The battery would not stay locked in place and this seemed to impact the mileage starting over and did not keep accurate amount of gas in vehicle. My transmission was going out; felt as if something was being dragged while driving. I have had to purchase tires twice since buying the vehicle even with getting rotations every other oil change.
The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder. While the accelerator pedal was depressed and driving at low speeds, the steering wheel jerked until the accelerator pedal was released. The contact stated that he felt a vibration and a rattling noise was heard from the steering wheel. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to bommarito Nissan West (14747 manchester rd, ballwin, mo 63011, (636) 394-0330) where it was diagnosed that the vehicle needed new tires and brake pads. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that someone would contact him. No further assistance was offered. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder. The contact stated that the front and rear wheels made an abnormal noise. Also, the rear tires were prematurely worn. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for a front and rear alignment, but the failure continued. The suspension was unstable in the front and rear of the vehicle. The vehicle was also taken to two other independent repair shops for further diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.
The tires wore very quickly on the back. I took the car to dealer where it was purchased. I only had the vehicle for 5-6 months when I first noticed how badly the tread had worn down. The front tires are worn very badly and I barely have 26000 miles. There is no reason the tires should have worn down this quickly. Within less than two years I will have had to replace all of the tires.
