  VIN: [XXX] Vehicle: 2024 Nissan Pathfinder Defect Description: The vehicle is experiencing a critical safety defect in its Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) system, causing unprompted, aggressive application of the rear brakes. Safety Risk: The aggressive, automatic braking occurs without driver input or obstruction, creating an immediate crash risk due to sudden, unpredictable deceleration in traffic. Resulting Damage: This electronic malfunction has caused extreme, rapid, and uneven wear on the rear brake pads (measured at 2mm) while the front pads remain "like new." Manufacturer Response: Both the dealership and Nissan Consumer Affairs refuse to perform a warranty diagnostic on the electronic system. They insist on classifying this safety defect as simple, customer-paid "wear and tear," thereby avoiding the investigation of the underlying electronic malfunction. Request: I request the NHTSA open an investigation into the 2024 Nissan Pathfinder's EBD system for systemic failure resulting in unsafe, unprompted braking events and premature, dangerous brake failure.

After replacing the sensor, the lights came on within minutes of me leaving the dealership. The vehicle is at the dealership currently. With the recent engine replacement and returning within five days for the second issue twice is a safety risk given that the vehicle can brake at any minute while driving which can cause catatrophic danger to me and/or others. The service techs are not sure what is going on with the vehicle. No other issues occured prior to the engine replacement (October 9, 2025 - November 3, 2025 at the dealership) and now the malfunction of the sensors (November 7 - current) twice within days.

  The engine failed due to coolant infiltration, which caused catastrophic damage and required a full engine replacement. The failed engine remains at Conyers Nissan and is available for inspection upon request. When the vehicle finally started, thick white smoke poured from the exhaust while it was in my garage with the garage door raised. I immediately removed my child from the vehicle and moved it outside to avoid potential fire or toxic fume exposure. The sudden failure created a serious safety risk to both myself and my child. . After failed multiple phone check-ins then finally going to Conyers Nissan, the shop foreman confirmed the problem on October 13, 2025, and determined that the engine must be replaced. To my knowledge, the vehicle has not yet been inspected by Nissan Corporate, insurance representatives, or law enforcement. There were no dashboard warning lamps, error messages, or prior symptoms before the failure. The vehicle had been operating normally until October 9, 2025, when it suddenly became difficult to start and then emitted smoke. All maintenance has been completed according to Nissan guidelines. The incident occurred on October 9, 2025, when the vehicle had 35,855 miles. It has remained at the dealership since that date. Despite the proposed engine replacement and any other associated component, I no longer feel safe operating this vehicle, particularly with my child onboard, due to the severity and suddenness of the failure. I sent an email to Nissan Consumer Affairs (case# 55923865) requesting that Nissan repurchase the vehicle due to this serious safety concern. The dealership stated they cannot give me an inspection report until the repairs are done. However on the status link that is sent via text to check on the vehicle, the inspection shows complete.

  While merging onto the parkway, the gas pedal snapped off during acceleration. There was no warning at all, it just snapped off when I stepped on the pedal. I was fortunate enough to pull over onto the shoulder of the parkway without incident, but I had no way to accelerate the car if I needed to. I was very lucky that nothing happened, but I'm very concerned about driving this vehicle and the potential danger it poses to myself and others if this happens again. I believe this is a serious issue and should be looked into with urgency. I've attached pictures of where the pedal snapped off. It appears to be a cheaply made piece of plastic that completely broke off. There is another picture with the pedal intact and circled in red, you can see an indentation towards the top of the pedal. This is where I believe the pedal broke off from.

  The collision warning deactivated the vehicles cruise control and slowed the vehilce down at highway speeds. Traveling at 80mph speed limit and cruise disengaged and as a result the traffic to the rear of the vehicle came very close. There were two vehicles behind my vehicle and it was too close for comfort. The event occurred in North Dakota on Interstate with no forward traffic.

  Issue with 360 around view monitor. Picture quality for the 4 cameras at night is very poor. Backing up at night is quite challenging as the picture from the cameras are very fuzzy. If something comes from behind like an animal or a child, it is very difficult to see them. The whole purpose of the backup cameras is to increase safety when backing up. Unfortunately I’ve address this issue with two Nissan dealers and was told that this is normal as designed feature. I had several Nissans before and the picture quality was fantastic, until the 2024 Nissan pathfinder. I hope that someone will start the investigation and address this safety issue.

