had 2 engineers look at this car and they have also installed larger weatherstrips on the frt side of the hood - these strips have tamed the vibration down however the vibration is enough to cause cups in the cup holder to rattle. being an insurance adjuster for over 20 years i understand the reasons manufacturers use aluminum hoods however safety should not be reduced for fuel economy - per glen nakagawa with nissan they have designed a new hood for 2015 to hopefully correct the problem for most owners - my problem is not just with vibration on the front side of the hood but with the hood lifting above the fenders at the hinges when a semi approaches me - the stress that is being placed on steel hinges attached to an aluminum hood is incredible and i feel that it is a matter of time until one or the other fails potentially causing a fatal accident - i should not be in fear while driving a brand new 46000 dollar vehicle - nissan is going through the motions and has stated they may purchase the vehicle back, however now they are completely ignoring all phone calls and emails - having researched this issue on line and hearing nissans own words it is obvious that something needs to be done

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

i am having problems with the cruise control on my new nissan pathfinder 2014. 1. cruise control intermittently disengages going down a shallow but straight road. in a 3 to 4 mile driving stretch, it will, at times, disengage 2 to 3 times. 2. the ¿¿set¿ and â¿¿resume¿ toggle switch at times then does not re-engage the cruise control. the switch acts dead. i then have to switch off the cruise control and then switch it back on to have the toggles switch work but not always. 3. the cruise and set indicators on the instrument panel do not flicker. the nissan dealer carried out a test run and found the cruise control disengaging exactly as stated above. they replaced part #25550-3ks1a, switch assembly-ste, to resolve the problem but it did not. they reiterate that such a condition of cruise disengagement as stated in the ownerâ¿¿s manual is considered normal and acceptable. having read the ownerâ¿¿s manual, i do not find any mention of the toggle switch intermittently acting dead after disengagement of the cruise control nor the high frequency of the disengagement. this condition is causing me to concentrate more on the instrument panel rather than on the road. i am repeatedly unsure whether the cruise is engaged or not. this distraction could result in a fatal accident. it'¿¿s like texting while driving. either way, the end result would be an avoidable fatality(s).this condition clearly amounts to a road safety hazard. the manufacturer, by merely stating that the cruise may disengage driving down in hilly terrain cannot absolve itself of the responsibility for the safety of the occupants of the car. such high frequency of cruise disengagement and toggle switch failure cannot be considered normal. more than likely a software design problem.

the air bag light issue on the nissan pathfinder continues to be an issue for me. i have brought the car in to the service center in excess of 5 times over the course that i have had the car (purchased in october 2013) for the air bag light issue. when a passenger sits in the seat, the air bag off light may stay on during the course of the drive, indicating that the air bag is turned off. this does not happen every time a passenger is in the seat and only at random times. the service center has updated the system programming in accordance with the nissan pathfinder recall against the airbag issue. the service center has also replaced the air bag sensor. over the course of time, none of these "fixes" have resolved the issue. i have come to find that it may be a programming issue with the air bag -- if a passenger is not fully seated and still at the moment the car is turned on, the sensor will not properly register the passenger weight. typically, when the weight is undetermined or cannot be immediately read, the car will keep the air bag off light on assuming that it falls outside of the "adult weight" category. the light will remain on for at least another 10 minutes of driving when it finally re-registers the passenger weight. these types of situations can be characterized in multiple ways -- car turns on and passenger is still getting in seat; passenger sits down as the car is turning on; passenger is fully seated but slightly moves during the weight registration; etc. regardless of the situation, when this happens, the driver can drive for a number of miles with no air bag until the sensor re-registers the passenger weight and realize an adult is in the seat. nissan's programming of the air-bag sensor is not within the federal motor vehicle safety standards for air bag safety. i request that the nhtsa please review nissan's air bag programming and validate safety.

we have a 2014 nissan pathfinder sl, with 3551 miles on it. we purchased it used on 8-6-2014 with approximately 2240 miles on it, we are the second owner. on 8-20-2014, while attempting to access an interstate from an on-ramp we experienced a shutter and strong shaking of our 2014 nissan pathfinder sl, at that time it had approximately 3336 miles on it. we were forced to pull over, almost causing an accident. we turned the car off and restarted it to continue on the interstate but did not experience another incident that day. the following six days the car began doing the same thing but it would usually be several times a day. i did research on the transmission and found that the cvt transmission is rife with problems. we took the car to the local dealership (not where we purchased it) and they ran a dynamometer diagnostics on the car and said that the transmission would need to be replaced. as we were discussing this issue the tech mentioned that the records showed the transmission in this car had already been replaced once before, at approximately 2000 miles. also, i was informed by the dealership, who is going to replace the transmission, that they have been unable to get through to the nissan "cvt hotline" to report the problem and arrange for a new transmission. we have been told by the dealership that it will be replaced but that nissan is the hold up. it is extremely unfortunate that a car manufacturing company can get away with this and force customer to wait for a resolution when they know (and have known for years) that there is a problem. i sincerely hope that there will be a push by our government to resolve this ongoing problem with nissan and possibly a very large fine for nissan's deceptive practices by denying this problem, based on other people's reports who had reported this same cvt transmission problem dating as far back as 2003 .

i called nissan in june to report that my car was shaking and trembling at times while driving. it happens while coasting, accelerating and braking. i brought it in and was told it needed a transmission update. 2 weeks later the problem returned. at times i need to turn the car off and restart it to get the shaking to stop. when i looked online this is a huge problem. over 29000 already are "lemons". i brought it back and was told they could not duplicate the problem. then brought it back and was told there was a new update (1 day later). i called nissan corporate and they were looking into buying the car. they then put in a new transmission as i had refused to pick up the car. they put it in the day they called to say it would be done tomorrow so when i called to ask them not to, it was already being done. now nissan will not buy the car as it has a new transmission. there are reports of having 3 new transmissions and the problem continues. cars are breaking down. nissan is ignoring the problem. i was told in 2-3 weeks they will call and if the car is ok they will offer a settlement. why a settlement if the car is ok unless they realize it is a problem? the fact that this is a continuation from 2013 problem, and the cars are continuing to be sold while nissan ignores the problem puts people in danger. cars are overheating and breaking down in the middle of the highway. someone needs to hold nissan accountable and put people first. i stated to corporate i should not have to be a test dummy for 2-3 weeks and put my life and others on the road in danger. no one at nissan will acknowledge that this is an ongoing issue for more than just myself. please advise.
