2023 Nissan Pathfinder consumer reviews

I love my Pathfinder except when the transmission locks up with a high-pitched noise. I have to turn off and restart the engine to drive.

It was AMAZING, I just remember the first time i sat in this thing and it was like LEATHER SEATS AND STUFF! It was SOOOOOO comfortable like a LEATHER SEAT! it also smelled like leather 100/10 i'd give this one i'd give it more than 6 stars if i could but i cant unfortunately :( but that leather is bussin fr! :) glad to actually be a part of this community :)

I bought this truck because it looked amazing. It has highly let me down with its faulty infotainment system that shuts down and reboots as you are driving. The BIGGEST disappointment is Nissan. They won’t replace unless I can “record it while driving”. The Nissan on route 23 in Butler has told me 2 times that I need a new system but Nissan motors won’t approve unless they have a video. The service Manager Craig also lied to the corporate person handling my case and said we spoke when we never did. Highly disappointed in Nissan and although the pathfinder looks attractive, beware as it has glitches and the transmission seems like it could have some issues as well.

This is a beautiful car; powerful, rides well, handles well in snow many conveniences; My only complaint is without warning, with the engine running, the cars brakes will lock up, usually at an intersection. When that happens, you have to shut the car off and wait a couple of minutes; with your foot firmly on the brake, the car usually starts and you can continue driving; which isn't a big deal if you are in your driveway. If you are in the middle of a city intersection at 5:00 traffic its an unsettling experience. I called corporate; they referred me to the dealer, I did return the car to the local Nissan dealer I purchased the car from for advice; they couldn't duplicate the problem. This happens to myself or my wife a least once or twice a week. I bought the first car of this model year to arrive and purchased from a local Nissan dealer. (2023 Pathfinder) (current 20,000 miles)

I bought the 2023 Nissan Pathfinder after being convinced by a Nissan employee who happens to be my friend. He said I should give Nissan a try when I was going for Toyota Highlander. At just 3000 miles, the car has already visited the dealer for repairs two times. Plus a number of electrical issues. My blind spot warning light on the right driving mirrors turns on and off when I’m driving and there’s no car behind me. It stays on and sometimes begins to blink with absolutely no car behind me. It happens even in the woods where I’m the only driver on the road. Every now and then the vehicle acts strangely when driving and then comes back to normal. It cost me $55,000 total including taxes and fees to get that Nissan 2023 platinum now I’m stuck with a huge mess and frustration. I totally regret listening to my friend to buy a Nissan.

Bought my 23 Pathfinder Platinum in December of 22 she has 16 k on her and I'm extremely pleased with this overall package. Highly recommend buying one.

I have owned a 2022 and 2033 Pathfinder Platinum, and it seems that both have the same exact issues. The remote start either by remote or the app is not reliable. It just fails to start the vehicle. This happens weather it is raining, snowing, sunny or sitting in the garage. The power folding mirror seem to have a mind of their own. Driving and sometimes the drivers mirror folds in and then opens again and it will do this 3-4 times. Many times, they do not even unfold you have to do it manually. Sporadically when you go and grab the door handle to open it the keypad behind the handle does not work. When you go to pass someone and step on the gas the vehicle takes far too long to downshift and take off. The rocker switches for the windows are not optimal. Sometimes you have to push them several times to get them to either roll up/down. Several times the main monitor just turns off and back on. Had both vehicles into the dealership and they of course tell you "if we don't see it then it doesn't happen". Nissan needs to put in thigh extension for the front seats, they lack thigh support. I recommend they increase the Navi monitor to a larger size and that a rear mirror camera comes on the vehicle. Making the vehicle rear drive would be optimal in so many ways.

I bought a 2023 Rock Creek Pathfinder and absolutely love it. It is a comfortable highway cruiser and I routinely get 24-26 mpg even combined. I am the most impressed with its off road capability-yes I wish it had skid plates rather than “underbody cladding” and more ground clearance but the 4x4i is very capable and the camera system is great. I have climbed up some very rough trails in Conrad Weiser State Forest (PA) with no issue-the brake based torque vectoring is extremely effective and combined with the tires this vehicles will go places most crossovers won’t. The roof rack is also great and to the contrary of some other reviews I have seen, I have had zero issue with finding racks that fit (Thule Canyon fits great, as do Kuat Kayak Racks). I also enjoy the towing capacity of 6k lbs. My only complaints are the steering assist is a little intrusive and the base stereo is adequate at best; it could also use a heated steering wheel. Minors complaints and overall this is a fantastic SUV for those of us who haul the family around but legitimately like to drive some light trails and get to the fishing hole or trailhead. It looks great too. Bravo Nissan!

I went from a Corvette to a 2023 Pathfinder Platinum, so I can't rate it highly on performance - I know what scary good performance feels like. That being said, I love this SUV. It's the nicest vehicle I have ever owned, and it is so quiet and comfortable, which is why I'm still giving it 5 stars instead of 4. I was in need of 4WD because of a family member's health problems, so I need to get places in snowy weather quickly. I was able to afford the platinum because the 2024s had just arrived and the 2023s were marked way down. If you're looking for an SUV, I highly recommend the Pathfinder, especially if you can afford the platinum addition (the Vette was old and used, which is how I could afford it). I love all the tech and it feels like I'm driving a super comfy armchair. It's a beautiful, capable SUV, and I have zero buyer's remorse.

We have owned a lot of SUV’s and this 2023 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum edition is the best in all categories and the best all round family vehicle ever!