• 09/06/2024· VISIBILITY/WIPER

  Since I purchased the 2024 Nissan pathfinder in October 2023 I have had multiple issues with the glass windshield and visibility issues. The problem normally occurs when it rains and a white film comes on the windshield making it sometimes impossible to see while driving the vehicle. The problem gets worse at night if its raining because the glare from the light makes it impossible to see anything while driving. On two occasions while driving the car while raining especially at night I have almost ran off the road because the white film on the windshield was so blurry I couldn't see. I have taken the car back to several Nissan dealers who replaced windshield wipers. The problem has still continued after replacing three sets of windshield wipers blades. The windshield has been washed with Windex and film remover and film still remains. I took the car to Coggin Nissan where it was inspected by service adviser and glass rep. The glass rep stated that it was a after market windshield and not the normal Nissan genuine part. The service advisor stated that all he saw was calcium build up from hard water. In addition there also seems to be an issue with the defrost system not working when this film on the windshield appears. This is a serious safety issue that can cause me to get into a serious accident that could injure myself or others.

• 09/02/2026· SERVICE BRAKES

  I am submitting this complaint regarding a safety concern involving my 2024 Nissan Pathfinder, which has approximately 19,000 miles on the vehicle. The rear brake pads were found to be excessively worn and required replacement at only 19,000 miles. I consider this premature brake-pad wear to be a significant safety concern given the relatively low mileage and age of the vehicle. The braking system is a critical safety component, and I would not expect the rear brake pads on a relatively new 2024 vehicle with only 19,000 miles to require replacement due to excessive wear. Premature or abnormal brake-pad wear could potentially reduce braking performance, increase stopping distances, cause uneven braking, damage other brake components, or create an unsafe condition if the driver is unaware of the extent of the wear. I am concerned that this may not be an isolated maintenance issue but could potentially indicate a defect or problem with the vehicle's braking system, including the rear brake components, brake calipers, electronic parking brake system, or another component that may be causing abnormal or accelerated brake-pad wear. I am requesting that this complaint be documented and investigated to determine whether other 2024 Nissan Pathfinder owners have experienced similar premature rear brake-pad wear and whether there is a defect or safety-related issue affecting the rear braking system. Vehicle: 2024 Nissan Pathfinder Mileage: Approximately 19,000 miles Safety Component: Rear braking system/rear brake pads Issue: Premature/excessive rear brake-pad wear requiring replacement at approximately 19,000 miles. I believe this issue warrants investigation because brake-system reliability is directly related to vehicle safety, and premature wear at such low mileage is concerning for a relatively new vehicle.

  The seatbelt system, including the computerized imaging alerts on the dashboard, seatbelt warning tone notification, and possibly the seat sensors of the vehicle have been failing and continue to malfunction. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. This malfunction alerts and states that passengers are not buckled in the backseats when nobody is in the vehicle but the driver. This malfunction also alerts and states that passengers are not buckled in the backseats when they are this malfunction occurs randomly while driving the vehicle. It was initially brought in for this concern the first week of August 2025 and the local Nissan service techs replaced the seatbelts in 2 of the back seats. Unfortunately, this did not resolve this issue and has been documented with video evidence on multiple occasions. My children are frequent passengers in the backseats of this vehicle and I have safety concerns that should an accident occur, the seatbelts malfunction and are not actually keeping my children safe as expected with a seatbelt. The most recent visit to Nissan services for this problem was on 08/18/2025 to 08/20/2025 where the techs stated the problem could not be reproduced and that all I can continue to do is keep driving the vehicle and take videos of the incidents. Using a phone while driving sounds like a safety concern to me, as well. The vehicle has only been seen, with multiple appointments, at the local Halliday Nissan Service Department. Prior to the original problem the first week of August 2025, these issues first appeared around the end of June, early July 2025. There are warning lamps, signals, and notification noises associated with this issue. I have video documentation, service documentation, recordings, text messages, voicemails as proof of documentation.

• 08/08/2024· EXTERIOR LIGHTING

  Upon purchasing the vehicle, the headlights are not bright enough. There are several threads on reddit talking about this issue. Some people say they are fine, but others are reporting that they have almost hit curbs and other items due to the lack of density. The coverage is far and wide, but the visible light in all conditions is horrible. I had a previous 2021 Nissan Murano with LED headlights and they blew this out of the water. Same for a 2021 Nissan Rogue. The rating on the headlights is not "Good" but "Acceptable." These are unsafe! In snowy weather I could not see the road. I have had to purchase aftermarket lights to supplement the headlights as trading in the vehicle is not financially feasible for us. This needs to be investigated! The dealer is saying they are aimed properly but that Nissan has cut the brightness. This is unsafe! There are a lot of dark areas in the lights. In the photo I have uploaded, my vehicle is aimed down (driveway down on the angled curb) to show the gaps in lighting, so it appears brighter than it actually is). There are a lot of dark spots, etc. too.

