A great SUV

This car checked all the boxes for comfort and style. Plenty of leg room from front to back. Lumbar support and several usb ports are a plus. Driving it is especially great in high traffic and rain. I love it!

I wouldn’t buy it again

I third row is very small. The trunk is also too small when the third row is up. There is a significant blind spot on the driver’s side windshield frame. I have had too many close calls.

Great car just slightly small

I had a Pathfinder years ago and loved it. So when it came time for a new car I went and test drove it. It had all the bells and whistles even heated second row seats! Great ride, smooth, easy to handle. Only issue was the interior size. Smaller than my current traverse I just couldn't go down in size since I now have two kids. Otherwise I would have loved this car!!!

Been a headache

As far as looks go I love it... but that's where it ends. I have been dealing with CONSTANT issues with the infotainment/ electrical system. The radio, navigation, Heat/ac, etc are all run through this system. I have been dealing with almost daily freezing up of the system which disables the buttons as well, as well as random times of certain features or controls not working, (i.e. Bluetooth, tuning buttons) beeps and changing screens, heating system shutting off by itself, driver side seat getting hot when the heated seat feature is not on, stored radio stations disappearing and then returning later that day...the list goes on. Of course the dealership always says the issues "couldn't be duplicated". I have videos and pictures which I offered but they weren't "needed." My advice... go for a Toyota Highlander!

The most outdated car in 2019 and pricey

This car was bad to drive esp with that CVT gear very slow response, I have to really floored it ... and the center console doesn't even connected to android , not to mention hand brake using the leg (so occurred) how outdated it is ??? The third row sit when up is block 90% from rear vision mirror. NOT VALUE FOR MONEY LEMON CAR

Smooth ride

It's so much bigger than my previous vehicle. Smooth ride, tons of technology. We're planning on taking a road trip this summer so this vehicle will definitely come in handy.

Newest and nicest car I've owned

This car literally met all of the needs of the house, 4wd 3 rows, new, and only 15k miles on it . So not only do my 2 kids fit in it but i have room for the other family that regularly travels with us.

nice vehicle but rear brakes are undersized

I really liked the car, however, after 23,000 miles, my rear brake pads were shot. Mechanic told me rear pads are same as Altima (much lighter car). I can’t imagine how quickly the pads will wear when I start towing. Issue is serious enough that I may want to swap Pathfinder for something with better brakes which is a shame as I really like Nissan. To the Nissan design team - “copy / paste” is not always the best design practice. I am 64 years old with a lot of different vehicles under my belt and none of them wore brakes out this quickly. This is a design issue that needs to be fixed. A tow capability of 6000 pounds isn’t much good if the vehicle has trouble stopping.
