| 2006 | SERVICE BRAKES | I WAS ROLLING INTO A SPOT OFF THE PAVED ROAD ON TO A GRAVELED SPACE (PINE NEEDLES, ROCKS AND DIRT) IN ORDER TO MAKE A THREE POINT TURN. BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I JAMMED ON THE BRAKES BUT THE CAR KEPT ROLLING DOWN SLOWLY AND I CRASHED INTO A TREE. MY AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND I SUFFERED SOME MINOR BURNS AND BRUISING. THE VEHICLE SUFFERED MINOR BUMPER DAMAGE BUT WHY DID MY AIRBAGS DEPLOY AT ONLY 8 MILES PER HOUR. I AM AT A LOSS THAT THIS HAPPENED. I JUST ADDED NEW BRAKES THE WEEK BEFORE. BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES. *TR |
| 2006 | POWER TRAIN | OUR 2006 PATHFINDER HAD STARTED SHUTTERING IN THE TRANSMISSION ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE IT JUST GAVE OUT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOP, WHO TOLD ME THAT THE RADIATOR FLUID HAD GOTTEN INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND RUINED IT. I DID SOME CHECKING ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN HAS KNOWN THIS WAS A PROBLEM AND HAS NOT SENT ANY NOTICES OR RECALLS. I ALSO HAD ANOTHER PROBLEM RECENTLY WITH THE ECM RELAY, THAT LEFT IT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER RESEARCH FOUND THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED AND NO NOTICE WAS SENT OUT. I WAS THANKFUL THAT NISSAN REPLACED THE RELAY. WE HAVE CALL NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION, BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE THEY WILL HELP DUE TO THE MILEAGE. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED WHEN IT WAS DISCOVERED WITH A NEW RADIATOR AND A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION SERVICE. *TR |