  5x my Suv in drive popped either out of gear or just would not shift into the next gear. My main concern is i was coming up a hill into a 4 land highway (route 6 and my car would not shift the transmission was whining loud?. I had to shut my car off in the middle of 4 lanes with oncoming traffic to put it in park to get it to shift back into drive to get out of harms way. This happened 4 more times where I had to just stop where i was to put car in park and try it again in drive, which usually fixes it except for 1x would not take off at all. When whines its almost as if the car transmission would blow. No one can recreate this issue so i am stuck with the car that does it randomly. Example bought it new Feb 2025 it is now August & happened 5 times. Hoping they do a recall or sometype of fix I do like my Suv & would like to keep it.

• 07/16/2026· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VISIBILITY/WIPER

  The defect involves the outside side mirrors and the reverse-tilt function. When the vehicle is shifted into Reverse, a mirror normally tilts downward as designed. However, after shifting back into Drive or Park, the mirror intermittently fails to return to its previously stored driving position. Sometimes it returns correctly, sometimes it returns only partway, and sometimes it does not return at all. When the failure occurs, the mirror remains pointed downward and significantly reduces rearward and adjacent-lane visibility until I manually readjust it. This creates a safety risk because the mirror may appear to have returned to its normal position when it has not, leaving the driver with impaired visibility after completing a reverse maneuver. The problem is intermittent and has been reported to and evaluated by Nissan dealerships. The vehicle and mirror system remain available for inspection upon request. There are no warning lamps or dashboard messages associated with the failure. The primary symptom is the mirror’s failure to consistently return to its stored driving position. Because of the inconsistent operation, I have disabled the reverse-tilt feature to prevent the mirror from unexpectedly remaining in an unsafe downward position. However, disabling the feature eliminates the additional downward visibility Nissan designed it to provide while reversing. This is not a satisfactory resolution. I am forced to choose between the risk of impaired rearward visibility after reversing and the loss of the enhanced visibility intended to assist during reverse maneuvers. The system does not operate as designed and creates an avoidable visibility and safety concern.

  Since we purchased the vehicle we noticed that power outlet would not work. We have taken this vehicle back to the dealership and even though they "fix it" as soon as we drive it out within in one or two hours it will give out again. The last time we took it they said not to use "off the market" cellphone chargers because that is what is making it not work. Then the AC has also stopped working a couple of times. All of sudden the truck will blow out hot instead of cold air. We have to stop the vehicle, turn it off and let it rest and then the AC will be back up. They have supposedly looked into it. Lastly, this vehicle has on several occasions not accelerated while we are on the road. Even though the speed limit is 75mph it will not move faster than 40mph. At the same time the service lights on the dashboard begin to turn on/off. It has been very difficult because the last time we took the vehicle to the shop it was in there for more than 30 days. I am very concerned that although they say the "fix it" the vehicle can stop running on me and I can have a serious accident with my family in inside.

  There are 2 antifreeze lines going to the back of the vehicle, they are to cool the 3rd row seats using air conditioning. Both lines were incorrectly designed so they have a repetitive failure rate of 100%. Both lines failed in March of 2025 and were replaced by Serra Nissan of Traverse City, MI. Both lines failed again and were confirmed by the dealer yesterday on 7-1-26. The first failure occurred at 8,401 miles. The second failure at 16,742. Anti freeze is spraying on the brakes of the rear passenger area, a major safety issue. Nissan does not want to spend the money to redesign the failed part design so they reinstall the same failed antifreeze lines with every repair. There is a 5 MONTH WAIT for new parts to arrive due to the massive quantity of failures. No warning lights appear during these repetitive failures. The failures are visible, you can see the antifreeze leaks all around the rear brake. And the air conditioning stops functioning in the car. Serra Nissan is very upset that Nissan Inc. is refusing to correct the failed design of the part. So the failures will occur forever.

  when stoped at a stoplight the engine shuts off. when you take your foot off the brake and move to the accelerator, the transmission shifts to neutral. This is very dangerous because it's the last thing you expect and when your on a step hill and rolling backwards it takes a moment to act.

  I am reporting premature and abnormal tire wear on two consecutive Nissan Pathfinder vehicles (2022 and 2024 models). In both cases, tires required replacement at low mileage (approximately 20,000–25,000 miles) despite normal driving and proper maintenance. My 2022 Pathfinder also experienced brake-related issues, which raises additional concern about potential underlying defects. The repeated pattern across multiple vehicles suggests a possible defect involving alignment, suspension, or braking systems. Premature tire wear presents a safety concern, as it can reduce traction, increase stopping distance, and raise the risk of tire failure or blowout, particularly at highway speeds. A Nissan dealership has confirmed the abnormal tire wear and recommended replacement, and previously acknowledged there may be known issues contributing to this condition. However, the issue continues to be classified as “normal wear and tear,” and no corrective action has been taken. There were no warning lights or messages prior to the issue; it was identified during routine service inspection. The vehicle and affected components are available for inspection upon request. I am requesting an investigation into whether Nissan Pathfinder vehicles have a defect contributing to premature tire wear and associated safety risks.

