"Purchased this vehicle new a few days ago, Dispite all the negativity against the vehicle its never really looked at for what it is. SUV built on the Armada/Titan Truck frame so it is a rugged stiff ride. Body has had little change since 2005 (but has sold relatively well) 3rd Row seats are helpful with small children, Seats 4 adults confortably and 2 car seats in the 3rd row. Excellent towing capability. Ground clearance and ride hight is ideal. Easy fold-a-way seating in the 2nd and 3rd rows. The only downfall on this vehicle is the MPG. According to fuelly, majority of owners are recieving 18mpg (combined) but not everyone is light footed so this is decent from the EPA 14/20 sticker rating. Veryy happy with the vehicle, a NICE upgrade from our 05 FX35 End of the year savings with almost $9k off the truck made it an ideal purchase."

"Purchased a new 2012 Nissan Pathfinder S from Ingram Park Nissan, San Antonio. Their advertised price on that vin specific model was $22,994 on Cars.com . The dealer salesman's manager concentrated on the monthly payment, and sold me the Pathfinder for about $25,500 not counting taxes nor any kind of service contract. Then the finance person on the back told me that they were not making money on the deal, which they were and sold me a service cont. and GAP adding another $2800 to the bill. Needless to say I cancelled those two things. However, I still paid about $2500 more than the advertised price."

"We purchaes our new 2012 Pathfinder on May 28th, 2012. After driving the vehicle for 1500 miles, the idle is high and the steering wheel vibrates anytime I am stopped at a red light or stop sign. After Nissan having my vehicle for a week, all they can tell me is that this is normal and there is no fix. This new pathfinder did not do this off the lot or the first 1500 miles and they can't explain that either. Not a Happy Customer"
