The vehicle is constantly jerking and jumping every time you accelerate even even when on flat plain city street. I originally had this issue looked at back in January 3, 2020, which I didn't I have the car for 2 weeks then. I then took the vehicle in again February 5, 2020 to get another diagnostic done cause it was doing the exact same thing as before.. they said I need a cat converters. Transmission repair or replacement. I have contacted Nissan corporate and given them the codes that have come up and they're brushing me off.

There is a shaking/shuddering when turning at slow speeds, such as pulling into a parking spot. Additionally, there have been several occasions, in both 2 wheel and auto/4 wheel, where the vehicle makes a thump while turning and/or accelerating. The issues seem to be similar to what tsb no.15-015A refer to. I purchased the vehicle 11/07/18. The thumping first occurred around may/June 2019 and the juddering began today 01/04/20

The vehicle shutters feeling as if it will stall at low RPM between 10mph to 20mph while driving in highway commuter traffic. This was reported to my dealership multiple times at multiple service appointments such as oil changes. The problem was purposely not documented on my service sheets and I learned through the internet of what my problem was when my dealership tells me they could not detect a problem. The cvt has been a known problem when the whole time I thought I had a fuel or electrical problem with my vehicle. The dealership would have known this and kept me in the dark of this problem. I feel very let down by the dealership and Nissan as this has been a problem I known of since 50K miles and the dealership would tell me no problem was detected.

Vehicle has constantly jerked under 30 miles an hour. I had the computer reprogrammed in 2016 per the Nissan recall but the shudder never went away. Nissan said that I had to drive through the shudder. Well today my transmission went out and Nissan said there is nothing they can do. Please do no buy this car.

While driving on the highway I lost the ability to accelerate. I had to coast to the shoulder. I had my 2 young children in the car and this could have led to a terrible accident. The car is 4.5 years old and has under 39,000 miles on it. Nissan has determined the transmission failed and is replacing it under warranty. The transmission problems with the 2013 and 2014 Nissan Pathfinders are well known at this point. It is only a matter of time before someone gets killed. Order a recall now.

The car was unresponsive to acceleration on highway and stalled due to faulty transmission. My wife and two kids were stranded on the highway. I took car in for concerns about transmission at 77 K miles while still under warranty and they said it was fine with no codes. The car has just over 100 K. the car was dead in the water. I had to get car towed to the Nissan dealership one mile away. Doing more research on the transmission and saw the overwhelming evidence that the cvt transmission in the 13 and 14 is absolutely terrible and Nissan knows it. The transmission was out of warranty, but have seen that Nissan knows the transmissions are faulty and have helped people with repair costs. So I contacted Nissan North America and they said I did not meet the criteria for which they would help. I asked what was the criteria? from the information I gathered, they will not help in replacing the transmission unless you have spent a boatload of money at the dealership service center. I had a friend of mine, same thing happened to trans, Nissan paid for 70% of transmission repair. I learned that he had previously spent thousands at the service center on other repairs and he was approved. I argued with Nissan that I am being penalized for having a car that worked well and did not have a bunch of repairs. So the bottom line is that Nissan will help only those who have spent thousands at their service centers. They talked to me about customer loyalty. I said how can I be a loyal customer after this. Nissan has sold a bunch of lies and continues to lie to customers about the transmissions. They should have been a service recall after the overwhelming evidence of the faulty transmission. Never Nissan.

My vehicle shifts into od on its own. The dealership has done a soft reassembly an replaced the guts of the transmission and the issue is still occuring.

My vehicle began to make a knocking noise in the rear when turning. I took the car in to be assessed and was sold a new set of rear shock-absorbers. It was immediately evident that the problem was not resolved, so I took the vehicle back to the dealer service department. They found that the rear differential was failing and shards of metal had broken off. The vehicle was repaired under warranty. The failure occurred at about 50000 miles.

2014 N Pathfinder 83,000 miles- I parked my car when I restarted it 10 min later, white smoke started coming from my exhaust. So much smoke that I was afraid to drive it. I had the car towed to my mechanic. He said that it's defiantly the engine (possible piston ring or stuck valves) he says he's heard of others with the same problem. Googled and see many others with the same problem. Dealer says I'm 8,000 miles out of my extended warranty. Hard to believe this problem seems so wide spread and isn't a recall.