  Hi ! I just purchased the 2024 Nissan pathfinder SL on March 13th , 2026 . Three days later I noticed a slight vibration to the car . I was told it was the mount they’d replace both mounts . Get the car from getting the mounts replaced , & when I went to leave with the “ repaired “ the car sounded horrible while in Reverse. It was a loud sound more than just a vibration. I immediately went into the dealer and they said they’d replace the other two mounts . Fast forward to that appointment, I get a call it needs a new motor . I’m not sure the mileage on the vehicle but it’s less than 46k . The mechanic shop in Macon , Ga has had the car two weeks. They replaced the mount close to the transmission with a OM mount , said the previous one was a defective mount . Now they have no clue what is wrong with the car . This car is so “ new “ to be having these issues. So now I’m waiting to hear what the next steps are on this car . Such a beautiful vehicle truly ! I just don’t know if this mount / transmission is going cause me issues nonstop within the car .

  Issues with alternator, oil leakage, and currently the transmission. After sitting idle for 10 to 15 minutes transmission will not shift out of first gear. It has become dangerous to drive the vehicle due to not being able to properly accelerate resulting in the possibility of being hit if driver pulls into traffic. The vehicle has been taken to local Nissan dealership several times without the issue being resolved. Currently, the dealership has had the vehicle for over 30 days and still has no solution for fixing the issue. Vehicle has less than 13,000 miles on it. When the transmission problem began the vehicle had less than 8,000 miles on it. Other issues with the vehicle began when vehicle was only a few months old and had less than 4,000 miles.

• 05/12/2026· SERVICE BRAKES

  My Pathfinder has 19798 miles and I was informed that the brake pads are 3mm or less need replaced and the rotor resurfaced. The front brakes are at 7mm at the same mileage. I do not tow anything and use for city and highway driving. My complaint is that at this rate I will have to change my rear brakes twice as often and have them inspected more often. The cost for brake replacement at twice the rate of front brakes is 2x. I am concerned that there is a design flaw that can lead to rear brakes failing if I do not have them inspected twice as often as the front brake wear. Typically the front brakes handle 60-70% of the breaking force due to weight transfer. If the rear brake pads are wearing out before the front brake pads, and the rotors need resurfaced it seems that heat buildup due to increased brake wear is affecting the rotors. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The instrument cluster which displays the RPMs, miles, gas gauge, vehicle temperature, speedometer and other pertinent information while operating the vehicle has started to go out. If the entire panel goes completely out there is no way to see any of this information which could also lead to odometer fraud as well as other notifications that are displayed on there going unnoticed. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership to see what would need to be done. They stated the entire instrument cluster would need to be replaced. I feel like this should not already be happening on a not even 2 year old car. There was no warning or any other symptoms of the problem prior to this happening in February of 2026. The cost to replace the entire panel would be over $1200 and after speaking with one of the service technicians at the dealership he stated that this was not the first vehicle he has had in with the same issue. Nissan needs to address this issue because if you can't even get a new vehicle to last 2 years or 45,000 miles before it has a malfunction like this then what are we doing.

  Hello, My name is [XXX] . I need your help!! I bought a 2024 Nissan Pathfinder from Carvana for $41,000.00 at the end of November 2025 I reported some minor damage at the time we picked up the vehicle at Caravan [XXX] . Never heard back. I've only owned this car for 4 months and now the brakes have been screaming and my dashboard is lit up like a Christmas tree!!! All the tires are bald and the air conditioner does not work!!. Ughhh. I was on the phone with Carvana this morning for almost 2 hours.. And ultimately there nothing they can do for me. One the 7 days of course is over the 100 day coverage is gone. I purchased xtra coverage but of course that doesn't cover anything that is wrong with the car... The car has been towed to a shop.. Waiting to hear what the bill is gonna be Yikesss!! HELP!!! I FEEL I HAVE BEEN SOLD A LEMON!! I'm not asking for anything just to repair this vehicle as it should have been before I bought. Selling a vehicle that is less than 2 years old in this condition is not good business practices. This is not right. Hope you can help Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

  The rear brakes, especially the one on the passenger side, are worn out. I took it to the dealer and they tell me that it is normal, something that is not true

  Our brakes are making a sound & rough when braking. The dealership has not evidently inspected as should until today, when we told them to look at. Now they say our rear brakes need replacing, they are at a 1 & need attention immediately. Front brakes are good at a 6. We questioned them with 60,303 & we have NEVER towed anything why the rear & not front, no explanation. I see in recalls/complaints where there are other 2024 Pathfinder owners with same/similar complaints: [XXX] ; [XXX] ; [XXX] .
